The evil eye is a look that is believed by many cultures to be able to
cause injury or bad luck for the person at whom it is directed for reasons
of envy or dislike. The term also refers to the power
attributed to
certain persons of inflicting injury or bad luck by such an envious or
ill-wishing look.
The "evil eye" is also known as (عين الحسود) and mal de ojo.
Talisman, (Evil Eyes), is an object which you believe has magic powers to
protect you or bring you luck. Turkish people believe
that it absorbs bad energy coming from
evil eyes. Usually, no one leaves
Turkey without purchasing a blue and white evil eye charm. No
place
of
business or home is without one. They come in many styles, from simple
to ornate. Usually, they are made of
glass but also can be made of
plastic. Legend has it that it
protects you from "bad luck". "Bad luck"
translates into
evil or harm wished upon you
from
another. When a child is born, an
evil eye is pinned
to
the garment on his or her right back shoulder for protection from other
people's evil wishes. Many individuals wore protective
evil eyes amulets
or charms to nullify its
effects.
The idea expressed by the term causes many cultures to pursue protective
measures against it. The concept and its significance vary widely among
different cultures, primarily the Middle East. The idea appears several
times in translations (Tirgumim) of the Old Testament.It was a widely
extended belief among many Mediterranean tribes and cultures: It started
in Classical Greece and
later passed to
ancient Rome
In
