Evil Eye Protection Oil & Talisman

DescriptionThe evil eye is a curse or legend believed to be cast by a malevolent glare, usually given to a person when they are unaware. Many cultures believe that receiving the evil eye will cause misfortune or injury, while others believe it to be a kind of supernatural force that casts or reflects a malevolent gaze back-upon those who wish harm upon others (especially innocents). Talismans or amulets created to protect against the evil eye are also frequently called “evil eyes”.Attempts to ward off the curse have resulted in a number of talismans in many cultures. Disks or balls representing an evil eye are common apotropaic talismans and in some forms of the folklore, the staring eyes are supposed to bend the malicious gaze back to the sorcerer. As a class, they are called “apotropaic” (Greek for “prophylactic” or “protective”, literally: “turns away”) talismans, meaning that they turn back harm.Known as nazar (Turkish: nazar boncuğu or nazarlık), this talisman is most frequently seen in Turkey, found in or on houses and vehicles or worn as beads.The idea expressed by the term causes many different cultures to pursue protective measures against it. The concept and its significance vary widely among different cultures, but it is especially prominent in the Mediterranean, West Asia, and the idea appears multiple times in Jewish rabbinic literature.Charms and decorations with eye-like symbols are a common sight across Cyprus, Greece, Portugal, Brazil, Israel, Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Albania, Algeria, Tunisia, Lebanon, Turkey, Palestine, Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Bangladesh, Iran, Iraq, Italy, Nepal, Pakistan, parts of India, Morocco, southern Spain, parts of Mexico, Malta, Romania, Bulgaria, the Balkans, the Levant, Afghanistan, Syria, and Bahrain, and have become a popular choice of souvenir with tourists.
