EVIL EYE PROTECTION CHARMS...
There is a widespread belief in
Envy is the emotion that is most often thought to cause the phenomenon. However, excessive love, devotion, or admiration, are also thought to inadvertently cast the evil eye. Mothers are often warned that their devotion to their children can cast the evil eye and they should take precautions against it.
The most common method used to ward off the evil eye is to wear an eye-shaped object or bead. This object is commonly called “ evil eye” but it protects from, rather than castes evil eye. A single bead may be pinned to the clothes or more beads can be incorporated into a necklace or bracelet. Amulets are hung in the home.
The evil eye affects not only people but also animal, plants, and buildings. Thus you will often see the evil eye hanging in homes or cars, on a good milking cow, a fat calf, or even a dog or cat. KHAMSA – HAND OF
KHAMSA (Arabic) or HAMESH (Hebrew) means FIVE. In Arabic this talisman is also called Hand of Fatima in reference to the daughter of Mohammed. An alternative Jewish name is Hand of Miriam, referring to the sister of Moses and Aaron. In either culture the hand serves as an ancient talismanic way of gaining protection from the EVIL EYE… or, more generally, it represents the protecting Hand of God. Actually, the hand as talisman predates all modern religions. It has been found in the ruins of ancient Mediterranean civilizations well before the advent of Jewish, Muslim or Christian faiths.
