Discover the history of the Turkish eye, one of the most important protective amulets, before you decide to take it with you.

Have you felt a strange discomfort when you notice that a person sees you? You need a Turkish eye . That sensation is the famous “evil eye” that everyone runs away from. One of the beliefs in the spiritual world is that the eyes are the escape route from bad energies and negative feelings (such as envy, resentment, or hatred); Since it is not something that not even the person transmitting those vibes can keep within themselves, you need a protective object that is responsible for creating a barrier and can absorb all those charges for you .

Its History And Meaning

The amulet that can do all this is known as the “Turkish eye” because it was created in Turkey (duh..!), although technically it is called “nazar” , a word derived from the Arabic naẓara (نظر), which means “sight” or “see.” Its original shape is a flat drop with concentric circles that, from the inside out, are dark blue or black, light blue, white and dark blue. It works best if you carry it with you all the time in a necklace , because it is easier for it to receive bad energies from your chest, but you can also use it in bracelets, rings, or even as a decoration for your house. Of course, today it is applied to notebooks, cell phone cases, screen protectors, among others.

It is also known as the “Greek eye” due to its connection with Greek mythology. Legend has it that ancient Greek sailors put or painted amulets on their ships to ask Poseidon, God of the seas, Zeus, God of thunder, and Hermes, God of travelers, for protection on their expeditions . Hence, the Turkish eye is made up of two shades of blue (related to the sea) plus white (related to the sky), thus representing the three deities.

However, currently variants of the original colors have been emerging, each with its respective meaning.

  • Blue: symbolizes good Karma and protects from bad energies.
  • Light blue: represents truth and purity.
  • Red: protect people in love, passion and desire.
  • Yellow: take care of your health.
  • Green: attracts hope and personal growth.
  • White: purifies energies.

What Does it Mean When the Turkish Eye Breaks?

Because the Turkish eye is made of glass , it has a certain lifespan. The moment it breaks or breaks without you having dropped it or thrown it away, it will mean that it has already fulfilled its mission of protecting you from the evil eye. It overwhelmed his ability to retain the bad thoughts, feelings and intentions of another person, so he thundered. Don’t worry, this will not affect you in any way, it will simply be the indicator that you need a new Turkish eye that continues to protect you.
