Color of the day: White
Incense of the day: Honeysuckle Some people are born with the malignant ability to ruin the joy of others with a glance or stare. One of the most famous amulets against the evil eye is the Egyptian udjat, or Eye of Horus. Greeks, Lebanese, and the Turkish are known to wear glass pendants of white and blue eyes set in silver. Huichol Indians of modern Mexico make eye amulets called ojos de dios, or "eyes of God," to protect homes, fields, and communities. A potent deterrent is to paint white and blue eyes on a piece of white cotton cloth or on a piece of cardboard and display these in the home. Smaller ones may be painted for carrying on your person. |
