So many ask about “the eye” this is the history behind this symbol we see often…
The Mexican evil eye (Mal de Ojo)The evil eye is a supernatural belief in a curse brought about by a malevolent glare, usually inspired by envy. Amulets to protect against it have been found dating to around 5,000 years ago.
Many countries believe in the superstition of the “evil eye” including Greece, Turkey, and Mexico. In Mexico, this is known as “el mal de ojo” and it is said that people can make you sick or cause something bad to happen to you simply with a look.
This belief has its roots in ancient Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cultures and was brought to Mexico by Spanish settlers.
The evil eye is often blamed for a variety of ailments, from headaches to unexplained illnesses.
If someone looks at you intently, or with extreme anger, they can pass negative energy on to you. Some people are so concerned about the mal de ojo that they purchase talismans to defend against it.
