This textile design was inspired by one of the most powerful talismans in history, one that is used and revered across many cultures, ancient and modern alike. From Ancient Greece and Rome, to Eastern Europe, to India and across the continent of Africa, and even Mexico, you will find the evil eye in some capacity. It is mentioned in Christian, Jewish, Islamic, Hindu and Buddhist texts, as well as those of smaller lesser known religions. The evil eye has always fascinated me—not so much for its powers of protection, but for the sheer amount of ground it covers and the way the stories intertwine across religion and culture.
In a former life I studied religion and anthropology of the Middle East, and—before ditching my thesis entirely and moving onto a sailboat—I spent a solid year researching the evil eye and mulling over ways to treat it as a thesis topic. So needless to say, this is one of my favorite subjects.
Bringing this symbol into your home is bringing in powerful protection. The eye itself is treated as a sort of talisman against being on the receiving end of “the evil eye” or a jealous or spiteful energy directed at you by another person. In some countries, such as Greece, even an admiring gaze can trigger the bad luck of the evil eye. Some mothers take action by pinning evil eye symbols onto their babies’ clothes so that any admirers will not bring on bad luck to the child.
Beyond its protective powers in warding off bad luck and evil, the eye is a powerful symbol in its own right. The eye symbolizes light, clairvoyance, and a connection to one’s higher self. The eye symbolizes a singular focus on one’s desired future. In Feng Shui the protection offered by the evil eye is said to bring good fortune, peace and enhance positive energy.
