Evil Eye Protection: Complete Guide to the Nazar Amulet & Meaning
By Nicole, Founder of Mystic Ryst
The evil eye is one of the most ancient and universal protection symbols, used across cultures for thousands of years to ward off negative energy, jealousy, and ill intentions. The iconic blue and white eye symbol—known as the nazar in Turkish tradition—deflects harmful energy and protects the wearer from the malevolent gaze of others.
Whether worn as jewelry, hung in your home, or carried as a talisman, the evil eye symbol is a powerful shield against negativity. It's not just superstition—it's an energetic boundary that says "your negative energy cannot touch me."
This is your complete guide to evil eye protection—what it is, how it works, and how to use it.
What Is the Evil Eye?
The Curse
The "evil eye" is a curse believed to be cast by a malevolent glare—usually given when someone is jealous, envious, or has ill intentions toward you. This negative energy can cause misfortune, illness, or bad luck.
The Protection
