Have you ever noticed someone giving you “that look” — a glance filled with envy or judgment — and suddenly things start going wrong? Many cultures call this the Evil Eye, or in India, Nazar. Whether you truly believe it or not, one thing’s for sure: energy is real, and so are its effects on our mood, luck, and wellbeing.
If you’ve ever wondered what the Evil Eye symbol actually means, what it protects you from, and why so many people wear Evil Eye bracelets, this guide will help you uncover it all — along with how to pick the right one for yourself or a loved one.
The Hidden Meaning Behind the Evil Eye Symbol
The Evil Eye is more than just a blue-and-white bead or charm — it’s one of the world’s oldest symbols of protection.
Across cultures, people have believed in the “power of the gaze” — that someone’s jealousy or negative thoughts can bring harm, consciously or unconsciously. That’s where the Evil Eye symbol comes in.
-
In Turkey and Greece, it’s called Nazar Boncugu or Mati.
-
In India, it’s known as Buri Nazar or simply Nazar.
-
In Egypt, it’s connected to the ancient “Eye of Horus.”
No matter where you go, the meaning stays the same — to deflect negative energy, jealousy, and misfortune, and restore peace to the person who wears or keeps it.
At Calminds, every Evil Eye crystal bracelet and décor piece carries this ancient protection, handcrafted with care and infused with Reiki energy to strengthen its vibration.
The Science and Spirituality Behind Evil Eye Beliefs
Even modern science agrees that emotions and intentions carry energy. Studies on “emotional contagion” show that we absorb other people’s moods — whether it’s happiness or hostility.
Spiritually speaking, the Evil Eye stone acts as a mirror — reflecting harmful energy back to its source. Its blue color symbolizes calm and stability, while the circle shape represents the cycle of protection that never ends.
When combined with crystals like Amethyst, Black Tourmaline, or Moonstone, the energy becomes even more powerful. That’s why at Calminds, each Reiki Evil Eye bracelet is not only symbolic but also energetically activated to guard your aura and balance your emotions.
Evil Eye vs. Nazar: Are They the Same Thing?
People often ask: “Is the Evil Eye the same as Nazar?”
The answer is — almost!
The Evil Eye refers to the symbol — the blue eye charm used in jewelry and décor.
Nazar, on the other hand, refers to the curse or negative energy itself.
So while Nazar is the harmful energy, the Evil Eye is the shield that protects you from it.
In Indian culture, we see people hanging lemons and chilies at their doors or applying a black dot to a baby’s forehead — all are ways to ward off Nazar. Today, many people wear Evil Eye bracelets or keep Evil Eye wall hangings for the same purpose — just in a more modern, stylish way.
