The real evil eye is a curse transmitted through a malicious glare, often fueled by envy. It's not the amulet itself, but rather the negative energy projected from one person to another.
Here's a breakdown:
-
The "Evil Eye" Curse: This is the actual malevolent force. It's believed to be a negative energy projection caused by envy or malice, intended to bring misfortune to the recipient. This is the real evil eye.
-
The Evil Eye Amulet (Nazar): This is a protective charm designed to ward off the evil eye curse. It's a talisman or amulet, usually blue and white, often featuring an eye symbol. The amulet is meant to deflect the negative energy back to its source or absorb it. Therefore, the amulet is a defense against the evil eye, not the evil eye itself.
In essence, think of it this way: the evil eye is the attack, and the evil eye amulet is the shield. The real evil eye is the malevolent glare and its associated negative energy.
