The eyeball curse

[Ihavewings]

I was just curios if anyone ever heard of something like this, over here where I am from. We have this thing called "eyeball curse" basically it is when people adore you or adore something you have and are also jealous. Then the victim has badluck until treated.

I don't know if this is exactly how it works, but I just wanted to discuss this.

It's called the "evil eye".

It's popular in middle eastern spiritual traditions and in some asian cultures (like india).  It has become popular in the New Age movement in the west as well.

The general idea is that you essentially get cursed because someone gives you the "evil eye".

You can get amulets and rings and stuff that depict an eye that is meant to be protection from the curse.

If you believe in that sort of thing.

Wow, I'm still learning about how it works so if anyone could explain I would be more then happy.


I know that my family experienced this, and they had to go to some spiritual guy who gave them an oil they rubbed all over their body. If I can remember well I think they also had to eat this certain food and get a trusted person to throw something where they would never pass.

that's a typical evil eye amulet.

to me it's superstition.  but hey, i don't know everything.

Active jealousy?

Jealousy and envy are bad enough traits that emanate from people without having them being able to manifest it on the recipient.
