Even those little things are radiating CZ details or gold plating, especially our latest batch of New Arrivals: Gold Evil Eye & Hamsa Jewelry. Though these styles appear small, they are mighty with their meaning.
In today's blog post, we will explore the true meaning behind hamsa and evil eyes, how these styles help with radiating positivity & light, and how you can incorporate these designs into your jewelry style.
The Meaning Behind Hamsa & Evil Eye
These symbols are not only universally recognized, they are still worn even after thousands of years after their origin. The evil eye is a belief that certain envious or negative glances can bring harm, misfortune, or bad luck onto yourself. Normally worn in the form of a blue eye, you can wear it as a form of protection.
The Hamsa Hand has been worn for centuries to ward off evil, attract blessings, & to bring good luck. Even the directionality of how you wear the hand can signify the type of energy you are trying to attract. A hand facing down is to bring good fortune, abundance, & prosperity, while the hand facing up is a shield against negative energy & evil.
