The Witching Hour: Evil Eye

An exploration of the evil eye and what to do if you feel it

The "evil eye" is a widespread belief found in many cultures around the world, rooted in the idea that a person can cause harm simply by casting a jealous or envious gaze upon someone else. This look is thought to bring bad luck, misfortune, or even illness to the unsuspecting person. Often unintentional, the evil eye reflects the power of negative energy focused through attention, especially when driven by resentment or ill will.

In this episode we discuss it’s history and origins, how you know if you might have an evil eye upon you, and things you can do to protect against or repel it!
