DID
THEY LOOK BECAUSE YOU TRIPPED, OR DID YOU TRIP BECAUSE THEY
LOOKED?!? All around the
Mediterranean, through Greece, Turkey, and even into Central
Asia, people believe in and fear the "Evil Eye". What is it?
It's bad luck transmitted, usually without intention or
malice, by the envious stares of others. How can you protect
against it? The "nazar boncuk" (aka "evil eye") charm. A
common item of decoration in any Turkish home, car, or on any
person, the evil eye charm stares back at the world and wards
off that bad luck. In that part of the world, you can see the
charm above doorways, on the bumpers of cars, or worn around
someone's neck or wrist. And especially, always, pinned to the
shirts of newborn babies!
