What is the Evil Eye Symbol?

The evil eye symbol is most well-known as four concentric circles in the shape of an eye.

The outer circle is dark blue, followed by a white circle, and the inner circle is a lighter blue, with a black iris shape in the middle.

Traditionally, the evil eye symbol is a circle, but these days it can also have an outer shape of an eye, with the center being the traditional 4 circle shape.

The evil eye symbol can also be incorporated inside of other talismans, like a hamsa.

What Does the Evil Eye Symbol Mean?

The evil eye symbol has been used throughout the world to ward off evil, usually curses that were cast on someone without their knowledge.

Using an evil eye symbol throughout your home (or wearing one) protects you from negative outcomes – both small and large.

Essentially the evil eye protects you from others who wish you harm.

How Does the Feng Shui Evil Eye Work?

In feng shui, the evil eye symbol is used to protect you and everyone in your household from negative energy being sent your way.

It can be used throughout your home or outside your front door to shield your home and deflect negative Chi.

It can also be worn as jewelry, used as a talisman, kept in your car, used within artwork, or even displayed as a feng shui evil eye tree.

When Should You Use The Feng Shui Cure for the Evil Eye?

You can use the evil eye cure in feng shui in many different ways.

Most notably, the evil eye symbol can help you when:

You feel like you or your family is cursed with bad luck.

This can be a string of bad things happening or just feeling unlucky your whole life.

You can use the evil eye symbol as protection to ward off bad luck.

You are surrounded by negative energy.

If you’re going through an especially hard time and find yourself surrounded by negative energy, you can wear an evil eye to protect your energy.

You can also pair it with crystals for protection and grounding to make it even more powerful.

You had something especially bad happen.

If you had a random negative event happen in your life (like a car accident, illness, or financial disaster) the evil eye can keep that bad energy from spilling over into the rest of your life.

You’ve had a lot of good things happen to you (or your family) and people around you seem jealous.

One of the most traditional uses of the evil eye is for protection from jealousy.

Many cultures don’t speak of their successes because they don’t want too much attention from others.

Using the evil eye can help you ward off that negative attention.

You’ve had bad things happen to your home.

If you live in a neighborhood full of negative energy, have bad neighbors, or just generally feel uneasy or unsafe in your home, the evil eye can help you create an energetic bubble of protection around your home.

You moved into a new home and can’t seem to feel grounded and centered.

It’s possible your new home is carrying predecessor energy from previous occupants.

You can perform an energetic cleanse of your home to remove negative energy and then use the evil eye as ongoing protection.

You feel like you’re being watched.

If you just feel uncomfortable all of the time or you feel like someone’s watching you and you can’t shake it, wearing the evil eye as a talisman can help protect you.

If you feel like you’re being watched in a certain place (like your home, office, etc) then you can place the evil eye near where you most feel that energy to help get rid of it.

Also, consider smudging that area or using a DIY smudge spray to help get rid of the negative energy.

Bonus tip: The evil eye can be used anytime you need to get rid of negative energy. If you’re not sure whether or not your home has negative energy, you can check out this post: Symptoms of Negative Energy in Your Home (& What Causes It!)

Outside your front door.

The front door is how energy enters your home and it is one of the foundations of feng shui.

You can hang an evil eye on your door, use an evil eye doormat, or even just draw a small evil eye somewhere near your front door to help protect your entire home.

In your front yard.

You can hang an evil eye pendant or talisman anywhere in your front yard to protect your entire property.

Between you and negative neighbors or bad energy.

If you have a negative neighbor and you’d like extra protection, place an evil eye somewhere along the wall that faces that neighbor.

You can do this inside or outside of your home.

How to Use the Feng Shui Evil Eye Symbol

One thing to keep in mind when using the feng shui evil eye symbol is that less is more.

In feng shui, small things can make a BIG impact!

You do not need to place the evil eye all over your home in order for it to work.

While the evil eye has a long history of protection, and therefore its own energetic footprint, YOU are still the one giving it power!

Your belief is the most important piece of the puzzle.

If you feel drawn to using the evil eye then chances are extremely high that it will work for you.

But if you feel drawn to using some other form of protection, like crystals, smudging, or feng shui mirrors, then those will work too!

You don’t have to place any of these feng shui cures all over your home in order to protect it.

In fact, doing so might make you feel even less protected because you’re being reminded that you aren’t safe everywhere you look.

That being said, here’s how to use the feng shui evil eye for protection throughout your home:

  1. Decide how you’d like to use it and where it will go. For example, if you want to protect your home from outside negative energy, you could place it near your front door or in your yard.
  2. Clean and smudge your home to create a clean energetic footprint. You can find details of how to smudge in these posts:
  3. Place the evil eye in your desired location. When doing so, set the intention that it is going to work for you! Repeat your intention to yourself, for example “I intend that all negative and evil vibrations are deflected and returned to their rightful owner.”
  4. It is done! The evil eye is now going to work for you!

Any time you feel like it, you can smudge and cleanse your home and your evil eye in order to reset its intentions and keep it working for you!
