The evil eye is the name for a sickness transmitted -- usually
without intention -- by someone who is envious, jealous, or covetous. It is
also called the invidious eye and the envious eye. In Hebrew it is ayin ha'ra
(the evil eye), which in Yiddish is variously spelled ayin horoh, ayin hora, or
ayen hara. In mainland Italian it is mal occhio (the bad eye) and in Spanish
mal ojo or el ojo (the bad eye or just the eye). In Sicily it is jettatore (the
projection [from the eye]) and in Farsi it is bla band (the eye of evil).
The evil eye belief is that a person -- otherwise not
malific in any way -- can harm you, your children, your livestock, or your
fruit trees, by *looking at them* with envy and praising them. The word
"evil" is unfortunate in this context because it implies that someone
has "cursed" the victim, but such is not the case. A better
understanding of the term "evil eye" is gained if you know that the
old British and Scottish word for it is "overlooking," which implies
merely that the gaze has remained too long upon the coveted object, person, or
animal. In other words, the effect of the evil eye is misfortunate, but the
person who harbours jealousy and gives the evil eye is not necessarily an evil
person per se.
