Eye of Horus Symbol
Most people are familiar with the Eye of Horus, a symbol consisting of an eye from which two lines, one straight and one curved, extends from it. Taken from the ancient Egyptians, the Eye of Horus was formerly called Wadjet or Udjat (from the ancient Egyptian goddess), the Eye of the Moon and later, the Eye of Ra). It is used as a sign of royal power or protection from evil.
The eye is said to be one of the eyes of Horus, the falcon-headed sky god who was the son of Isis and Osiris. His left eye is believed to represent the moon while his right eye is said to represent the sun. Ancient myths state that Horus’ left eye was torn by Seth to avenge his father’s death. Thoth, the god of wisdom and magic, found the pieces and reassembled them into the full moon. Thoth then returned the eye to Horus, who, in turn, gave it back to his father, thereby bringing him to life.
Because of this, it is said that the Eye of Horus is a symbol for the respect and reverence for parents. Ancient Egyptians used the symbol as a son’s offering on his father’s tomb. It was also used to ward of sickness and evil. The Eye of Horus was also placed over the cuts made by embalmers to take out the internal organs before mummifying corpses. The symbol was supposed to protect the deceased against bad luck.
This powerful symbol can be divided into pieces that represent fractions of a descending geometric series. Each individual part of the eye were given fractional values, starting from 1 divided by 2 (1/2), which is further halved (1/4) and so on until its smallest value of 1/64. Although people say that the total values of the parts when added, amounted to 1, the fact is, the parts only add up to 63/64. It is said that Thot had kept the missing 1/64 by virtue of magic. This fractional system of the Eye of Horus was used to record land, grains and prescriptions during the ancient times. This might have been the reason why the symbol for medicine (Rx) was taken from the Eye of Horus itself.
Today, the Eye of Horus can still be seen engraved on rings and bracelets, made as Eye of Horus pendant or drawn in paintings and illustrations. Many people still use the symbol for protection against evil or to keep away sickness.
