The Utchat

Uncover hidden superstitions meanings

Much importance was attached to this lucky talisman in Egypt, the Utchat, or Eye.

The word Utchat means primarily “strength”, and was at the summer solstice (about June 22nd), applied to the Sun at that time when at its greatest strength and power on earth. The Eye of Horus was supposed to bring strength, vigour, safety, good health, and protection to the wearer. Many of these charms were engraved by the Egyptians with the 140th chapter of their book of the Dead. This was considered to endow the Utchat with particularly strong and effective magical powers.
