Eye and superstitions?

Question

Left eye keeps jumping what does that mean ,help me out here.

Answer 1

Supposedly - If your right eye twitches there will soon be a birth in the family. If the left eye twitches there will soon be a death in the family.

That said; it's not related to the idea of the "evil eye" - which is a taboo about looking at someone with a fixed stare.

The left side was sometimes a part of superstitious lore since the word for left in latin is the same root for "sinister" or maleficent. This is something like an anti-left handedness prejudice and has no basis in anything real.

Superstitions aside - it's most likely just fatigue, an infection of the eye, or possibly a reason to visit a dentist, toothdecay can cause an infection that puts pressure on the facial nerves, sometimes causing the nerves to twitch uncontrollably as you describe.

Answer 2

evil eye, malochia, or psychic vampirism does exists, in any culture and any religion, some people just are not aware that they can absorb the energy of other people or even plants and animals thus rendering the victim weak, having headaches, lost appetite, plants die,etc. The cure is to apply your saliva on the affected are, sometimes applied with dirt and al-ruqya is recited (the 3 last chapter of the quran). many people in cities are mostly unaware of this conditions bc there are many drugs that can cover (not cure) such conditions.
