Eye of Horus Oudjat Wedjat Egyptian Relief | |
|
The eye of Horus also
called Oudjat or
Wedjat, is the left
lunar eye which
originates from the
struggle btween Horus
and Seth. In this
fight, Horus loses
his left eye which is
taken by Seth, but
then Horus acquires
spiritual sight, the
eye of light. The eye
was later healed by
Thoth and returned to
Horus and then called
the Oudjat (the Whole
One). It was a symbol
of the power of the
God of light, and
therefore a popular
amulet for protection
and good luck. Some
oudjat eyes had an
arm carrying the Ankh
or the papyrus staff,
symbol for to
flourish. The eye of
Horus was also used
as a protection
against the evil eye.
From the late old
kingdom, two oudjat
eyes were placed on
the door recesses of
tombs.
