CJ--I want to know more about this! We have our own evil eye exorcist right here in the house--She's Greek and often is called on to take the evil eye off someone. This involves Holy Water and making the sign of the cross and counting. If you have the Evil Eye the exorcist gets a fit of sneezing and coughing and tears running down her face. Once a Greek lady took the Evil Eye off my son when he was about six and the minute the Holy Water hit his forehead he projectile vomited across the room. Just like Linda Blair!
In case you didn't see, I detailed the breaking the Evil Eye ritual on my blog.

As you probably know, tonight is the beginning of
Passover. You may also know that tonight
we have a full moon—and the full moon will experience a total eclipse,
climaxing between 3:07 and 4:25 Eastern Standard Time tomorrow morning (April
15—income tax day.).
But did you know that the moon will appear to be red in
color and that this is referred to as a “Blood Moon”? And even more rare—tonight’s blood moon will
be the first of four such full moons—each appearing six months after the last
one—occurring through 2014 and 2015.
Four blood moons are called a Lunar Tetrad and a Tetrad, according to
the Bible –is what will happen to mark the end of days.
“The sun will be turned to darkness, and the moon to blood
before the great and dreadful day of the LORD comes.”
(This theory has been publicized by Pastor John Hagee in his
2013 book “Four Blood Moons: Something is About to Change.”)
So are you ready for the end of the world?
Happy Passover!
Pesach Sameach!
P.S. I don’t really believe this, of course, but I’m always
fascinated by superstitions and the way they are often shared by completely
unrelated ethnic groups and how they often seem to have roots in ancient
pre-Christian times.
Here’s one that I heard recently, first as a Greek
superstition, then I learned it was also a popular belief in Viet Nam: If two siblings get married in the same year,
one of those marriages will end in divorce.
But why?
Do you have any mysterious superstitions to share?

My mother had a ritual for breaking the Evil Eye.
