Picking the Optimal Wrist for Your Protective Eye Bracelet
You’ve got your gorgeous new evil eye bracelet – but which wrist should you wear it on? Some say the left offers the most protection, while others argue for the right. Let’s examine the symbolic reasoning behind wearing evil eye jewelry on your dominant versus non-dominant hand.
Left Wrist Symbolism
According to old traditions, an evil eye bracelet belongs on the left wrist. In many cultures, the left side represents intuition, feminine energy and the irrational.
Wearing the amulet on the left trusts instinct to detect hidden ill will. The left also receives energy coming toward you.
Right Wrist Symbolism
Other beliefs designate the right wrist for evil eye bracelets. Associated with logic, action and masculine energy, the right side activates the bracelet’s power to assertively block envy’s harm.
The right projects your own energy outward to resist envy.
Based on Dominant Hand
Some say whichever is your non-dominant hand optimizes the bracelet’s reception – left for right-handedness, right for left. Wearing it on the passive hand charges it through your unconscious mind.
The dominant hand asserts intention, while the non-dominant absorbs.
Gender-Based Traditions
Historically, men wore evil eye jewelry on the right wrist, women on the left. This honors gender-based associations of the right for masculine energy, left for feminine.
But gender norms evolve, so wear what intuitively feels right.
Test Both Wrists
See what works for your individual needs by testing. Wear the bracelet on your left wrist for a week, then switch to the right. Notice when and where you feel it absorbing negativity most strongly.
Let personal experience guide you to the ideal wrist.
While tradition offers reasoning for each side, ultimately how your bracelet feels matters most. Allow your self-wisdom to determine the hand that optimizes its protective powers.
