Eye of Horus Symbolism Son of Osiris & Isis, Horus, During
his battle with Set to avenge the murder of his father, Osiris, Horus'
eye was plucked out and torn apart. After his victory, the eye was
pieced together by Thoth who added a small bit of magic to make up
for the 1/64th of a piece that was missing. In ancient Egypt, it the
symbol was a powerful amulet. The eye was painted on boats and other
objects in need of divine protection. Jeweled copies of the eye were
placed with the dead and painted on sarcophagi.
The Eye of Horus was believed to have healing and
protective power, and it was used as a mathematical device to prepare
medications. The masonic all seeing eye, the eye symbol found on American
money, and our modern Rx symbol are all derived from the Eye of Horus.
The Eye of Horus is also known as: Udjat, Wedjat,
Eye of God, The All Seeing Eye
