Eyes have been symbolic in magic since the beginning of time. Whether it's known as the all-seeing eye or the evil eye, the idea of protecting yourself from the harmful gaze of others has been part of global traditions for centuries, if not longer.

Today, get crafty and create your own amulets for protection by painting eyes on rocks and placing them in any space that you feel needs a little extra guardianship. Not only will they add a little extra pop and decoration to your space but they will also protect it. You will need the following:

• Unpolished river rocks
• Acrylic paint
• Paintbrushes

Create sacred space however you choose, then start painting eyes on the rocks. While doing so, put into the rocks the energy that they will guard and protect wherever you place them from any negativity and harm. Set them out in the sun to charge and dry, and when you are ready, place them around your home and garden.
