Description
Ojo de Dios is Spanish for "eye of God." Early Spaniards discovered them when encountering the Huichol Indians in the Sierra Madre mountains of Mexico. There they saw brightly woven yarn on simple frames of two crossed sticks. The Ojo de Dios is a symbol of the power of seeing and understanding unseen things. The four points of the crossed sticks represent earth, air, water, and fire. They were placed on altars so that their gods would protect and watch over those who prayed at the altars. Making an Ojo de Dios expresses a prayer that the Eye of God will watch over them. The Ojo de Dios is also a physical representation of praying for health, fortune and a long life. To many, it means a prayer for May the eye of God be upon
