What causes eye twitching? A common cause of eyelid twitching is ocular myokymia. This is benign and does not lead to other problems. Ocular myokymia can be caused by being tired, having too much caffeine, or stress. One cause of persistent, frequent eye twitching is a condition called benign essential blepharospasm.
In essence, the curse of the evil eye is not a complicated concept; it stems from the belief that someone who achieves great success or recognition also attracts the envy of those around them. That envy in turn manifests itself as a curse that will undo their good fortune.
To see and hear the hidden things of God requires spiritual eyes and ears. Hunger for spiritual truth requires awakened senses, and to love the things of God requires a new heart. (See Ezekiel 11:19 and 36:26.) God alone is the source of spiritual eyes and undivided hearts.
The evil eye is a “look” or “stare” that is believed to bring bad luck for the person at whom it is directed for reasons of envy or dislike. The perception of the nature of the phenomenon, its causes, and possible protective measures, varies between tribes and cultures.

The body also has its own sense, that is, the left eye, and its own appetite, that is, the left hand. But the parts of the soul are called right, for the soul was created both with free-will and under the law of righteousness, that it might both see and do rightly.
Eyes expressed the innermost feelings and desires of the heart. Therefore a ‘good eye’ revealed morally good and generous intentions, while an ’evil eye’ exposed an evil heart with wicked intentions of envy, greed and jealousy (Kotze 2007:143).

The Color of God’s Eyes Are Blue.
The “eyes are windows to the soul” is an old proverb suggesting that the eyes are the windows into how you feel or what you are thinking. When we talk to people, we use body language to emphasize points.
In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus urges his followers to turn the other cheek: You have heard that it was said, “An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.” But I say to you, Do not resist the one who is evil. But if anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also.

The Book of Genesis reminds us that when God created the world, God created humanity “in the Divine Image.” The soul imbued within each of us is equally divine and pure. The Jewish sages teach that this common ancestry reminds us we are all equal and worthy of the same dignity and respect.
When it comes to our vision, both brain hemispheres control both eyes but “each one takes charge of a different half of the field of vision, and therefore a different half of both retinas”. This means that there is no direct connection between which hand we use and which eye is our dominant one.

Superstitions tell us that the left eye twitching means something bad is going to happen in our lives, while the right eye twitching means something good is about to happen. Science, however, provides us with far more grounded answers.
If you are talking to someone one-on-one (or looking at people within a group), choose a spot directly between or slightly above the listener’s eyes. If this doesn’t feel comfortable, try letting your eyes go slightly out of focus, which has the added benefit of softening and relaxing your gaze.
