Udjat

Horus’s sagacious eye. Symbolizes protection and healing. Wadjet (also written as Wedjat, Uadjet, Wedjoyet, Edjo, or Uto, and as The Eye of Ra or “Udjat”) is the goddess who represents the eye. Horus was a sky god in ancient Egypt who was generally represented as a falcon.

The Sun Ra was identified with his right eye. The eye sign reflects the markings around a Peregrine Falcon’s eye, which may include a “teardrop” marking below the eye. The moon and the god Djehuti were sometimes represented as the mirror image, or left eye (Thoth).
