Our logo - the Horus Eye

Our logo is the Eye of Horus or Wadjet, one of the strongest symbols in Ancient Egypt.
It represents protection, resurrection and health.

The myth behind the strong symbol is to be found in the early tales of Egypt when the Gods ruled. The god Seth killed his brother Osiris and scattered his body all over Egypt. Osiris’s wife the goddess Isis gathered his body and resurrected him. Isis conceived a divine child. Isis gave birth to Horus, and Osiris became the king of the underworld instead. When Horus grew up he wanted to avenge his father’s death, and got into fights with Seth. During one of these fights, Seth tore out Horus’s eye and split it in six parts. The goddess Hathor restored the eye and this is why the eye still today represents protection, resurrection and healing.

You will still see Egyptians todays use the symbol for protection. They paint it on their homes, their cars, their fishing boats, and it is also common to wear jewelry with the eye for protection.
