Most cultures around the world believe in its properties to ward off the evil eye. In North Africa, mothers apply kohl to their infants soon after they are born. The Arabic term kohl—known as kuul in the Horn of Africa, kajal in South Asia, sormeh in Persia—today denotes the eyeliner that Egyptians, around 2000 BCE, called mesdemet, a word that meant, “mineral powder to render the eye expressive”. 

Wearing Kajal also protects you from warding off spirits and negativity alike. The darkness of the kajal was historically meant to scare off anyone peering at you with an evil eye. Religious figures are decorated with kajal, one quite notably named Kali Ma or Dark Mother. Kohl was associated with the deities Horus, Ra and Hathor and was regularly used in ritual. Egyptians also exaggerated their eyes with bold liner in veneration of the gods, as they believed it possessed magical properties in providing protection from diseases and warded off the Evil Eye. 

According to astrology, Kajal's unique components can aid in the removal of Kaal Sarp Dosha. A planetary defect known as mangal dosha can lead to a number of issues for the native.
