In the Ancient Egyptian measurement system, the Eye of Horus was used a form of fractional notation, each of the parts of the eye representing a different fraction. The parts of the eye were divided as follows:

"1/2 was represented by smell, symbolized by the right side of the eye in a form of the nose. The pyramid text says: "Behold [the fire] rises in Abydos and it comes; I cause it to come, the Eye of Horus. It is set in order upon thy brow, O Osiris Khenti-Amenti; it is set in the shrine and rises on thy brow."

"1/4 was represented by sight or the sensation of light, symbolized by the pupil. The pyramid text says: "Perfect is the Eye of Horus. I have delivered the Eye of Horus, the shining one, the ornament of the Eye of Ra, the Father of the Gods."

"1/8 was represented by thought, symbolized by the eyebrow. The pyramid text says: - the Eye of Horus hath made me holy - I will hide myself among you, O ye stars which are imperishable. My brow is the brow of Ra."

"1/16 was represented by hearing, symbolized by right side of the eye in the form of an arrow pointing towards the ear. The pyramid text says: "That which has been shut fast/dead hath been opened by the command of the Eye of Horus, which hath delivered me. Established are the beauties of the forehead of Ra."

"1/32 was represented by taste, by the sprouting of wheat or grain from the planted stalk, symbolized by a curved tail. The pyramid text says: "Come, the Eye of Horus hath delivered for me my soul, my ornaments are established on the brow of Ra. Light is on the faces of those who are in the members of Osiris."

"1/64 was represented by touch, symbolized by a leg touching the ground. The pyramid text says: "I shall see the Gods and the Eye of Horus burning with fire before my eyes." (from someone on Facebook)


‎THE EYE OF HORUS — THE ANCIENT KEY THAT SEES BEYOND THE VEIL

‎In the sacred sands of Kemet, the Eye of Horus...the Udjat....was not just a symbol carved on temple walls. It was a living force, a spiritual technology, a divine code of protection and awakening.

‎When Horus confronted Set, chaos struck him down and shattered his left eye into pieces. But Thoth, the god of hidden wisdom and magic, gathered each fragment, restored it, and breathed divine light into it once again.

‎Thus, the Eye of Horus became the eternal sign that:
‎What is broken can be made whole again
‎Your spiritual sight can be awakened after darkness
‎Protection surrounds those who walk in truth
‎Chaos can wound you, but it cannot define you
‎Healing is a divine right, not a miracle

‎The Egyptians believed the Eye watched over travelers, guided the dead through the Duat, and illuminated the paths of kings, priests, and mystics.

‎It is the eye that sees the hidden,
‎the eye that restores the lost,
‎the eye that guards your destiny.

‎When you invoke the Eye of Horus, you call upon:
‎The clarity of moonlight
‎The precision of divine mathematics
‎The protection of celestial order
‎The healing power that reassembles the soul

‎May the Eye be upon you.
‎May your intuition sharpen.
‎May your broken pieces return with greater power. And may the ancient light of Horus guide your spirit through every shadow. [anon]
