Onyx is a variety of chalcedony, a cryptocrystaline form of quartz, recognised for her smooth texture and deep, rich colours. While most commonly found in striking shades of black, onyx can also occur in other colours such as white, brown and green. She often exhibits layered patterns, reflecting her formation over time as silica deposits in gas cavities of lava. Onyx is predominantly sourced from Brazil, India and the United States. 


Onyx is known as a stone of grounding, protection and inner strength. She is believed to absorb negative energy, shielding the wearer from harm while promoting emotional stability and self-control. Onyx resonates with the root chakra, anchoring the spirit firmly into the physical body and fostering a sense of balance and security. Her energy is thought to enhance concentration, self-discipline, and decision-making, making her an excellent companion during times of stress, confusion, or personal challenge. Onyx is often used to help release fear and anxiety, encouraging perseverance and resilience in the face of adversity.

Physical
It is said that onyx may support the body’s endurance and strength. Traditionally, she has been used to promote physical stamina and aid in recovery from illness or injury by enhancing vitality and promoting healing. Onyx is also thought to assist with issues related to the bones, teeth, and feet, helping to stabilize the body and increase physical resilience. Her grounding energy is believed to help reduce stress and support overall physical balance, making her a useful stone for those who need extra support during physically or emotionally taxing times.

Emotional
Emotionally, onyx is a stone of emotional stability and fortitude. She is said to help release negative emotions, such as fear, anger and grief, by absorbing them and transforming them into positive energy. Onyx promotes emotional strength and resilience, encouraging individuals to face challenges with determination and calm. Her energy is particularly useful for those dealing with emotional upheaval, helping to foster a sense of inner peace and self-control. Onyx also assists in breaking free from unhealthy emotional patterns, supporting personal growth and transformation.

Spiritual
Spiritually, onyx is closely connected to the root chakra, making her a powerful stone for grounding and protection. She anchors spiritual energy into the physical realm, helping individuals feel more connected to the Earth and their physical existence. Onyx is also believed to enhance spiritual discipline and focus, making her an excellent stone for meditation and spiritual practices. Her protective energy shields the aura from negative influences and promotes a strong sense of personal security, allowing individuals to explore spiritual growth without fear or distraction.

How to
Use onyx during meditation by placing her on the root chakra to enhance grounding and inner strength.
