Metaphysical Properties, Uses, and Meaning of Black Onyx
Onyx is a stone heralded in ancient civilizations for its presence of power and ability to influence and sway the energy of those around it. It has been used in ceremonies and castings related to absorbing and filtering negative energy, while also keeping the mind focused and sharp to achieve the experience & results desired. It is a very active stone that can provide support as needed or can bring with it a great calm that settles nerves & an overactive mind. Onyx is a royal stone, used throughout time by royalty & nobility as a sign of prestige and power. It was used to create works of art through carvings, as embodiment and offerings of the gods, and was revered for sculpting to capture the likeness of heroes and gods. It has been used in application of jewelry, armory, ritual tools, seals, and amulets of power by the ancient Romans and Greeks. It is an intriguing stone that can lead you into seizing and achieving your destiny.
Although Onyx can be found in other shades (especially green), it is most commonly known as a black stone (to the point that “Onyx” is a synonym for the color black), sometimes exhibiting clear dots or stripes.
