Black Onyx Stone Meaning and Metaphysical Properties
Black Onyx has been used throughout history as a stone of power, carved into cameos, intaglios, and seals. This may be because Black Onyx is known as a gem for protection, mental fortitude, and determination, or because it is considered a beneficial stone for those with high ambitions. Associated with the Root Chakra and Third Eye Chakra, Black Onyx is used as a shielding stone against negative influence, encouraging focus, temperance, and willpower to help us see our goals through. By helping us engage life's challenges with a calm mind and filtering away negative energies that plague us, Black Onyx proves itself to be an exceptional support stone.
Natural Black Onyx is a variety of impure Chalcedony ranging in color from deep grey to brown-black, and sometimes banded with other colors. Black Onyx is opaque to semi-translucent depending on quality level and the source of the stone.
Raven Symbolism
Ravens are associated with wisdom, power, and transformation, for good or ill. While some cultures view the Raven as a spirit of creation and guidance, others see the Raven as a portent of misfortune and even death. The Raven's clever nature is immortalized in myths and legends that cast the corvid as a trickster with access to secret knowledge far beyond the ken of human beings. In life, Ravens are known to be capable of inventive problem solving, loyalty, and even holding grudges. This extraordinary capacity for memory and problem solving is likely why Huginn and Muninn, the messengers of Odin, were depicted as Ravens.
