Onyx – The Energy Transformer

The dark beauty and magnetic energy of the black stone Onyx have captivated occult communities since ancient times. It was used in magical rituals, ceremonies, and even funerals.

References to it can be found in many manuscripts, including the Bible. It is said to have been used to carve figures of gods, amulets, shields, and armor.

While some cultures elevated its mysterious beauty to cult status, others feared it because they believed it brought bad luck and caused sadness, anger, and unusual states. People engaged in occult activities believed it could separate lovers, sow conflict in the family, and evoke visions.

These claims were so widespread in China that only workers who were doomed to starvation and had no other way to earn a living descended into the mines where the precious stones were extracted.

Varieties and Their Meaning

Depending on the color, onyx can be several different types, each with its own purpose.

Black Onyx

This type is one of the most common precious stones in the onyx family. It is characterized by a black color with white, parallel bands. It originates from the Latin name for "nail" and is designated by the Arabic term "el jaza", which translates to "sadness."

Sardonyx

This type is distinguished by its red hues alternating with the typical black color of Onyx. In ancient times, it was called Sardinian.

Sard

It represents a semi-transparent chalcedony with orange shades. According to the ancient Greeks, it was used as a protective shield against witchcraft spells.

There are also several other types – green onyx, Mexican onyx, marble onyx, Brazilian onyx, and cave onyx.

Mystical and Healing Properties

Information and records collected over the centuries about the properties of onyx have assessed its positive and negative qualities and have taught people how to take advantage of it.

Its ability to connect with the body and a person’s roots defines it as an earthly stone, resistant to receiving negative energy and transforming it into mental strength and physical resilience. It is said to build perseverance in a person and make them the master of their own destiny.

Onyx is known for its ability to store the memories of its owner. This has its negative side as well. If worn for too long, the mystical stone can make you relive the pain of old psychological traumas or cause depression. Therefore, it is necessary to have good knowledge of its powers before using it for treatment.

If you need help making decisions and require a tool to strengthen your inner intuition, onyx is an excellent choice as a healing stone.

Zodiac Signs and Onyx

Onyx is a stone with various properties, making it suitable for several zodiac signs. It is believed to be associated with the zodiac sign Leo, but representatives of Scorpio feel magnetically attracted to its mystical properties. Those born under the sign of Virgo can wear green onyx.
