Onyx is a captivating and versatile gemstone known for its striking bands of color and smooth, polished appearance. It's a variety of Chalcedony, a type of microcrystalline quartz characterized by parallel layers of different colors, such as black and white, brown, red, and green, depending on the minerals present during its formation. The layered structure of Onyx, formed through the deposition of silica in gas cavities in lava, gives it a unique and elegant look, making it a popular choice for jewelry, decorative items, and architectural accents.
 
Metaphysically, Onyx is a stone of strength, protection, and self-discipline. It aids in grounding and promotes vigor, steadfastness, and stamina, making it a powerful ally for those facing challenging situations or ambitions. It absorbs and transforms negative energy, fostering a sense of inner strength and resilience.
 
Onyx is perfect for times of immense physical and mental stress. It aids in memory recall and mental focus, which is helpful when tasked with challenging new information that we need to master. Onyx is also a calming stone, alleviating worries while balancing overwrought emotions. In healing work, it helps pinpoint the trauma (physical or mental), allowing the injury to be released through various modalities of therapy.
 
Onyx's rich history and varied uses continue to make it a popular and much loved stone in many cultures and traditions.
