Black Onyx for Spiritual Protection, Healing Grief

Black Onyx Crystal Meaning

Used for centuries as an amulet of protection, black onyx is an excellent stone for those who are intuitive, growing their psychic gifts or are engaged in past life healing.

This is a deeply healing crystal for anyone processing grief and loss. Black onyx supports and balances the root chakra, allowing you to ground in your physical body when you are otherwise overwhelmed.

This is a strong and steady healing stone for when grief becomes “stuck” or it feels you can’t move past a loss. In times of turmoil, death and difficult endings, this crystal brings the healing perspective of the cycles of life, death and rebirth in a way that honors the grieving process.

Black onyx is an excellent gift and healing ally to those sorrow stricken at the death of a loved one or pet, particularly if feelings of loneliness are present.

Danielle often recommends this stone to those sensitive to ghostly energies, who frequent potentially haunted buildings and those who work around the dying or deceased. This is because black onyx teaches us about death and the spirit world while helping to prevent negative spiritual energy from attaching to us.

This dark beauty also gives a bit of a confidence boost by reminding us of our resilience and what we have already overcome.

This stone is deeply associated with the Death card of the Tarot, which represents natural endings.

For healing loss, complimentary stones include Green Calcite. For spiritual & energetic protection, consider Black Tourmaline.
