Crystal Healing: Onyx Onyx is a form of chalcedony and a part of the quartz group. Onyx can be found in a wide range of colors which are often layered. Onyx is associated with the sign Sagittarius and its energy is projective as well as connected with fire. When carried or worn, onyx is a stone that gives us strength. It is very useful for anyone who is under mental or emotional stress. This stone helps to balance the mind and body as well as strengthen a person which makes it an excellent choice for those who are nervous by nature. Onyx can help you to approach any task with a greater self-confidence. It can help you feel more in tune with your surroundings and cope with fears. It is also a stone of grounding and will help keep you in harmony with nature and the environment. Onyx is a wonderful stone to carry when you feel you need protection or you are exposed to negative energy. If you are doing a healing on yourself or someone else, you can lay a black onyx on the person on the root chakra for grounding. Onyx reduces sexual desires and one should watch how much of this stone is around the bedroom or the home. This stone is helpful for ending bad habits or patterns. It is a beautiful stone that helps you achieve self-mastery, balance between intuition and action, and self-control. It helps you honor your inner wisdom in decisions and helps you absorb positive energies from the environment around you. During this time of year, when the veil is thin, black onyx is a wonderful stone for a form of divination called scrying. The onyx works very well for this when it is shaped in a sphere. You can always cleanse and consecrate your stone using cronewort, otherwise none as mugwort, or Artemisia vulgaris. If you decide to use an onyx sphere for scrying, you could consecrate it during the Samhain season.

I have a ring set with onyx embeded with an approximately 0.3 carat diamond and it has been my favorite stone to use for warding off negative spirits. The onyx seems to help bring into sharper focus, the brilliant white rays of the diamond and project it outward as narrow beams of offensive laser lights. My psychic friend Ken often complained that this ring cut his aura whenever I was wearing it and sitting near him. . Blessings Diamond |

WOWZA! Diamond, it's a beautiful ring~You can almost feel it's power... Which brings me to a question? Do you know of any protection spells or wayz of protecting one's home? Briefly, my partner has had recurring dreams of a dark entity who is trying to force him to acknowledge it by looking into it's eyes. It's getting progressively more forceful and strange things have strarted happening around the house. For instance, yesterday a ginger jar I have on my bookshelf(the bookshelf is very sturdy and the ginger jar is flat on the bottom) FELL to it's side with the lid knocked off(still on said shelf). We heard a noice an d that is what is was. His father passed in October in another state. I'm not sure if everything is connected. I really do not want to acknowledge whatever comes to him in sleep... I've had my own experience many, many years ago growing up. Any thoughts or ideas on this would be most appreciated. Blessings, Damage |

Sorry for being slow in responding; I have been pondering over how I should reply to your post, and how I should advise one of my other friends asking me to help his daughter who had been psychically harrassed by a woman practising black magic. First, I suppose that in countering evil spells or black magic, the greatest harm to ourselves is the Fear generated within ourselves. Once a Rinpoche (Shampa Rinpoche) told me that for Black Magic to work, the victim must be psychologically made/"lured" to feel and fear the effect of the Black Magic, so much so that the slightest discomfort in his body would be inproportionally manifested and be blamed on the supposedly psychic attack. Therefore, the Fear factor alone can wreck havoc on the victim of Black Magic, even causing him to act irrationally and driving him to seek self-destruction. He advocated that the victim prayed to Buddha earnestly, so that he could receive the Holy Lights blessing and protecting him. Vice versa, when we wish to counter the negative effect of psychic attack or Black Magic, we should have Faith in ourselves and in Whoever we call upon to protect us. So, chanting a simple prayer, calling upon whoever our God, the Angels or Devas or Deities that are close to our heart and earnestly asking for their protection, before we fall asleep, is one simple counter measure. You can call this a "countering spell"... Some objects such as natural stones may also help. Once an Italian cook came to me asking me for advice on how to counter the "Evil Eye" spell, and I gave him a hematite pendant to wear as protection. A year later, he met me again and told me that the pendant worked, and since then he had not been harrassed by the Black Magic. Hematite serves as a magic mirror not only deflecting the psychic assault but reflecting it back to the originator. Wearing a piece or keeping one below the pillorw would be helpful for a good night rest. We can also similarly use some high vibrational stones such as white quartz, amethyst, tektite and even moldavite. I also recommend hanging some faceted cut natural stones - best to use either white quartz or smoky quartz balls at the entry points to the room - the doors and windows. Using a good piece of laser wand - white quartz, or selenite or kyanite - to seal off all the entry points - doors and windows- would also work in some cases. To do that, we hold the laser wands in our right hand and trace the outlines or the edge of the windows and doors from right to left, saying whatever prayers appropriate and forming an intention that the pure white lights from the stones etched along the edges of the windows and doors would serve to ward off all uninvited negative energies. Sometimes, when I feel the presence of evil in my room, I invoke the Etheric Pyramid, and spin it counter clockwise to clean the confined space. Bringing down the White Lights, or Golden Lights, and flooding the room also works. Blessings Diamond |

Thanks, Damage. I have this to add to my post: "I remember reading about one writer of a book on psychic defense describing how we should best defend ourselves against black magic. Her unconventional view is to compose pink compassionate light from our heart and channel it across space and time to the source of the black magic. She suggested that instead of begrudging or showing hatred to the originator of the negative auric attack, we are supposed not only to forgive him but shower him with unconditional love.....How many of us can do this?" |

Now that's a lovely concept! You're right though, how many are willing to do so?  |
