hi everyone caroline here in this video i want to share something about onyx black onyx because
quite a few people have asked me to touch on this subject of black onyx and i've also been meaning
to talk about it for a while now so black onyx lovers get excited because i'm going to share some
cool things about this crystal and i'm also going to share some crystal combinations for onyx plus
i want to hear your perspective about black onyx in the comments section deal deal okay good anyway
at this moment i don't have an onyx crystal to share with you for reasons that i have discussed
in previous videos but the thing is this onyx is a slow acting crystal which has to be worn over
a period of time a long period of time before one can feel its effects it's that slow and if you're
working with onyx by itself and by that i mean if you're working with onyx not in combination
with other crystals and you are expecting fast results you might wait for a long long time
and just to be clear about this even though onyx is slow it does not mean that that slowness is
a lack of effectiveness it's slow it runs deep it takes its time and it is effective so don't get me
wrong on that point for sure onyx is a wonderful crystal and i'm just curious to know if there are
any onyx crystal lovers who have worked with onyx by itself and who have experienced speedy results
let me know in the comment section because i know that crystals work differently with different
individuals and sometimes you're on one stage of your life when things need to be speeded up and by
benevolent graces things might speed up on your behalf when you're working with a crystal which
is generally considered to be slow or sometimes things can slow down based on what your life
experience is at a particular moment because that type of speed is what is required at that
specific moment in your life so you never know anyway for those who are interested i already
made some videos about fast acting crystals and slow acting crystals and you can watch those
in case you have time and i'll put a link to them at the end of this video okay anyway as
you probably know onyx is a black crystal it's a black stone and even though crystals with similar
colors have a specific energy quality there is usually some differences in these crystals and
i personally find that even though onyx is a black crystal it's not as protective as the
other black stones like black tourmaline and black obsidian and for me this is because onyx is a slow
acting crystal and when i want fast speedy results when i want quote quote protection in the moment
onyx is just so slow so crystals like black tourmaline and black obsidian really meet my need
in that specific moment if i sat there waiting for onyx to come through for me when i needed
a situation resolved it would take me a long long time so that for me is a distinction between black
tourmaline black obsidian and black onyx that slow factor that speed factor and it matters to me and
maybe you can also tell me whether you've noticed this distinction in terms of protection or not
you know the other thing is onyx is a stone that is considered to be a transformative stone
and a transformative stone is a stone that is normally used for conscious cultivation of life
it is a stone that has gone through a slow process of evolution it has taken its sweet
time to evolve into what it is right now and you can usually tell what a transformative stone is
because of the lines or the bands that they have for example stones like agates are transformative
stones because they have those lines and bands and each line and each band reveals a stage
or a layer of transformation that the stone has gone into to become what it is right now
and the other type of crystals that are also considered to be transformative stones are stones
with clear colors like jaspers and jades and many of these crystals with solid colors anyway to
get back to onyx because onyx has gone through a long and deep and slow process of transformation
it usually resonates strongly with our constitutional structures our bones our marrows
what makes us what we are in the physical sense and because of that same thing it can be used
for issues that have been with us for a long long time those slow things that have been going on in
our lives that we've been trying to get rid of for example it can truly support that process because
it knows how to support those processes that are deep within us those things that we've held
so deeply that sometimes we want to express but we don't know how to express it onyx supports that
process or when you're dealing with situations that are really slow or that have really been slow
in really coming to the surface or coming into the light onyx can support us in looking at those
things layer by layer or critically because it understands what slow processes can do to bring
effective results so in situations where you've had long held habits that you want to break or
things that have just been so difficult to break and the processes have been so slow
working with a crystal like onyx can definitely help you have additional insight into what is
going on with those specific situations so you see onyx is a good crystal right it is
anyway so what do you do if you're an onyx lover and you want fast acting results
onyx for sure is slow acting so it may need to be speeded up and you can do that by combining
onyx with other crystals that are faster and it's just like how human beings are sometimes
you meet someone and the person speeds up your energy just by the interaction you have with
that person and then of course sometimes you can meet some types of people who really slow you
down or interrupt your process or really take you off track you know what i mean so the choice
really really matters and sometimes i tend to think about crystal combinations in that way
the thing is you just have to know what goes with what or what supports what or what doesn't support
what and you're fine so to get to crystal combinations for onyx crystal combinations
always depend on a lot of things what you want to achieve and what's going on with
you but generally because onyx is a slow acting crystal a fantastic combination for onyx would be
calcite onyx and calcite because calcite is a soft crystal and soft crystals soften the hardness in a
situation and helps the situation or the process move along faster so calcite would be a great
combination crystal for onyx and the other thing is that calcite supports the bones and onyx is
also a crystal that supports the bones those deep things so both these crystals calcite and onyx are
bone supporting crystals so they work well together in cases where you need to deal with
constitutional matters or those in-depth long-term structures or ancient deep-rooted things that have
been going on in your life experience the other good combination is a combination of onyx and
rose quartz this combination is great for people who want to express and clear deeply held emotions
remember onyx goes deep into the bones it deals with that deep stuff so it's not a surface type
of crystal it goes deep into that hidden stuff and that darkness of onyx may take its sweet time
but it will surely get you to the place you need to go in terms of looking at what it is that you
need to resolve to get you out of that dark space and when you combine onyx with loving rose quartz
energy the process can be very healing no matter how the expression of the emotion is
in the end so rose quartz and onyx is a wonderful healing combination and the other thing is onyx
can be combined with any type of quartz crystal you can combine onyx with amethyst you can combine
onyx and citrine you can combine onyx and titanium quartz you can combine onyx and smoky quartz
the combination really all depends on what it is that you want to achieve and what it is that is
going on with you and on top of that combination of quartz and onyx you can also include a third
crystal and that third crystal in that combination can be one that targets a specific issue that
you're currently working with but that's a whole nother topic so i'm not going to touch on that
but that is just one of the other ways in which you can use combinations for your highest good
okay so if you are an onyx lover let me know in the comment section what your experience
with onyx is and also let me know what your favorite onyx crystal combination
is and let me know if you find onyx to be fast or slow alright until next time i love you guys bye
