Mala with Beaded Tassel - Black Onyx

Malas are traditional meditation tools that are also worn as a spiritual adornment. Each mala is hand-knotted and includes 108 mantra beads to set and focus your intentions. It is understood in the Tibetan culture that the number 9 is a form of completion and protection. By adding 108 together to get a single digit, 9. When contemplating the individual numbers, they represent a singular thing, nothing, and everything (or infinity.) Our curated hand-knotted malas are made from quality 8mm gemstone beads, including a large guru bead with imprinted chants. Each mala is approximately 21 inches long.

Of course, our malas come in a range of options. When in doubt in selecting a handcrafted mala, bracelet, or another piece of jewelry, inquire within, “Which stone feels right? Which stone makes me happy? Which stone draws my heart in?” Listening to our internal compass and guidance is one of the first steps to awakening our awareness. Give it a try!

Black Onyx

GROUNDING • PROTECTION • FOCUS

Black Onyx is a black stone that aligns with several lower chakras, including the root and solar plexus (1st and 3rd chakras).  For this reason, and the fact that the controlling element for this stone is the Earth's grounding energy, it is well-known for its centering and focusing capabilities.  If focus and discipline are desired, this is the stone to wear. It is a stone that helps soften the tendency to be emotionally reactive regarding fears, tempers, and passion. It is a stone of willpower, protection, and support.
