The blue in this natural blue onyx is stunning. Onyx is in the quartz family, a variety of chalcedony. It is a stone that works with our throat and third eye chakras. This piece reached out psychically and informed us it is a truth telling crystal. Holding it or having it in your energy field can enable the bearer to discern Truth. It self identified as THE stone for this time as we navigate the seas of mis and disinformation being used to deliberately keep us distracted and disempowered.
