Cunningham files onyx under Mars and Fire, the protection and defensive strength stone, worn since antiquity as the sober guard of the jewelry box. The double terminated cut adds modern practice's own reading: a point at each end is taken as energy moving both ways, receiving and directing in one stone, which makes the shape a favorite for wearers who want their grounding to feel like circulation rather than a wall. Worn at the chest, it does the guard stone's honest daily work: steadiness through contested hours, resolve kept where a hand can find it.

1. Cleanse it on arrival with smoke, sound, or moonlight.
2. Hang it on a chain or cord and wear it through days that need ground held.
3. Hold the stone briefly before hard conversations; the pause is the practice.
4. Take it off for showers and swimming, and store it apart from harder stones.

• Black Onyx Bracelet, 4mm: the same guard at the wrist.
• 24" Braided Black Cord Necklaces: cords suited to a dark pendant.
• White Selenite Wand: a cleansing rest between wearings.
