Onyx

I am delighted to welcome everyone to this Sacred Website - City Of Shamballa, where we help each other with our spiritual growth, upliftment, & healing by giving each other loving support and by sharing meditations, spiritual practices, Reiki, and healings.

And you are also welcome to share any blockages or problems in your spiritual journey, for we may be able to help you and extend Divine Love & Light, Healing, and Wisdom on what you are experiencing.

We are all divinely connected to one another, for God's Presence resides within every human being.

And all awakened souls are helping manifest our 5th dimensional world by continuing to unfold and embody our own Divine Presence through our spiritual practices and the Divine Healings we all need.

So sharing our visions of the new 5th dimensional world we are all creating...and sharing our experiences and spiritual practices that are helping us in our own spiritual journey and healing are important in our website.

My vision is to create a world where everyone is living in peace and joy and abundance with all of humanity having realized and embodied their Divine Self.

So everyone - feel free to share your Divine Love, Light, Healing Energies, & Wisdom here with posts that help uplift us all, or in any way your Divine Heart guides you to share with us.

I extend to All of You Mother/Father/God's Supreme Blessings Divinely Perfect for each of you for your life, for your healing, and for your spiritual growth.

Scorpio, October 23 - November 21

This Month’s Featured Stone is onyx.

Description: Onyx is a form of banded agate with a long history. Its excellent, smooth texture and interesting patterns make it perfect for carving both jewelry and everyday objects, including cameos. The ancients sought it out for this reason, using it to fashion tough and handsome pottery and bowls. The Bible even gives onyx the honor of forming the foundation of the City of Heaven! For some reason, medieval authorities took an intense dislike to this stone; they claimed it made love chill, brought on attacks of “frivolities,” and caused babies to drool. But they admitted a big plus side as well: a strong virtue as a protective and healing stone. Nowadays we’ve come to value the positive side of this beautiful semi-precious gem.

Metaphysical uses: Onyx is a stone for strength. Hardiness, constancy, grounding, stamina, self control--all of these qualities come together in the layered beauty of onyx. This would seem to play to the strengths of vigorous Scorpio. But this intense sign, often self-repressive, has also been described as “an ice-cap atop a smouldering volcano.” The layering of onyx reminds us to take each thing in turn, rather than obsessing about what should be or might have been. Grounding is important, faced with Scorpion passions.
