What is a rosary?
A simple rosary consists of a string of beads which includes a crucifix. Rosary beads are made from many materials, such as pearl, hematite, crystal, glass, rose petals, and wood. Rosaries can be any color, shape, or size.
How to Say the Rosary: Make a petition, prayer request, or focus on a person or situation you want to pray about/for. Using the beads as markers, pray as follows.
- Make the Sign of the Cross and say the “Apostles’ Creed”
- Say the “Our Father”
- Say three “Hail Marys.”
- Say the “Glory Be"
- Say ten “Hail Marys” for each decade
- Say the “Glory Be” in between each decade
- Say the “Our Father” in between each decade
- Repeat 5 - 7 times until you've been through all the decades
- Make the “Sign of the Cross”

Black onyx is beneficial for establishing a protective shield when offering spiritual counseling, tarot card readings, channeling, automatic writing, and any other modality that opens you up to psychic influences.
Place a black onyx next to your bed if you have nightmares or night terrors. Set the intention that the stone will guard against negative influences while you sleep peacefully. Black onyx, specifically, helps release any type of fear.
