Men’s Black Tourmaline macrame bracelet

Black Tourmaline – Meaning

Tourmaline forms deep in the earth, under intense heat and pressure, and reaches the surface through volcanic activity. An ancient Egyptian legend describes the long journey tourmaline made from the earth’s core to its surface, passing through the rainbow along the way — which is said to be why it can be found in so many colours and shades. It’s a charming story, and not so far from the truth, since tourmaline really does occur in a wide range of colours.

Black onyx, black tourmaline, and black obsidian are all considered traditional protective stones because of their dark colour. They’re said to surround you with a protective energy that absorbs negativity from your surroundings, helping you overcome the negative thought patterns that come from one of our most draining emotions: fear.

Shamans and druids around the world — especially among native tribes in Africa and the Americas — have long used black tourmaline as a cornerstone of protective rituals, valued for shielding both mind and body from negativity.
