Hand-strung mala of 108 round gemstone beads, alternating black onyx and snow quartz, gathered at a sterling silver guru bead engraved with the yin-yang symbol. The pairing of opposites is traditionally linked to balance and harmony. Use it for seated meditation and mantra counting, or wear it long or doubled as a layering necklace.

Meaning & Intention

The yin-yang is one of the oldest symbols of balance, holding that opposing forces are partners rather than enemies. Light needs dark, stillness needs movement, rest needs effort.

Black onyx has long been valued as a stone of grounding and protection, said to absorb heavy energy and lend steady strength in difficult moments.

Snow quartz, a softer relative of clear quartz, is associated with gentle clarity and calm renewal — a luminous counterpoint to onyx's depth.

The sterling silver guru bead marks the 109th point. In mala tradition it is a small pause at the end of each round of mantra or breath, an invitation to return to center before beginning again.

Essence & Elements

Questions & Guidance

Can I wear it as a necklace?

Yes. At about 36 inches plus the knotted tassel, it sits long as a single-strand necklace or can be doubled for a shorter layer. It works equally well held in the hand for seated practice.

How do I use it to count mantras?

Hold a bead between thumb and finger, repeat your mantra or breath, then move to the next. When you reach the guru bead, pause there rather than counting over it, and reverse direction if continuing another round.

Is this a good gift for someone starting a meditation practice?

Yes. The traditional 108-bead count supports mantra and breath work, and the yin-yang theme gives a clear starting intention for anyone new to sitting practice.
