In depth functions of these stones?

Hi, so I recently got my first stones. I got them in bracelets, since I kinda wanted some lol.

They are 100% natural and the stones they contain are: yellow tiger eye, lava stone, black matte onyx, and howlite. I researched each of these, and it seems like they all relate to grounding/balancing root chakra.

Are there any more in-depth functions of these stones? Not that grounding is bad, I recognize it's very important. However, I'm already pretty grounded, and maintain that through meditation, foods I eat, heck even an entire wall (10x14ft) in my room is red, and already giving off (i think) 392Hz.

Honestly, I just don't want to over activate my root chakra. So if there are any other uses for these stones, let me know!

The only one that works on grounding really is lava stone, but it does other stuff too.
The other ones are gentle, calming, and tiger eye works mostly on the Solar Plexus.
I wouldn't worry about it, I would think about the red wall though.
If that is in your bedroom it exudes the wrong energy to calm down, and get restorative rest & brainwaves. Red is activating and fiery, and just about the worst colour to have on a wall in a bedroom.

Oh really? I thought it would've been good for my root, honestly. I would be open to changing it, though it is very expensive to, haha.

Red can certainly be used for things, like any colour. It's also the colour of passion as it's very fiery, the colour of danger, anger etc.
All colours have effects that could be too much and not all colours are suited for everything.
Like at the butcher's they use the separation things with fake lush green lettuce and not black or purple for instance. Not culinary attractive, won't make people want to buy meat.

Look into colour therapy a bit. Doesn't require you to become an expert, just fun to know a bit about it. Colours are VERY powerful!
And red in the bedroom is just not handy.
If you want it there, it's up to you of course :)

Thank you so much for this information! I really appreciate it. Honestly, it would explain why I find myself being more angry over certain situations than I should be. So if I painted my room violet, would that make me more prone to astral project when I was in there? lol. I'm mostly meaning that as a joke, but considering violet helps balance the crown chakra, it would be an interesting hypothesis.

Why do you want all that activity in the room where you're supposed to unwind, sleep, and restore?
Work on those chakras during the day. You don't want to be wide open during sleep! Won't do you any good to be like a lighthouse in the dark while not conscious, possibly attracting all kinds of unwanted stuff. And that doesn't have to be evil, but having bad or chaotic dreams often won't be particularly nice.
Just download images of specific colours and open one when you want to work on a specific chakra with it. Can bring a lot of healing, balance etc. and that way you can have your relaxed restorative sleep :)

In the bedroom better to go for colours that are non-arousing, fiery etc. but soothing so you sleep well. meaning bright yellow or bright orange etc. is also not handy, not these psychedelic/coloured patterns that you sometimes see either. Go for somewhat softer colours.
Provided you want to make a change at some point :)

Much appreciated! I noticed that when my alarm goes off, instead of slowly getting out of bed, I sort of kick my blanket off me with my right leg and land on the floor with my left, using my arms to push myself out of bed...probably the red making me already alert hahaha.

Thank you for your wisdom :)

I love Howlite: she is such a chameleon.

Lava Stone should be more popular. I see her a lot showing up in Buddhist bracelets.

As for Yellow Tiger Eye....... I do not know if I have ever seen her. I love Gold Tiger Eye but also have an affinity for Blue Tiger Eye (Hawk's Eye). I had a piece in which one side naturally depicted a 'hawk's eye'!

Black Matte Onyx: a beauty all in her own.
