Obsidian brings to light the dark and hidden aspects of yourself. Raising self-awareness, it teaches you to honor the imperfections of being human and to embrace your flaws and weaknesses as opportunities for growth and development.

Through honest self-reflection, Obsidian empowers the inner strength to explore the nature of destructive behavioral patterns. By accepting these feelings without judgment, it inspires a personal transformation towards your authentic self. Restoring a harmonious balance to the emotional body, it nurtures a sense of wholeness and power to take on life’s challenges.

Grounding you to the Earth’s center, Obsidian’s powerful cleansing ability absorbs harmful energy from the environment and within your auric field. It forms a protective shield to guard against negative influences and psychic attacks. It is commonly used by shamans as a tool for scrying and receiving messages from the spirit world.

Caring for Obsidian:

Unpolished, Obsidian can have razor-sharp edges. It is brittle and may crack with impact. We suggest cleansing and charging Obsidian with smoke, sunlight, rice, nature, salt, and other crystals.
