Obsidian, black
What shows up when you see yourself - without filter or fear?
Black obsidian is a powerful stone often associated with protection, self-examination, and spiritual insight. It is believed to act as a shield against negative energies, and help dissolve emotional blockages and destructive patterns.
Obsidian is often described as the “mirror of the soul” – a stone that can reflect our deepest shadows while creating space for transformation.
Many people find that it provides clarity in internal conflicts and contributes to mental focus, especially during times of stress and anxiety.
It is said to help us identify and heal fears, even those that may have roots in past lives. Obsidian is therefore often associated with deep healing and heightened self-awareness.
For those seeking strong protection, clarity and spiritual connection/development, black obsidian can be a very powerful ally. And for those who dare to face their shadows with openness and love – and eventually come away stronger.
