Black obsidian is a deep volcanic stone that when tumbled or sculpted, has a shiny surface. It is very hard and smooth and can have sharp edges in its raw form. It is used in jewellery and home decor for both its intense beauty and its powerful properties.
As a grounding stone, Black Obsidian governs your root chakra, Muladhara. If you get a lot of Nazar, are always in an environment that is very negative, and is around people who are always bringing you down, Black Obsidian is a great way to ward off all and any negative vibrations. They are also used in jewelry and home decor for both their intense beauty and their powerful properties.
The intense grounding energy is good for bringing you back down to earth and to your center so that you can regroup and reassess what needs to be done. Its strong magnetic power means that it also holds lots of health benefits. It is said to draw out infection and help with digestive issues.
Once you receive your Black Obsidian, it is important you do a cleansing and activating ritual to make this crystal YOURS! For that, we recommend either keeping it immersed in salt water for 5-10 minutes or smudging it with camphor and clove or sage. We hope this Black Obsidian helps you curse back pain, knee pain, digestive or sexual issues, stay positive, and ward off evil.
