PROTECTION, SHADOW WORK, CIRCULATION.
Black Obsidian is formed from volcanic lava. Carrying Black Obsidian with you is very protective, especially for those who are sensitive to psychic energy.
Black Obsidian is also very good at making you aware of your shadow side. It will show you the parts of yourself that you deny, and therefore have been projecting onto others. Black Obsidian does not sugar coat what is lurking in your shadow, which is great because then you can begin shadow work. A good place to start this process is to find a situation where this shadow quality has been, or could be helpful to you. Black Obsidian is also beneficial for the circulation.
Cleanse with running water, sage or incense smoke or singing bowls.
Recharge in the Earth under healthy plants or on a selenite slab.
