The Healing Properties of Black Obsidian

Black Obsidian for Protection

Black Obsidian is a stone of psychic protection and creates a shield around the aura. By keeping you powerfully grounded to Mother Earth, Black Obsidian creates a safe space for us to work through emotional issues or strengthen our psyche. With a direct connection to earth, We can rid ourselves of destructive or excess energies by focusing that energy down into the earth where it can be absorbed and neutralized. 

Black Obsidian, Conduit to the Spirit Realm


Historically, Black Obsidian has been used as a conduit to the spirit realm and used in scrying. It is commonly used when seeing guidance from spirit guides or from the angelic realm. When present during mediation, it can help us open the mind to higher realms while remaining grounded and protected. We are safe to move through our own memories and experience to gain insight into behaviors. 

Black Obsidian can help us awaken the Third Eye and reach deep into our past (or some say past lives) to gain insight to our current state and foresight into our future. 

Black Obsidian for Cleansing



Black Obsidian is also one of the most powerful stones for purging negative emotions and spiritual cleansing. Drawing from the fire energy of its volcanic creation, Obsidian can illuminate problems and help us ‘burn off’ emotional burdens or energetic baggage that weighs us down.
