Your Crystal is Obsidian!

Your crystal is obsidian!

This crystal comes in many different hues and different intensities. If you’re new to crystal healing, perhaps try pretty snowflake obsidian. If you’re experienced and really want to bring out your best by dealing with your hangups head-on, sheen or rainbow obsidian, or even the somewhat intimidating black obsidian, is the stone for you.

All obsidian is molten earth, lava that cooled into a solid stone during some kind of eruption. Even the humble apache tear is born during such an upheaval. Rainbow obsidian is protective and gentler than black obsidian, and will help you to release pent-up energy and blockages so that you can give birth to the very best version of yourself. Obsidian helps you to get the advantage when dealing with others by improving your perception of the situation and allowing you to articulate your thoughts clearly and concisely.

There are other types of obsidian, too, such as mahogany or peacock, but of all of the different permutations of this stone, it’s black obsidian that has the strongest influence. It’s a teacher stone and will bring out the truth in all situations. It doesn’t care about your ego or your feelings. It simply wants you to be who you authentically are and manifest what you came to this lifetime to achieve. It shows you where you’re sabotaging yourself and setting yourself up for failure. That’s not always easy to deal with, but you have to confront your shadow side if you’re going to manifest your bliss and reach the pinnacles of your success.
