Obsidian is raw power in crystalline darkness, a volcanic glass born of fire and solidification, of heat and stillness. Deep black, lustrous, and often traversed by reflective clarity, it acts like a gateway into the shadowy realms of the self. Its energy is direct, unadulterated, and uncompromising; it reveals what is and simultaneously envelops it in protection. Not a stone for easy pastimes, but an ally for those willing to truly look.
Obsidian is the mirror of the soul. It brings hidden issues to the surface, cuts through energetic entanglements, and helps one discover oneself in all its depths. It is a stone of truth, roots, and boundaries. Whether as a companion in rituals, as a protective stone on the body, or as a silent guardian on the altar, its presence is palpable and affects far beyond the visible.
Its energy is protective, penetrating, and at the same time stabilizing. It grounds us where we feel lost and clarifies where confusion creeps into our field. Those who work with obsidian embark on the path of clear vision, not always easy, but deeply transformative.

Each stone is unique and may therefore differ from the image.
