Obsidian, Snowflake

A stone of purity, Snowflake Obsidian brings about a balance to body, mind and spirit. Snowflake Obsidian helps to keep centered and focused when any type of chaotic situation (office, commute, home, etc.) presents itself. Snowflake Obsidian can remove negativity from a space or person with ease.

For the experienced user, Obsidian is an incredible ally in meditation, taking one deep into the subconscious and providing for a clear state of detachment. It inspires an understanding of the profound silence and wisdom that can be attained through meditation and reflection. Gazing into various forms of Obsidian helps regroup scattered energies, and brings inner visions of the way through problems if one relaxes and lets solutions come. Snowflake Obsidian is superb for stimulating total surrender during the meditative state. Obsidian is also a marvelous support for expanding one’s consciousness to explore other realms with confidence and ease, and is highly effective for increasing clairvoyance and other sensory gifts when one is ready to accept them. 

Note of caution: Black Obsidian balls are extremely powerful meditation pieces and can be highly beneficial for soul searching and quickly getting to core issues. However, its power cannot be overstated and one should be aware before embarking on a Black Obsidian ball meditation that its purpose is to confront the inner recesses of the soul, to expose one’s darkest truths. It can plunge one into their most ancient anxieties and obsessive fears, and draw one into a state of self-disgust, despair, and melancholy. It can also elevate one to great spiritual heights and realizations. (If its shock is too painful, remove the ball immediately and use Selenite and Rose Quartz to regain equilibrium.) Clear Quartz, ideally a six-inch Generator Quartz, should be employed during, and in successive meditative sessions, to balance and polarize these strong effects and to dissolve and neutralize any psychic or emotional debris that has surfaced. It is best not to use more than once every four months, and when not in use, Black Obsidian balls should be covered. 

Physically, Snowflake Obsidian is associated with the skeletal and vascular systems, and is said to support smooth skin.

In general, Obsidian is a very grounding and protective stone. It is used as a great cleanser of negative energies, helping to remove not only negativity experienced in the environment, but also that of one's own emotions, such as anger, jealousy, greed, resentment, etc. Obsidian is often used for healing and releasing energy blockages, and has a tendency to work quickly to move truths to the surface to be resolved.
