Obsidian’s energy is thought to create a protective shield that deflects negativity and repels attempts of others to assert power over us. It is believed to help us uncover our unique skills and hidden talents. Meanwhile, it assists in releasing blockages to our spiritual and personal growth.

It helps us align with Divine Will and become co-creators with the Universe to manifest what is best for the highest good of all beings.
History and Uses
Also called Golden Obsidian, this stone derives its name from an ancient Roman explorer. Obsius was given a mystical black glass sphere from a volcano by an Ethiopian woman called Xenia. It is also called the “wizard stone” because it has been used since ancient times in many magical practices. Polished Obsidian mirrors were used for scrying. Similarly, Nostradamus, French Astrologer and Physician, is reputed to have used a Black Obsidian sphere for scrying. It is an opaque volcanic glass that can be black, brown grey or green. The translucent variety from Arizona is referred to as Apache Tears. Obsidian has been used since Paleolithic times for making tools and weapons as it holds a sharp edge.
Geological Description
Obsidian is a glassy, silica rich rock formed from fast cooling lava with a hardness of 5 to 5.5. The chatoyancy in this stone is created by bubbles trapped in the lava as it cools. It is an amorphous stone meaning its structure contains no regular geometric pattern. Obsidian is found in South America, Japan, Mexico, Afghanistan, and parts of the United States.
Affirmation
I heal all past abuses of power and attune myself to the manifestation of Divine will.
