Obsidian is natural volcanic glass.

Black Obsidian has a very powerful energy which has a natural affinity with the Navel, Base and Earth Star Chakras. It connects us to Mother Earth and to the Fire at her core. It is deep, passionate, sensual and intense.

Obsidian takes us deep inside, to hidden places, and reveals that which needs to be released and that which needs to be owned and integrated.

The deep, dark, velvet blackness can be a fearful place, if the Shadow has not been addressed; alternatively it can be a place of peace, rest and recuperation.
