This creation is like diving into a pool of water in a forest at midnight to be shown the truth of the way things are. So too diving within to feel in the darkness.
Black 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. It is an energy that reveals truths.
These may not be the most comfortable truths you’ve ever faced. In fact, some of them may be downright harsh.
The thing that makes black obsidian meaning so powerful for those who have experienced it is that it forces you to acknowledge behaviors or past actions that you’ve tried to ignore.
Even those regrettable decisions that you’ve successfully managed to justify in your mind will have to contend with black obsidian’s no-nonsense healing energy.
That’s not to say that it’s all confrontation with black obsidian stone.
It’s also a crystal for release.
Malachite has the ability to serve different purposes for different people. For those highly evolved and dedicated to humanitarian purposes, it assists in grounding higher energies onto the planet for those purposes. For those in a purification process, malachite acts as a purger and a mirror to the subconscious, reflecting into the conscious mind that which needs to be cleansed.
Malachite can be a powerful ally for those waiting for their reality to change. It reminds us we have come here to co-create with the Universe and helps in identifying the steps necessary to bring dreams, visions, and wishes into physical reality. By doing so, we tap into infinite peace with both dark and light.
A creation not for the faint-hearted, however, a powerful ally for the devoted.
'I own my shadows and celebrate.'
