All about black obsidian

Obsidian is formed from lava that cools rapidly and does not have time to crystallise.

Due to this, you can trust that obsidian works fast and with great power.

This crystal is known to be grounding and protective.

It also brings with it truth and wisdom – nothing can be hidden when black obsidian is around.

Care for your black obsidian snake

Crystals need to be kept clean and energised to enable them to work.

Make sure you dust your snake on a regular basis.

If the snake is placed in such a way that it can’t see the moon, put it on a windowsill at full moon.

This will re-energise the crystal properties of the crystal.
