Black Obsidian
Black Obsidian is a powerful and protective stone, formed from rapidly cooled volcanic lava. It's characterized by its glossy, glass-like surface and its deep, rich black color, although it can sometimes contain inclusions that give it a slight iridescence. Known as a stone of protection, Black Obsidian is believed to shield against negativity and psychic attacks, making it a valuable stone for spiritual and emotional healing.
Where It's Found: Black Obsidian is found in areas with historical or recent volcanic activity. Significant sources include Mexico, the United States (particularly in areas such as Oregon, California, Arizona, and Idaho), Iceland, Italy, and Russia. The presence of volcanoes in these regions provides the ideal conditions for the formation of Obsidian.
