I walk around paranoid and susceptible to many feelings all at once as an empathy I placed my osedian necklace on and I immediate felt bold, strong, fearless, serious even. I feel so incredibly strong I can not stress it enough. As if I had been having my energy drained by the others and finally feeling what it is like to feel whole. It is the best feeling. I feel safe. And grounded. I instantly began to declutter my home

I slept with a black obsidian in my hand last night and it woke me up in the middle of the night. It was pulsating and shaking like crazy in my hand. Never felt that with any of my other crystals!

My black obsidian connected me to a part of myself that I never thought I would be good enough for! I meditated and started feeling free and empowered, like a powerful witch that could transform into a wild and free black cat. In my vision, I was the cat! So free! So empowered! Running through the woods, and I knew the woods. They were MY woods! I owned it, and the feeling was so amazing! I’ve been feeling that power ever since! I’m not afraid of seeing things when I’m alone anymore, and I don’t feel anxious around people! I’m enjoying this so much! And looking forward to explore more now that I’m not scared anymore!

Black obsidian is my favorite with selenite and lapis. Creates the perfect mirror for self correction. Be ready to work though.

Black obsidian is great for metaphysical protection and protection from negativity. I put one in my classroom and my boss avoided my classroom for quite some time. It can also increase dormant psychic abilities.

Looking back at old pictures, I noticed that I wore mostly black obsidian and hematite jewelry when I served in the military. I didn’t know anything about crystals back then but I always found rings and bracelets in stores and I thought it looked cool. It’s so interesting to learn about it, all these years later. I’ve had a sensitivity to crystal energy before I was even aware of it!

I bought black obsidian recently and I wasn't sure why. I did have the intention to heal and shield myself from an abusive person now I know why I picked it :) nice video thanks

I bought black obsidian at a local health store. I was looking for a protection stone. There was also black tourmaline but something visual about the obsidian drew me in. I am so happy I bought it. If I ever become upset in any way this stone sucks all the negative energy right out of me. I'm just a beginner with crystals but oh my goodness this stone has done wonders for me when I get upset.

I work with the obsidian quite often and found it to be a stone of truth! meaning it shows alot of truth. In the beginning stages of my awakening, the obsidian helped me to release, exactly like you said, attachments, unnecessary attachments. I did meditate for 3 months but at kmy last meditation I heard a very loud voice " Nancy Flowers are you home?" I scrambled for the door, thought someone entered! Then I came to realize meditation is no longer needed. I heard the same voice once before! I was so upset! people did not believe me and I asked why dont they believe with my hands upward! ! Went to bed, got awakened at around 5am with that voice which said " Book of Peter "!!! I had no clue what book of peter was! googled it and found it came from the bible, I had no bible so I had to purchase one and I did, then read book of peter straight awayThen I came to realize why people dont believe!!

It's so effective. Powerful and enlightening brought back my power. It healed my deepest pain after coming back from war. This stone inspires me and shift my perspective and motivated me to get back again. It helped me let go what doesn't serve especially during this of change. It took me 5 days to get used to the powerful vibration. Now I have made tgat relationship where it helps me through so much difficult situation to ease am surroundings in a positive manner

I use Jet to stop or decrease the frequency of seizures. I've used it with humans and animals. A friend has a small dachshund rescue dog who was having frequent seizures and was growing more and more frightened of them. I loaned her a jet and quartz bracelet I had purchased to use as a necklace around the dog's neck. The frequency and severity of her seizures have decreased dramatically and she is less nervous about the small ones she does have. I realize now after listening to your video that I need to remind her to cleanse the bracelet frequently to possibly reduce even the few small seizures her precious dog continues to experience. Thank you for your wonderful videos. I am 2 years new to doTerra oils and do really appreciate the metaphysical knowledge you share about the oils and how to use them more effectively. Blessed be & Namaste.

I think black obsidian work to protect you by exposing your weaknesses to the light of day. Man, yesterday was rough...

i went to a crystalshop to grab some things i've always wanted to get me started on my journey (rose quartz, green fluorite, selenite) and randomly came across black obdisian. it wasn't on my list and was not a thought in my mind but i was so drawn to it and i got a piece for $4. i didn't even realize that it would now be my favourite stone that i take with me everywhere. it feels so powerful

I found my black obsidian and it's helped me to talk better in front of people thank you black obsidian

BLACK TOURMALINE, SELENITE & HEMATITE Some consider this to be the Holy Grail of protection crystal combinations. It blocks, purifies and deflects bad vibes. You can feel the change in your aura as soon as you hold this powerful trio

My friend gave me an apache tear. Idk what it is, but I feel way different with it. I can feel a magnet pulling out the pain from my abuse.

I love how you're describing the fiery energy of Black Obsidian as the snow gently falls in the woods. Nice juxtaposition.:)

I love your voice and the way you speak , Adam.😊

What a great video! i have recently come to own a fantastic obsidian slice, and I wish i knew where and when its from. i was honestly not sure of what energy to expect, especially since having a previous bad experience of being given someone else's stones, but back then neither of us knew to cleanse them. almost immediately my sleep is returning back to being uninterrupted, peaceful and restorative. within a week or two, a lot of deeply buried emotions have been uncharacteristically steaming to the top, and i was wondering why was i being so emotional. feels like at the same as if being purged by fire. thank you also for explaining how to cleanse obsidian. you explain things so well and with much depth!

Thank you🙂 I used back obsidian to connect with my throat chakra and root chakra when I was feeling panic speaking in a meeting and it calmed me down immediately. The only thing that has worked in about 12 years of looking for solutions!

I am soooo lucky I found you!! I love your energy! I love your voice! THANKYOU for sharing your info. Love and Blessings to you!

I'm new to using crystals and after having recently bought rose quartz and amethyst, black obsidian is what I'm going to buy next. I've been drawn to it for a while. Your crystal videos are so very helpful. Thanks so much 🌼✨

Black Obsidian was the 1st crystal ever that I was drawn to a couple of months ago,, And I’m so glad because it has always shown me the truth about anything I wanted/needed clarity about 🖤

I named my cat Obsidian cuz he black

I came here looking for clues to defeat the white walkers

I can be here for hours, since I have a deep passion for minerals, gems and geodes. They have such a unique role in this world, and mystical powers that await to be unlocked.

My most favorite and effective stone ♡♡ i cannot go without ☆

Thank you thank you thank you 🙏 obsidian has been calling me recently. I had. Piece of it already but I can feel like I’m being pulled to the crystal shop for a specific bracelet that I need, so that’s where I’m going today. As I’m typing this my ears are ringing (that usually means a yes or something positive for me) 😍

Are you related to Macklemore?

You are welcome dear one ! We met at a spirit mind body festival in sydney a few years ago and actually got to chat....i had no idea at the time that now I am such a big fan of your work and YOu Too !!!! love your work so much Adam. No-one discusses the Crystals in quite the same magnitude as You Do. Plus I love the knowledge of the ancient legends and greek/roman gods which add in, and always adds more information to this ancient metaphysical world of data.

APACHE TEAR & CLEAR QUARTZ Apache Tear is a form of Obsidian that shields your emotions, while Clear Quartz amplifies its protective qualities further. The Quartz also helps repair the aura

Hello Adam, great video! I want to describe a vision I had while meditating with a black obsidian sphere a few days ago. I also used clear quartz to amplify the experience. I think you'll find it very powerful. At the beginning I saw volcanic lava and fire devouring a massive forest, as thick coniferous trees burned while they were swallowed by lava. Eventually the landscape was just one big sea of hellish magma with volcanoes erupting in every horizon. Smoke filled my mind. Then my spirit appeared in the form of the devil's face burning with fire in the background. He assured me that at the end of this seance I would be reborn with a purified soul. When he disappeared rain cascaded onto the sea of lava solidifying it. This storm would bring back the vegetation, plants and trees originally destroyed. The forest eventually came back to pristine life full of tall trees and wildlife. Lightning struck all the animals in the land, sea and air charging their stregnth. My soul flew to this high mountain where there was this huge golden casket at the summit. When it opened this bright light poured out and once again my spirit appeared, this time in the form of a Egyptian pharoah. He assured me my soul was cleansed and purified. I tend to get these dark visions whenever I work with black obsidian. I know it's a purifier of dark energies, it's my intuition doing the cleansing. What do you think? Does anyone describe similar details while they work with this powerful crystal?

I once bought an amethyst and for some reason I felt drawn to it; it was my birthstone, but this felt more than that, and now I bring it everywhere I go.

Tried to sleep with my black obsidian and LITERALLY FELT AN EARTHQUAKE!! I thought someone was under my bed shaking it but no, it was just the energy and vibration. Scary at first haha

This is so far the best info I found/watch about obsidian.

Thank you Adam! Thank you for sharing your wealth of wisdom. Love to you 💗

Love your videos❤️ Finally came across black obsidian for protection today and its super powerful💜

Once during my deep state of meditation a black small bowl which was shining silver appeared in front of my inner eye I recognized as the obsidian. I started to search the meaning and the purpose of this Crystal although it’s not a crystal but however I found out it was giving to me in the meditation from the universe to buy it and to protect myself and to heal from emotional pain. From the wounds in my whole past life and my last relationship. I ordered a necklace a small round obsidian as seen during my meditation 🧘‍♀️ I’m waiting for it to receive an wear it.

I am obsessed with obsidian. It's the stone that opened the world of crystal energy healing. I was born Year of the Dragon, so this video taught me one more reason as to why it bonds so well to my needs.

Yea, cutting cord attachment is crucial to create auric boundaries. And this is why many distance away to not absorb lower level vibrations.

thank you just brought some home from outside of Lankview ,OR on my bike as I stacked stones going there from Klamath Falls,OR the one here of two has almost a Cystral from has squared side in all direction except one witch is slightly concaved in black Obsidian was able to grong home many wonderful finds leaving stacks of them along 140 Hwy look for the glare on the hills after the road work was done it looks like little dimonds sparkeling...............Hitomi

I have been drawn to use black obsedian lately and I don't know why. I just bought two more pieces and I'm aimply in love. thanks for the video and explanation on its uses. :)

I find your videos to be so informative and guiding! Thank you for your time and energy! 🖤🖖💜

i switch from black tourmaline to obsidian... i feel like it makes me a bit happier. tourmaline is great too.

the only time i ever won money i was wearing my favorite obsidian ring. also i am a water sign... a very deep swimming watersign so im out of bolance alot. i find that the obsidian give me a more balanced grounded feeling during those deep dives.

Good thing I bought a 30mm Beads bracelet of black obsidian and I'm excited to have it delivered. 🖤 Thanks for the video

Whoa when it started snowing that was just magic. Thank you for this video. :)

I love your videos man! This helped me out when choosing which crystals I want to work with and techmiques to ACTUALLY work with them. They are amazing little beings! Thanks for sharing the knowledge! Much love

I have slight chest pains at times and usually a crystal pendant cures it. Yet one day I went through all kinds of stones from lapis lazuli to Aventurine to jade. The only stone (this time) that could subside the chest pain was obsidian. If you're ever randomly sick or in trouble try it!

Black Obsidian + Pixiu = all your dreams come true

I could listen to you all day and night. 💜

I have an Obsidian Arrowhead so I decided to look Into its properties and what it can be used for.

Lovely snow in your back ground.

When it starts snowing... ❤

You have the most beautiful energy

DRAGONS! YES! I have an obsidian arrow-head necklace inspired by Game of Thrones.

Nice video, Adam. I use black obsidian for protection in conjunction with Mica as i find this combo works great for me personally in terms of deflecting negative thoughtforms and unwanted energies. I have tried black tourmaline but it wasn't as effective for me even though it has a nice grounding effect. I also wear a black obsidian arrow pendant and i have noticed it brings up truth in a rather blunt way. Being a fire sign myself (moon and sun) i do not mind this at all, i appreciate it. I like to combine snowflake obsidian (worn on the left wrist) with black obsidian, it seems to do a great job as cooling down my emotional reaction to unpleasant truths. Thanks for sharing your insight with us, all the best to you. x

Thanks so much for all your videos. I have learned a lot . May the universe keep enlightened you to keep sharing wisdom

I'm a beginner with crystals and while buying my first crystals amethyst, rose quartz & clear quartz, I kept feeling a pull towards black obsidian. Perhaps it's the way it's name sounds, but I couldn't get it out of my mind. So I bought some black obsidian tumble stones as well. And thanks to you, now I know how to work with them. Thanks 🙏🏼

Ohhh I just ordered a dragon pendant made on obsedian before you said this thank you for your video. I will meditate to get rid of my angry stuff.

Wow, I just got a black obsidian sphere and was wondering about ways I could connect with it during meditation. Thanks for a perfectly timed video! I will try out your suggestions.

Ever since I began to keep the black obsidian along side my pillow, I began to have nightmares actually the things and people that bothers in my waking life visits me in my dreams they began to mock me and try to harm me, they make me feel low in my dream. I've been bothered by such dreams lately, I've been waking up with the feeling of disgust, so I woke up today cleansed myself with sage and kept the black obsidian on my left hand and prayed for protection,I felt well after that, I believe I should not keep it next to my pillow while sleeping, since it's a new experience plz help me how to work with it because I need this black Obsidian the most in my life. My family needs it.

Hi , I used Obsidian to keep the mice or rats that were coming up my fire place. It worked cause I don't hear them anymore. Thank you for your wonderful video it was very informative. Peace Love and Light

Omg its snowing. What a magical vedio. Thank you earth💚

It’s a grounding crystal. I work with crystals

aww bless, you have lovely energy! :)

Hi. I had this weird experience. And I'm guessing it was due to the black obsidian bracelet I had in my pocket that time. I was in the bathroom and I suddenly had a feeling of hate towards someone I know. One of the cats that use to live outside my house had entered thru the front door and was pacing the living room. I had left the bathrrom door open for the cat to freely pass.Then moments afterwards I went from the bathroom to the kitchen to wash the dishes. The cat who entered appeared, unusual enough it seemed "quite active" and approached me hurriedly. First it went to rub itself against my legs, I thought it just wanted to greet me. Then I went inside my bedroom (it followed suit, hurriedly). It was there it attacked my right leg (I had the black obsidian in my right side pocket)! It used it paws to anchor to my legs and then bit me with its fangs in a snap. Then it stepped back, I was in a state of shock. Then minutes after I sent it out of my house.. I really felt bad.. Now I am thinking.. Did the black obsidian have somoething to do with what happened? Was it, like, the bad karma I received froom thinking hate towards that person, and the crystal just hastened the karma process? :( Can crystals ever do these things to the wearer? Please share your opinions / thoughts about it. I'd greatly appreciate it. Thank you so much!! Good day :)

I received a black obsidian pendant years ago n never use it, been searching how to connect with this stone for a long time but all I've heard till now didn't help me .... Thank you so much for your help and explanation, I've found everything I've been looking for so clear .

In kilograms, how much would I need in order to get to the nether? Just kidding, but for real, I had a particularly sharp shard of black obsidian that I was using for protection, but I accidentally dropped it and, due to it being so sharp, it tore a hole in the fabric of reality and created a portal to the spirit world. A dragon came through and the portal soon closed behind him. He's not too bad but he keeps setting my furniture on fire. How can I return him to the spirit world? I can't tear a new portal with the black obsidian. Please help me, I can only replace this futon so many times.

I feel a real pulling connection with you. Thank you so much!

Working With Psychic Protection Shields For the best results with protection stones, as well as programming them with your intention, I recommend you also visualise a protective bubble or egg of light around you. Try purple or gold light.

For some reason I was watching a video about chackra and zodiac and it lead me here. I never came across about obsidian not until today and learn its powers. By the way I don't have an obsidian however the inner powers that were discussed I'm not too sure why I can totally relate with them. It is like having the crystal without the physical item. The descriptions mentioned seems like its who I am and how I live my life.

Following your logic, try scrying with a piece of obsidian using dragonsblood incense either nearby or between you and the mirror. "Smoke and mirrors" also relates back to native lore in the americas to do with magic, doorways and the underworlds, etc. Do remember to close a door after you leave. :D Also, in Egypt it was the tool used to make the only cut in the body for mummification, so even there it has underworld ties.

What do you think of the Black Obsidian Pixiu Bracelet? I should be getting one soon

Thorough and concise. Thanks.

So cool how it started snowing in this video

Thank you Adam. I recently got a black obsidian bracelet and really want to understand the power and how I can reap the benefits. You made things so clear and explained everything.I really found your video helpful and it seemed very personal like you were just talking to me .thank you so much and keep up the good work .your a natural 🙏 Peace and good karma to you .

Hi Adam, I am making a protection grid and thought to visit your wonderful videos before selecting. Huge compliments for your amazing knowledge and video presentations. i love this crystal from all the info you provided. xxx always looking forward to your new videos via the email notifications and newsletter. wishing you power always xxxx

Black obsidian..... I acually bought a 2 piece yin & yang black obsidian necklace recently (a his /hers set for when i find "the one") one shows a dragon (my fave animal) other one a phoenix and i am a capricorn (earth sign) (ruled by saturn) i knew i felt a connection when i first held them in my hands

Hello Adam, today (Saturday) I felt a call to buy a black obsidian stone/crystal. I did and just watched your vid. I am to embark on my first meditation with the stone; thanks!

I love your insights on different crystals and the direct and indirect ways they work! Thank you!!

Hi Adam, and everyone else reading this. 👋 I have watched the gold sheen, and silver obsidian videos. I still have a question, though: out of these three types of obsidian, which is considered to be the most powerful and/or protective? If I chose gold or silver sheen instead of just black, would I be missing out on some benefits? Please, feel free to chime in and give me your sincere advice about this. Thank you in advance! 😊 Love and light to all! 💕

Guess what stone was used by Aztecs in rituals...obsidian knives! I am on the other side of it in this lifetime,letting it heal the past,from then and now.

I've been searching high and low for a video of black lava stones. Could you give me more information about the black lava stone or rock please

Namaste with gratitude i really enjoy learning and watching.

hi merry meet and many blessed be i got black obsidian and many rare types in different colors green rainbow and blue blue is great for astral travel i found it in oregon and iowa take care i mine stones around the us im old school pagan and a wind dragon white wizard

Would this be a good stone to keep in your car to help protect against accidents?

Idk about anyone else, but I noticed that when I get angry enough to engage in habits that are actually self-harmful, my obsidian necklace seems to get this rather intense heat about it, and it feels like its burning my skin...

Great video. Very informative! Thank you

Always love hearing your insights .glad I found you.🐍👁✡️🙌🏾

I ordered mine an it on it way black obsidian bracelet looking forward to wearing it.

I really like listening to you since you bringing facts in related to elemental traits.

8:27PM I actually am Gemstone Sphere gazing at Black Obsidian Sphere sitting atop Purple Flame Aura Quartz to feel The guilt (Traumatic Prolonged Grief Disorder) over a man I love who died from Overdose, and I have been gaining insight from the meditation. I love him so much!!! I just need to go through my full emotions to own them, including & especially guilt, and i feel that Black Obsidian Sphere is helping with that! What do you think Adam? Can Black Obsidian really help with that, as I feel it does help me, or do you have other Crystal's you can suggest as well? Very much thanks! Andrew.

Can you cleanse Black Obsidian directly in SEA WATER ?? because I live in front of the Ocean. Since it is a Volcano crystal, I am confuse if sea water is good for obsidian.

I want to protect myself from negative people around me in my office. Which crystal would work best for me? Black obsidian or a black tourmaline

Thanks man you help me make up my mind on which crystal to get. Good video.

Thank you so much, you have a very natural and kind way about you, an honest soul, a rarity these days.

thanks.. a love it 🤔🤔🤔🤗😊

They pave the streets with Obsidian - yeah!

Black obsidian is one of my birth crystals, but it makes me so depress. As soon as i realized that it was making me super depressed, i took it off after only 2 days
