Obsidian has a deep spiritual meaning. Let’s explore its spirituality and wisdom a bit deeper, shall we?
The spiritual meaning of Obsidian is that it is the ultimate stone to confront your shadow self and enter the realm of darkness.
The dark sorcerer of the crystal world, Obsidian’s penetrating energy will take
you on a deep-rooted journey of the underworld. So be ready for a dark adventure!
Obsidian isn’t for the faint-hearted, its powerful gravitational pull gives
it the ability to draw our deepest and darkest insecurities and demons.
For myself, it is one of the most intense stones to work with, so much so,
I can sense it’s energy through my body on a physical level, like a heavy electric current, trying to unleash Pandora’s box by force!
This experience can be frightening if you are not ready.
But if you set the intention to face your shadows and prepare yourself for overcoming
your most traumatic fears, it can be the stone that brings you the most transformational experience to your life.
One’s spiritual journey to ascension can only continue to rise when the shadow work has been complete.
In order to expand to new levels of enlightenment, ground work, or earthly lessons must be learnt.
For one to understand the ying energy, one must experience the yang, and vice versa.
Each individual must first-hand experience the law of polarity as part of their spiritual evolution.
As one state cannot truly be understood without a polar experience of the other.
This law of polarity can be clarified through the consciousness of different crystals.
For example, the contrast between the darkness and density of
Obsidian and the lightness and grace of Selenite,
the crown chakra crystal, linking us to the angelic and spiritual realm.
