Black Obsidian:
Black Obsidian is a volcanic glass formed when molten lava cools rapidly. Its glossy, jet-black surface has been used for centuries for spiritual and practical purposes.
Healing & Energy Capabilities:
Protection: Black Obsidian is known as a powerful protective stone. It’s believed to shield you from negativity, psychic attacks, and unwanted energies.
Emotional Healing: This stone can help bring buried emotions to the surface so they can be faced and released. It’s sometimes called the “truth stone” for its ability to reveal what needs to be healed.
Grounding: Black Obsidian connects you deeply to the Earth, making it a great stone for grounding scattered energy and feeling safe and stable.
How to Use:
Wear it to protect your energy, meditate while holding it to help release emotional blockages or negative thoughts, put by your front door or near electronics to absorb unwanted energies.

Labradorite/Larvikite:
While Labradorite and Larvikite are similar-looking stones, they have slight differences. Labradorite is a feldspar mineral known for its flashes of blue, green, and gold (called labradorescence). Larvikite, sometimes called “Norwegian Moonstone,” is a type of feldspar too and comes from Norway—its shimmer is subtler but equally as beautiful.
Healing & Energy Capabilities:
Transformation: Labradorite is known as the stone of transformation. It’s believed to strengthen intuition, awaken psychic abilities, and support you through change.
Protection: Like Black Obsidian, Labradorite and Larvikite are protective stones, shielding your aura and keeping unwanted energies at bay.
Mental Clarity: Larvikite is especially known for cleansing the mind of chaotic thoughts, helping you focus and stay grounded.
Connection: Both stones are believed to strengthen your connection to your higher self and spiritual guides.
How to Use:
Wear it to heighten intuition and protect your energy, use it during meditation, place it on your desk to clear mental clutter or near your bed for dream recall and protection during sleep, carry a small piece with you (ie. tumble or palm stone) when you are going through big changes to stay centered and open to new possibilities.
Whether you’re drawn to the deep, reflective power of Black Obsidian or the mystical flashes of Labradorite and Larvikite, these stones can become powerful allies on your journey. They remind us to clear out what no longer serves us, protect our energy, and trust our inner wisdom.
