Snowflake Obsidian

Snowflake Obsidian

This visually intriguing variety of quartz is formed after a volcanic explosion and has a fine, snowflake pattern all over it that is a result of crystals growing on the volcanic glass once it has cooled down. Snowflake Obsidian is a stone that revolves around introspection, it allows us to recognise unhealthy habits in our own behaviour and gives us the ability to change for the better. This ability makes it a wonderful communication aid, making us speak clearly and with care as opposed to resorting to outbursts or arguments instead. Furthermore, it excels at aiding those who are trying to deal with and overcome past traumas. Providing us with the ability to analyse this emotional pain and disentangle it from our lives, bringing forth feelings of peace and serenity. There are quite a few stones that you can pair Snowflake Obsidian with and some of the best include Lapis Lazuli which has a similar introspective energy to Snowflake Obsidian. Sodalite, another popular healing stone, and then also Pyrite, which has an amplifying energy and therefore makes the Snowflake Obsidian even more potent.
