ALERTNESS: Carry with you as a protective guide during times of anger or conflict as it helps diffuse fiery situations and emotions. It is also useful when when entering new environments or meeting new people  as it promotes sharpness and alertness so you can see through any BS.

EMPATHS: As a protection stone Black Obsidian is good for sensitive people, empaths or those who may be prone to psychic attacks or drained by other peoples energy.

CUTTING TIES: The sharp edges of black obsidian metaphysically act like a knife of a sword - helping you slice any chords, emotional ties or attachments that do not serve you. A powerful tool to help you cut those emotional pulls that are dragging you down.
