Black Obsidian: Protection – Grounding - Strength
Black Obsidian has a strong healing energy.  It is known to aid the release of addictive behaviors, eating disorders, physical pain, and emotional blockages.   Black Obsidian will help keep the space protected against negativity.  It is a deeply grounding and protective crystal that brings power and strength.   It shields one from negativity in the environment, from others, and from within the self. 

A set of Platonic solids represents foundational sacred geometry, where each of the five 3-dimensional shapes mirrors the building blocks of the universe and corresponds to a classical element. Crystal practitioners use these sets to balance chakras, amplify manifestation, and deepen meditation.

 The crystal meanings for the 5 fundamental geometric forms include:

•  Tetrahedron (Fire): Associated with the solar plexus chakra. Symbolizes the divine spark, creativity, passion, and personal power.

• Cube or Hexahedron (Earth): Associated with the root chakra. Promotes grounding, stability, structured thought, and physical endurance.

• Octahedron (Air): Associated with the heart chakra. Symbolizes the intellect, mental focus, balance, and harmony.

• Icosahedron (Water): Associated with the sacral chakra. Represents emotional balance, flexibility, and the free flow of life energy.

• Dodecahedron (Ether): Associated with the upper chakras (third eye and crown). Symbolizes the universe, spirit, higher consciousness, and divine connection.
