Black Obsidian Crystal Raven

Black Obsidian Crystal Tombstone 

$49.95

A black obsidian artefact shaped like a tombstone, featuring a skull and crossbones, is often used for active protection, ancestral veneration, and as a memento mori, symbolising the cycle of life and death. Black obsidian is valued for its protective and grounding qualities. Its deep black colour is believed to absorb negative energy and shield against psychic attacks. For this reason, practitioners place obsidian artefacts near doors or windows to protect the home from unwanted influences. With a tombstone shape, the skull-and-crossbones emblem adds ritual significance and serves as a reminder of mortality. This concept, summed up in the Latin phrase memento mori, encourages reflection on the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth rather than being morbid. Often called the stone of the ancestors, this black obsidian tombstone measuring 8cm high, 6.5cm wide, and 3cm deep, may help facilitate a connection with those who have passed and may act as a focal point on an ancestor altar.   Specifications Description: Black Obsidian Crystal Tombstone Material: Natural Black Obsidian crystal Dimensions: H8cm x W6.5cm x D3cm, approximately PLEASE NOTE: This crystal is a natural product and may vary in shape, colour, and size.

Black Obsidian Crystal Skull ‘Small’

$24.95

In ancestral veneration, crystal skulls function as symbolic tools to facilitate connection with ancestors. It is commonly believed that the skull’s form and the crystal's inherent energy enable it to serve as a wisdom keeper, holding ancestral memories. Within ritual contexts, the skull operates as a conduit between realms, enabling practitioners to focus their intentions and receive messages from their lineage. Black obsidian skulls are powerful tools used for grounding, protection, and shadow work when connecting with ancestors. When used for shadow work, black obsidian skulls help confront and release deep-seated generational patterns, unresolved grief, or ancient traumas passed down through a family line. Because obsidian is a volcanic glass associated with the root chakra, it is believed to provide a stable foundation for exploring the intense emotional layers of lineage healing. This black obsidian skull, measuring 3.5cm high, 3.2cm wide, and 4.5cm deep, is a significant addition to an altar. Positioned at the centre of an ancestral altar, it serves as a guardian, filtering the energy entering the sacred space.   Specifications Description: Small, Black Obsidian Crystal Skull Material: Natural Black Obsidian crystal Dimensions: H3.5cm x W3.2cm x D4.5cm PLEASE NOTE: Each piece is hand-cut and polished from raw stone.
