Obsidian

Obsidian is an igneous rock which means that it is made up of volcanic materials. It is formed when molten rock is immediately cooled to create a sort of black glass. Obsidian can come in many colors such as green, tan, and brown and rarely can be seen in the colors blue, red, orange, and yellow. It is technically found around the world but you can find it’s purest form in geologically volcanic areas where there has been recent volcanic activity. 

Fun Fact:

Looking as sharp as it may feel to the touch, obsidian has been sharpened to such a fine point that it has replaced steel surgical tools for the most precise surgeries in the medical field.

Magickal Properties and Uses:

Black obsidian

Protection, scrying, banishing grief, benevolence, healing

Green obsidian

Protection of income; open financial opportunities

Snowflake obsidian

Grounding, responsibility, purification, change, growth, deflecting negative energy and emotions

Obsidian can be used for divination, spellcasting, rituals and more. Here are some ideas:

Placing it in a charm bag with other magickal items. The effects can give you protection when roaming around in your everyday life or to help heal from depression and grief. 

Using it in your rituals. Just placing the rock on your altar can serve as a natural absorber of negative energy and to keep your circle pure. 

Use the rock while meditating. Having a polished obsidian rock in your hand while meditating can help with concentration and grounding when you really need it. Being one who has trouble focusing, I use the stone to focus on like how it feels in my hand, the cool touch, the warming of the stone from my body heat.

🌟Simple Wish Spell🌟

Spend some time grounding yourself 🌿

Spread some salt around your sacred space and place a white candle in front of you 🧂

Light the candle and focus on the flame thinking only of your wish 🕯

When you feel like you’ve spent enough time making your wish, put out the candle and thank the spirits or deities for your time spent with them. 🌙

Loving yourself is the first step for a fulfilling, happy life.

This is exactly what I do while also focusing on my breathing. With added relaxing music works 100%~

Journal 7 - 8/17/2021

So although I have been sick for the last few days, I'm starting to come back slowly. I don't need to stay in bed all day anymore luckily and I'm back on my feet. My coughing still needs to be worked on so I'm hoping the Robitussin takes care of that officially. Today's my last day off from work and I hope to get some stuff planned and taken care of today despite my exhaustion still. (I know I should still rest but my mind is awake and I cannot take another day of doing nothing... it actually annoys the heck out of me.)

Anyway, things have been looking up for me lately, I have a new job that I will be starting soon in September~ I'm hoping this will be a much more positive work environment and won't be completely draining all the time. I'll still be doing the same thing but the new environment has been something I've been after. There are some people in my current work environment that have a vendetta against me for no reason and I can't even reason with them because I don't know what they're mad about. It's grown into such an awful, hateful work atmosphere... And you know it's bad when even in my fever dreams, it's about my hateful coworkers... It's literally driving me to madness. It's funny because I used to get along with everyone perfectly fine, I literally don't know what happened.

Lately I've been planning some extra content, reading up on some books, studying up, trying to come up with a "curriculum" (not quite sure what to call it) for all of you. I feel like I've really been falling flat on my face lately and I apologize... Life is difficult for me right now financially and mentally. I have all these ideas and don't quite know what to do with them yet unfortunately but it'll come to me, I promise.

Stay Blessed,

All my stress fades as good news, possibilities and opportunities are awaking, and having family and friends to help be supportive has really helped me in these trying times. I will elaborate more in an upcoming journal~ I went out into nature today to get away and suddenly had good news~ I’m extremely happy and feel so lucky.

Blessed in practicing patience 🌙✨
