"Snowflake Obsidian is a  stone of purity, balancing body, mind and spirit. It helps to recognize and release wrong thinking and ingrained patterns. Snowflake Obsidian brings about inner centering. Treats veins and the skeleton. Balances the physical body.

In general, Obsidian is an excellent grounding stone and provides for a connection from the base of the spine to the heart of the Earth. It is also a wonderful protection stone providing a shield against negativity and transforming negative vibrations within the environment. Carrying or wearing Obsidian assists in dispersing those unloving thoughts which arise from within the self or are directed toward ones physical form. It is very useful in healing, providing both the healer and the subject with clarity in respect to both the cause and the amelioration of the dis-ease."
