The pendulum is said to use you inner energy and direction from spirit guides to answer yes or no questions, give advice, tell if someone is lying or not, and to help you gain clarity and better understand situations. You can ask the pendulum questions about a variety of topics, such as life, love, health, career, and money. A pendulum board, also known as a dowsing board, is a divination tool used along with a pendulum to gain spiritual and material insight. The board’s patterns are designed to help the user find answers, with engraved text descriptions such as yes, no, maybe, rephrase, and more to help show your destiny.

It helps you cope with trauma, helping you feel lighter and grounded, opening and healing your heart with love. It will help you let go and step into the light. If you are living a life littered with lies, illusions and fear, Obsidian will help you find your way out of the shadows, making sharp and precise cuts to remove your obstacles to healing. It will help remove blockages that make you feel lost so that you can live without the confinements of fear. Black Obsidian is a smoky glass sword and a dark cloak that will bring you protection from danger and safety. Place two small polished pieces of Black Obsidian in each hand and/or upon your bare feet to find alignment when experiencing disarray in your life. To guard the home, place four Obsidian arrowheads facing each of the cardinal directions around a white candle to protect it. Obsidian will help you find a sense of inner peace, spiritual strength, confidence, and courage. Black Obsidian helps to boost your self-esteem and sense of self-worth. Obsidian is also believed to protect you from addiction, anxiety, and anger. Obsidian mirrors were used by some Aztec priests to conjure visions and make prophecies. They were connected with Tezcatlipoca, god of Obsidian and sorcery, whose name translates from the Nahuatl language as “Smoking Mirror”. Black Obsidian mirrors and spheres have been coveted by shamans and spiritualists, and the stone (or glass) was once more valuable than Gold. Dr. John Dee (1527-1608), a member of the court of the Queen of England, used an Obsidian scrying mirror and became famous for telling the future having uncovered many plots against the English crown. In the popular television series Game of Thrones, Obsidian is known as Dragon Glass. Description:  Obsidian is a naturally occurring volcanic glass formed when lava extruded from a volcano cools rapidly with minimal crystal growth. It is an igneous rock. Obsidian is produced from felsic lava, rich in the lighter elements such as silicon, oxygen, aluminium, sodium, and potassium. It is commonly found within the margins of rhyolitic lava flows known as obsidian flows. These flows have a high content of silica, granting them a high viscosity. The high viscosity inhibits diffusion of atoms through the lava, which inhibits the first step (nucleation) in the formation of mineral crystals. Together with rapid cooling, this results in a natural glass forming from the lava. Obsidian is mineral-like, but not a true mineral because, as a glass, it is not crystalline. Obsidian is hard, brittle, and amorphous; it therefore fractures with sharp edges. The first known archaeological evidence of usage was in Kenya around 700,000 BC. By the late Neolithic, sophisticated bladelets were made from Obsidian, which were used in ritual circumcisions and cutting of umbilical cords of newborns. In the past, it has been used to manufacture cutting and piercing tools, and it has been used experimentally as surgical scalpel blades. Obsidian was valued in Stone Age cultures who fractured it to produce sharp blades and arrowheads. It was also polished to create early mirrors. Today, Obsidian is used to make very sharp glass knives, which can have a cutting edge many times sharper than high-quality steel surgical scalpels. Due to its precision, it is used today in eye surgeries, plastic surgery, and dermatologic surgery. The major disadvantage of Obsidian blades is their brittleness compared to those made of metal. Obsidian is also used for ornamental purposes and as a gemstone. Plinths for audio turntables have also been made of Obsidian since the 1970s. Obsidian is found near volcanoes in locations which have undergone rhyolitic eruptions. It can be found in Argentina, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Australia, Canada, Chile, Georgia, Ecuador, El Salvador, Greece, Guatemala, Hungary, Iceland, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Kenya, Mexico, New Zealand, Papua new Guinea, Peru, Russia, Scotland, The Canary Islands, Turkey and the United States. There are only four major deposit areas in the central Mediterranean: Lipari, Pantelleria, Palmarola and Monte Arci (Sardinia). Ancient sources in the Aegean were Milos and Gyali. Acigöl town and the Göllü Dağ volcano were the most important sources in central Anatolia, one of the more important source areas in the prehistoric Near East. Obsidian flows that can be walked on are found within the calderas of Newberry Volcano and Medicine Lake Volcano in the Cascade Range of western North America, and at Inyo Craters east of the Sierra Nevada in California. Yellowstone National Park has a mountainside containing Obsidian located between Mammoth Hot Springs and the Norris Geyser basin, and deposits can be found in many other western US states including Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Texas, Utah, Washington, Oregon and Idaho. CLEANSING AND CHARGING Be sure to cleanse your Obsidian when received, and charge with your own energy and intentions. Use your feather fan to waft over it the smoke of purifying incense. Use sound vibrations from a singing bowl, bells, or tingsha chimes while quickly and carefully passing through the flame of a black candle. Place in a (preferably Selenite or Clear Quartz, just not any kind of metal) bowl on top of a bed of dead sea salt and leave soaking in the moonlight for at least four hours. Remove from the bowl, rinse for 30 seconds in (ideally natural, like a stream or in the rain) running water, then gently dry with a cloth (BE CAREFUL with stones that may easily scratch). Hold in your left hand (if wearing for receiving intentions) or right hand (if wearing for emitting intentions) and meditate your intentions and energy onto the stones for half an hour. Alternatively, cleanse by smudging then holding under running water (or leaving out in rainwater) for at least 30 seconds, dry, and gently place in a bed of sea salt on a windowsill after sunset for a few hours. Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals and cleaning products. Because your gemstones can absorb negative energy, avoid allowing others to touch or handle them and be sure to cleanse regularly. Recharge as needed by placing in the sunlight or moonlight for a few hours, or by burying in the earth for a day or two. Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals and cleaning products. Do not use heat or steam to clean. Avoid prolonged exposure to water or sunlight. Avoid contact with hard surfaces, and take care not to subject to hard bumps or sharp blows.   Sources: https://spiritartsandherbs.com/sources **IMPORTANT INFORMATON: Products are sold as curio items for entertainment purposes only and based upon historical and magical uses.  We do not imply or guarantee that any items provide specific abilities, powers, outcomes, remedies, or treatments.
