Black Obsidian Skull

This dark and mysterious stone has many different meanings for healers and meditators. But at its core, the most commonly accepted black obsidian meaning is all about cleansing dark energy.
All of its other potential benefits revolve around its ability to eliminate the smog of dark energy around your aura, providing a path for grounding light to reach you.
Black obsidian is a powerful stone of protection. The energy it emits has the ability to protect you from the darkness that lingers around every corner. Healers believe that its cleansing powers shed a light on the darkness that you may not even see or feel yourself!
 
 
In metaphysics, crystal skulls are used for ceremonial work, healing, energy work, and enhancing one's psychic abilities. Used for healing, we go to themes of self awareness and creating balance to opening psychic abilities to be able to understand the nature of human creation and evolution.

Holding an object to exchange energies and/or receive messages with it, is called psychometry. To find messages while look at the inclusions within a quartz crystal, or crystal skull, is a form of divination called Scrying. There are countless hypotheses that the crystal skulls are the legacy of some higher intelligence or ancient astronauts who seeded the human race.
