If you are a crystal lover, you will be familiar with black obsidian stone, well-known for its protective function, similar to the Tiger eye. Let’s explore further.
What are Black Obsidian and its Uses?
In the world of crystals, many people regard Black Obsidian as one of the most protective stones used to cleanse negative energies. This is because it does not only remove negativity in the space but also get rid of a person’s undesired feeling. They can be anger, resentment, fear, anxiety, and other unwanted emotions.
There are many colours and patterns in obsidian, for example, stripes, dots, full colour or even the most popular colourful rainbow obsidian, single-eyed/double-eyed. However, the most widely used is the full solid black one. It also comes in different forms and is crafted into jewellery like pendants, bracelets and necklaces. Some people even use black obsidian gemstone to make it into religious figurines and Feng Shui ornaments.

Which hand should I wear the bracelet?
In general, it is a practice to wear any crystal bracelet on the left hand because the Chinese believed that the right-hand side is to absorb, while the left-hand side is to repel. If we wear the black obsidian bracelet on the right, it helps to act as a shield to protect us from negative vibes in and out around us.
In recent years, it has been a trending fashion to incorporate a gold Pixiu with black obsidian to make a bracelet. In such a case, you should wear the bracelet on your left hand instead because the primary intention is to attract more wealth luck. But you must also take note of the do’s and don’t of wearing a Pixiu bracelet.
