Just like buying other gemstones, clarity, color and size are factors we usually consider.

Obsidian is usually an opaque dark brown to black, but when you hold it under light you can see that it glows. Obsidian is usually black, but in rare cases it can be brown-gray or have a small amount of red. There are many sellers on the market who use artificial glass to pass off inferior products as genuine ones. When verifying, use strong light to illuminate the gem. If it shows a bluish or purple light, then it proves that the obsidian is a fake product. Some people on the market use black agate instead of obsidian, but black agate is opaque, while obsidian is translucent under light.

There are many types of obsidian, the most common one is black obsidian, which has a black tone and low transparency. For silver obsidian, there will be silvery-white spots or stripes on the base. Golden obsidian has golden spots or streaks. The rainbow eyes of colored obsidian can be cat's eye or round, with round being better. Ice obsidian is highly transparent and has a translucent texture like ice and snow. Snow Obsidian is black and white, looking like snowflakes. There will be red filaments or ribbons inside the bloodstone. Purple-eyed obsidian will emit purple or purple-red light when exposed to light.

Obsidian Taboo

When we keep obsidian, we should avoid direct sunlight. Strong light will cause the crystal to change color and affect the energy field. If you want to purify obsidian, it is recommended to use clean water or place it in a demagnetizing stone for purification. The purification effect will be better overnight. Because obsidian absorbs more negative energy, it is recommended to purify it two to three times a month. If you have been in poor health recently and have been feeling down for a while, you should do more purifications. Demagnetization can be done using moonlight or demagnetizing stones. At the same time, be sure to take off the obsidian when doing strenuous exercise or physical labor to avoid scratches caused by collision. Finally, avoid contact with chemicals and wipe off any sweat that comes into contact with them.

If you go to a solemn occasion such as a hospital or a funeral, you should take off the obsidian. These places have too much negative energy, which will affect the energy field of the obsidian. You should also take off the obsidian when you go to bed at night, otherwise it will affect your sleep quality.
