Snowflake Obsidian is a stone of purity bringing balance to our mind, body and spirit.  An excellent stone to remove negativity from all aspects of our lives, Snowflake Obsidian keeps us grounded and balanced during chaotic times.  It is a great stone to keep at your office or workplace if you encounter difficult people.  Snowflake Obsidian is formed when molten lava from a volcanic eruption cools too quickly.  It reminds us that our hidden emotions, if not addressed, will cause an eruption from within and damper our ability to progress on our journey.  It reminds us to bring our issues to the surface gently in order to give us time to process them, understand them and eventually heal from them.  Snowflake Obsidian encourages us to focus on the present moment and let all that needs to burn, burn holding onto only what is pure.
