Obsidian

A highly hard volcanic igneous rock, its name comes from the Latin obsidianus lapis which means obsius gemstone, Roman who first discovered it in Ethiopia.

In the archaic period it was used by hunters to create spearheads. In pre-Hispanic cultures, the use of obsidian was of enormous importance, being a symbol of high ritual content and an essential element in all kinds of offerings until well into the colony.

Obsidian encourages us to grow and supports us while we do so. It is the gemstone for those who do not want to stop, for those who tirelessly seek, for those who can find answers where others see nothing.
