Magnificent celestial eye obsidian pebble measuring 40mm to 60mm.

The pebbles were photographed using a camera equipped with a flash in order to best bring out the reflections of the obsidians.

Obsidian is a volcanic rock rich in silica. Different kinds of obsidian exist. They differ due to the chemical composition of the rock. Obsidian is actually a natural glass. It forms during an eruption of lava rich in silica with less than 3% water. As it leaves the volcano, it cools very quickly, freezing the crystallization process.

This may be similar to a piece of lava suddenly frozen as it leaves the volcano. The direct consequence of this phenomenon is the impossibility for the rock to crystallize. The result is the creation of a volcanic glass with a uniform texture and which we describe as an amorphous mineral. Furthermore, obsidian has sharp edges and blades of great finesse. It is a natural mineral with a complex composition.

So, obsidian consists mainly of silicon dioxide about 70%, or even more. Its fracture is conchoidal (i.e. furrowed with curved and concentric striations) and its hardness is 5 to 5.5 on the Mohs scale. It has different colors, different reflections due to the volcano where it was discovered and its various inclusions. It should be noted that each deposit, linked to a volcano, provides a different obsidian.

Green, brown, gray or black, it can sometimes have golden, silver, or even all the colors of the rainbow reflections (effect produced by the presence of hematites or magnesites). It also happens that two colors of obsidian mix.

Heavenly eye obsidian is also called rainbow obsidian. It is a black obsidian with areas of color ranging from purple to green.

Heavenly Eye Obsidian is the result of a rare phenomenon. This is the contact of lava with water, when lava flows into a lake or ocean. The thermal shock then causes a glassy texture. Thus, the captured iron and magnesium create a mixture of rainbow colors.

Heavenly eye obsidian is a natural glass. This volcanic stone solidified in a layer up to 40 cm thick. When the stone is cut into a sphere shape, the reflections represent concentric circles that evoke eyes. In the United States, we prefer the name rainbow obsidian due to its multiple colors.

When layering nanoparticles of elements (feldspar, hedenbergite, magnetite, etc.), an optical effect occurs. Light entering obsidian becomes trapped in natural glass. A rainbow effect occurs and gives the stone its soft colors. An eye shape is observed when polishing the stone.

In lithotherapy, celestial eye obsidian has extremely protective power. It surrounds its wearer with armor, which repels negative energies and harmful influences. It transforms them into light and wards off bad luck.
