Lithotherapy esoteric indications:
- Celestial Eye Obsidian evacuates all “entities”, by aligning and purifying all the chakras. Heavenly Eye Obsidian should be used with respect. It is attributed with the power to repel psychic and occult attacks. It is one of the most powerful and complete obsidians. Cut into a ball or cabochon, it is the divine witness to the quest for truth and knowledge. It is the seat of all positive energies and powerfully radiates its protection. It promotes the elevation of the soul, the expansion of the aura towards the higher layers of the spiritual, the passage from one energetic body to another, access to divine light. It can be associated with azurite, sapphire, lapis lazuli in spiritual research. Even more than any other obsidian, we owe it the greatest respect because it is the eye of the supreme spirit. She will only be called upon for work of the greatest importance, otherwise she will not feel any activation, or even disapproval. It is a stone capable of bringing great joy and lavishing a lot of happiness but, in case of disrespect towards it, it can cause great sadness. It is very effective in curing nervous breakdowns, convulsions, hysteria, epilepsy and calming fear. It is also a stone of evolution which leads to real “letting go” by letting fly the veils that we had placed on our shadows, our fears and on everything that we prefer to conceal and by therefore placing ourselves in front of our responsibilities and helping us to get rid of things by working on ourselves. It is likely that during this work and after the veils are removed, a feeling of unease and anxiety appears. It will then be appropriate to wear rose quartz to attenuate these effects and allow the obsidian to fully do its work.

- Manto huichol obsidian, also called Mentogochol, is an uncommon obsidian. it is sought after for its rich colors...and for its energetic virtues!
- Manto Huichol obsidian has the same properties as rainbow obsidian, but is more powerful and vibrates faster. Its name comes from its bright coloring reminiscent of the visions of the Huichol during their rituals with Peyote. Its coloring does not form concentric circles, but rather disordered as if spread with a brush. All golden and silver obsidians have the same coloring arrangement as Manto huichol, some also form concentric circles highlighting an eye. Celestial eye with variegated colors: it has the appearance of an abstract art painting, a “smear of color”. All the qualities of the celestial eye but amplified and higher vibrations. It exacerbates our capacities for understanding and self-analysis, confronting us directly with the aspects of our personality that need to be urgently modified. We are facing our mirror! It is a panacea for personal development. It goes without saying that the connection with the other spiritual dimensions and their inhabitants is perfect. Obsidian “mentogochol” will extract, even in our past lives, the accumulated sadness and melancholy which disrupt our current emotional life. For this reason, I advise you to wear a self-healed or self-regenerated rock crystal at the same time to create a flow of energy exchange which will allow the energy of Love to settle in place of the old ones. energies released. An ordinary rock crystal programmed for the self-healing of the emotional body will also do the trick, as well as any other stone that appeals to you. In the field of energies, there is only one rule: listen to your heart and your intuition. I invite you to tame this particular stone by first wearing it for short periods: let your intuition and your feelings guide you. Welcome with gratitude the release of buried emotions and give way to newfound joy."
