Mahogany Obsidian

Gemological info: Mahogany Obsidian is known for its swirls or mottlings of black and brown. These patterns are caused by its iron inclusions Magnetite and Hematite. It may gleam like a highly polished piece of wooden furniture, but Mahogany Obsidian is every inch a rock.

Healing the sacral chakra is said to reactivate one’s pleasures, playfulness, and sexuality. It also removes psychic blockages and assists in inducing spiritual awakening.
