Black Obsidian is often used for scrying mirrors, spheres, and chord-cutting tools (obsidian blade).

It is one of the most powerful dark stones because it has the power of the elements of fire, water and earth. A volcanic glass, Obsidian holds the power of truth, protection, grounding, healing, self-reflection and more. Tourmaline acts as an enhancer so it’s grounding energy, although powerful, isn't so heavy energy-wise. Practitioners use it for protection from low vibrational entities during work as well as scrying. Other uses include grounding, easing anxiety, rebalancing the body, psychic/empath protection, removing negative or disruptive energy, shielding yourself from energy vampires, empowerment, and protection from radiation and environmental pollutants. Black Tourmaline transmutes negative energies and doesn’t need to be cleaned, unlike black obsidian.

Black Tourmaline, also known as Schorl, has long been used in magic and healing.
