Natural Black Obsidian Scrying Mirror with Stand (5.9")

Obsidian is a strongly protective stone, known to shield against negative energy. Divination with a mirror or another reflective surface is an ancient practice known as scrying. Scrying is the practice of looking into crystal balls, mirrors, water, fire, clouds and many other things to see visions and find messages.

Scrying mirrors have been used for thousands of years to help to predict and connect with other spiritual worlds. They claim that the technique allows them to see relevant events or images within the chosen medium. Nostradamus practiced scrying; he would stare into a bowl of water or a "magic mirror" to see the future while he was in trance.

Aztec and Mayan civilizations also used black mirrors, often made of Obsidian as a tool of divination.
