Snake Skin Obsidian is a type of volcanic glass that forms when lava cools quickly and solidifies before large mineral crystals can form. It is named for its distinctive appearance, which resembles the textured and patterned skin of a snake.
In addition to its unique appearance, Snake Skin Obsidian is believed to have powerful metaphysical properties. It is said to help promote transformation, shedding old habits and behaviors like a snake shedding its skin. It is also believed to help promote spiritual growth and personal insight, allowing individuals to better understand their own motivations and desires.
