Black Obsidian Anubis Egyptian God of the Dead Carving
Anubis is an Egyptian god, known as the God of the Dead. He is depicted with the head of a jackal, and helped guide souls into the afterlife. It's thought that he is depicted with the jackal head as many jackals were seen roaming the areas of the tombs in Ancient Egypt. This carving is made from black obsidian and you will receive the exact piece as shown in the photos/video. It measures about 3 5/8" x 2 1/16" x 1 15/16" and weighs about 5.38 oz.
Metaphysical Properties:
Black obsidian is most known in the metaphysical world for being a psychic vacuum or scrubber, cleaning out negativity, clutter and debris from the past. I see this stone more as a mirror for self reflection, as it does this by bringing to light the things that we are shying away from - our shadow self. As this happens we have a new awareness and a heart based perspective, which can ultimately lead to integration. This makes obsidian a stone of transformation and renewal. Like many other black stones, obsidian resonates with the root chakra, helping to balance and open the energy so we feel more refreshed and rooted. It also helps us stay in the "now" moment instead of reminiscing on what has already happened, or worrying about things to come.
