occult believers obtain obsidian blades volcano's black blood 23rd August 2020 * Solidified lava which cools rapidly forms the crystal, Obsidian. It's synonymous with spiritual rituals, used historically by witches, carved into swords. Isaac Newtown apparently has a more contemporary association with Obsidian. * Obsidian is described as a color in my reference book, 'The Secret Lives of Colour' by Kassia St. Clair 2016 * Black, with hint of transluscent olive green.
