OOH I just love the wintry name of snowflake obsidian, with its delicate lacey flecks embedded in the dark like snowflakes in the night. This crystal also feels quite lightweight in your hand, kind of like a snowflake in terms of the rock world, although yes it is still pretty heavy.
Snowflake obsidian is renowned for bringing a grounded and composed approach when working towards your goals. This is partly why snowflake obsidian is often recommended for hard-working Capricorns, who can benefit from the crystal’s calming influence when climbing the rugged mountain of work.
This unique form of obsidian is believed to embody the essence of balance and the interplay between light and shadow. Part of the reaason why it’s often associated with Capricorn season (and starsign) thanks to its ability to assist in releasing negative patterns and help promote personal growth, which aligns with the GOAT’s innate drive for self-improvement.
Need to clear the mental clutter? Snowflake Obsidian is here for it. Distractions? Consider them cancelled. Negative thoughts? Evicted! Snowflake obsidian can give you that extra oomph to tackle challenges and rise above responsibilities with grace.
During the Capricorn new moon all zodiac signs can benefit from the calm and supportive energy of snowflake obsidian. Don’t forget, we all have a tenth house which relates to Capricorn! And not to mention snowflake obsidian can help you better tune into the law of attraction by helping to release blocks, baggage and trauma, so you can align with your deepest desires and take steps towards those cherished goals. Nice!

Meditation to help you achieve your goals through visualisation with snowflake obsidian
In this meditation you simply focus on the area in front of your eyelids and imagine a blank canvas. Picture this mental canvas as your artistic journal and notice the colours, images, symbols and words that pop up.
Afterwards you can create your own vision board to capture your goals and those messages of insight that appeared during your meditation. If any fears pop up, make a note of them too, and work on journaling and EFT to help release them. Let creativity guide you, creating a physical reminder of your aspirations.
Creative vision board meditation: Bridging dreams and reality
Begin by finding a quiet and comfortable space where you won’t be disturbed. Sit or lie down in a relaxed position. Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths to centre yourself. Inhale positivity and exhale any tension or stress.
Shift your focus to yourself five years from now. See yourself achieving success and fulfilment in your chosen endeavours. Imagine the confidence and joy radiating from your future self.
Take a moment to connect with your future self. Feel only positive emotions. If anything negative comes up, allow yourself to feel them, then let the emotion simply fade away.
Visualise your goal coming true. Take a moment to appreciate the beauty and fulfilment of your mental creation. Feel the satisfaction and gratitude for the dreams that are unfolding within your mind. Continue like this, breathing into the feeling of joy that comes from achieving your goals.
Imagine a blank canvas in your mind, representing your artistic journal. See it as a space where your dreams and aspirations can take form. Picture your goal vividly. Visualise the details, colours, and emotions associated with it. Let the images flow freely in your mind.
Begin adding vibrant colours, images, and words to your mental canvas. Let each element represent a part of your dreams and goals. Feel the excitement building as your mental vision board comes to life.
Open your eyes slowly and transition to the physical realm. Keep the mental images alive as you bring your attention to the artistic journal in front of you.
With intention, transfer the images from your mental vision board to your artistic journal. Use colours, sketches, and words to capture the essence of your aspirations on paper.
Allow your creative instincts to guide you as you express your dreams on the pages of your journal. This physical representation will serve as a tangible and powerful reminder of your goals.
Take a moment to reflect on the completed vision board in your artistic journal. Affirm to yourself that these dreams are not just aspirations but goals that you are actively working towards. Close the meditation with a sense of gratitude for your goals coming true.
