This natural Apache Tear played a part in my Summer Solstice 2026 grid, being one of the holding crystal that was added to the second stage.

To this crystal in more detail in a video, it was included in Part One Summer Solstice HERE

Apache Tears, was one of the first stones I purchased, in a tumbled form, and I was delighted when I spotted these natural/rough pieces. When you see a small piece of Apache Tears, one of the features of it is that it is  a much paler, smoky translucent variety of black Obsidian, but in bigger pieces like these, they appear denser and more opaque. These appear to be working on a much deeper level, and assisting with some deep, collective healing (tears).
