Or maybe you have a whole collection but aren't sure how to use them? Join 4 crystal nerds, healers, workers, and lovers for crystal confab, a casual chat about all things crystals. Nicholas Pearson: Hello, and welcome to crystal confab, a podcast where 4 crystal experts come together to confab about a new crystal each week. Join Ashley Leavy, Kyle Perez, Adam Barralet, and myself, Nicholas Pearson, this week for our conversation about spider web obsidian. So how's everyone doing this week? Adam Barralet: I'm really good and excited to talk about an Obsidian, but a bit of a rarer Obsidian that maybe doesn't get as much attention as some of the others. Ashley Leavy: I'm really looking forward to this conversation also, because here in the northern hemisphere, we are getting, you know, well into the deep autumn, and I love this idea of this spiderweb obsidian kind of tying into our end of the year seasonality here. So I'm really looking forward to this chat. Kyle Perez: Me too. I am very excited, of course. This one, I had to do a bit of homework on. So I'm excited to share that. Yeah. Adam: So let's dive into it, Ashley. You know, as you do work move into the autumn time, you know, where is this crystal kind of really great for you at the moment? Ashley: Yeah. So for me, this stone is really about the interconnectedness of all things. If we think about a spider's web, it has each of these little strands that then get woven together and all connected. And I, you know, we can't help but feel a little ripple, a little movement in one area when there's something happening somewhere else. So we can see this on the microcosm, like in our own personal life, right? If things are a little, not quite on an even keel, we feel some choppy waters over here. We're gonna feel that in other areas of our life, but we can also really see and experience that on a larger scale when things are really out of balance and really out of alignment in the world, which they are, which they have been, which they will continue to be. We feel it. We feel it on the personal level. We feel it on the community level. We feel it on the global level, and helping us understand our role in that greater, you know, macrocosm perspective of things, I think, is where this stone really shines. So acting as a touchstone, a reminder to show up in bigger ways, not just for ourself, not just for our friends and family, but for our greater community, really showing up to be of service, to care for one another, to do our bit, to make the world a better place, I think is one of the things, one of the lessons that this stone really has to share with us. And this isn't, you know, just on the sort of mundane level, although it's great to show up and do those important acts. This stone also reminds us that we can do this on a magical level. So, you know, this could look like community service, maybe volunteering at your local community garden plot or something like that, but this also is in this space. So reminding us that our magical practice in whatever form that takes, our healing practice and whatever form that takes, isn't just about self, that it should be really rooted in community care, because everything is so interconnected, because those ripples go out so much further than what we can see. So that's one of my favorite things about the spiderweb obsidian.
