This episode drops on March 3, the day of a total lunar eclipse, often called a Blood Moon. During a total lunar eclipse, the Moon passes fully into Earth’s shadow, sometimes appearing deep red. These eclipses are powerful turning points—moments of revelation, release, and emotional reckoning.

And today’s crystal, black kyanite, is the perfect ally.

Black kyanite doesn’t soften energy.
It clears it. It sweeps it. It realigns it.

🩸 In This Episode:

• The energetic meaning of a lunar eclipse
• Why eclipse season feels intense and disruptive
• The Earth Star Chakra (located 6–12 inches below the feet) and its connection to grounding, ancestral memory, and the living Earth
• Why black kyanite is known as “The Witch’s Broom”
• Its ability to clear energy instantly without absorbing or storing it
• Astrological ties to Aries (decisive cutting), Taurus (grounding), and Libra (balance)
• Its association with the faerie realm and land spirits
• Protective lore linking it to Archangel Michael, the warrior of truth
• The science behind its formation under intense geological pressure

🌑 Ways to Work with Black Kyanite During the Blood Moon:

• Sweep it downward along your body to clear your aura
• Place it near or beneath your feet
• Use it to clear tarot or ritual tools
• Journal with prompts like:
  • What is ready to be cleared?
  • What ancestral pattern am I releasing?
  • What truth can no longer stay buried?

Lunar eclipses are moments of reckoning.
Black kyanite does not flinch in the face of truth.

Stay grounded. Stay curious.
And trust the magic beneath your feet. 🖤🌑

I’m sharing a special crossover episode where I was a guest on Ghost Gossip! We get into the surprisingly natural overlap between crystals and the paranormal — protection, intuition, energy hygiene — plus the very real experience of owning your “weird” when the world wants you to stay quiet and palatable.

In this episode, we cover:

• How I went from orthopedic PA by day to mystic-by-night (and why celestite was my turning point)
• Why crystals + the paranormal world overlap: intuition, sensitivity, and protection
• Beginner-friendly crystal advice: how to choose stones without overthinking it
• Favorite crystals we chat about: emerald, dioptase, celestite, amethyst, labradorite, and obsidian
• Crystal cleansing that doesn’t require a full-moon scavenger hunt: smoke + sound cleansing (bells, incense, palo santo)
• What to watch for when buying crystals online (and why I avoid big-box marketplaces)
• Being a professional and a witchy/ghosty person — and why you don’t have to split yourself into “acceptable” pieces

Amber isn’t technically a stone — it’s fossilized tree resin, hardened sunlight, and ancient memory preserved in gold.

In this episode of The Crystal Library, Ashleigh explores the science, mythology, and energetic properties of amber — from Baltic trade routes and Dominican fluorescence to Chinese lore that says the souls of tigers live on within it.

This episode is also a quiet tribute to her mom, Amber, whose birthday falls on February 23 — honoring themes of warmth, protection, ancestral healing, and the way love persists across time.

Inside this episode:

• What amber actually is (and why it’s not a mineral)
• Where it’s found around the world
• Amber in folklore and Chinese mythology
• Its connections to Leo and Aquarius
• Solar plexus + crown chakra activation
• Past-life and intergenerational healing work
• Why amber teething necklaces are used — and what science actually says
• A reflection on healing family stories and alchemizing inherited patterns

Amber reminds us: protection doesn’t always look like armor. Sometimes it looks like warmth.

Stay curious. Stay protected. Stay luminous.
