Jet and the Magic of What Remains

Big Crystal Energy Podcast - Crystals, Glamour, and... ·

2026/10/06

Jet is more than just another black protection stone. In this episode of The Crystal Library, Ashleigh returns to a stone she first covered briefly last September and gives it the deeper exploration it deserves. Jet is an organic mineraloid formed from ancient wood, transformed underground over millions of years into a lightweight black material that humans have carved, worn, buried with the dead, and used as protection for centuries. This episode explores the geology and formation of jet, ho...

2026/10/02

We are officially stepping into the Season of the Witch, and to take us a little deeper into spooky season, I’m bringing one of my favorite conversations back from the Big Crystal Energy archives. So many new listeners have found the podcast since this episode originally aired, and this conversation with John Kozik of the Salem Witch Board Museum was simply too good to leave buried. John is a historian, collector, and founding member of the Talking Board Historical Society whose fascination w...

What does it mean to stay grounded when everything around you feels like it is shifting? In this episode of The Crystal Library, Ashleigh explores aragonite, a stone associated with grounding, patience, emotional balance, surrender, and staying connected to your center during periods of change. Aragonite is especially known for its striking starburst formations, with crystal points radiating outward in every direction from one central core. That structure becomes the perfect metaphor for this...

Big Crystal Energy Podcast - Crystals, Glamour, and... ·

2026/09/25

Life has been lifing lately… so today’s episode is a little different. I’m sitting down for an impromptu Big Crystal Energy life update to share some of what’s been happening behind the scenes—the good, the stressful, the completely chaotic, and, of course, the witchy. I’m talking about burnout, family life, the absolute saga happening at our historic property in Augusta, Georgia (including our first official squatter 😬), and why I’m realizing that something has to give when it comes to how

Apache Tear: Grief, Shadow Work & the Stone I Chose...

Big Crystal Energy Podcast - Crystals, Glamour, and... ·

2026/09/22

Apache Tear was one of the very first stones I ever chose as a child, long before I knew anything about crystal meanings, shadow work, or the symbolism this little piece of volcanic glass would eventually carry for me. I found it while visiting a witchy shop in Omaha, Nebraska with my dad during a complicated period of my childhood. My parents were divorced, I was moving back and forth between two homes, and as an only child I often found myself caught in the middle of adult emotions and situ...

Mabon: Harvest, Balance & the Final Turn of the Wheel

Big Crystal Energy Podcast - Crystals, Glamour, and... ·

2026/09/18

Mabon marks the Autumn Equinox, a threshold between light and darkness, abundance and release, growth and the quieter season ahead. For me, it also marks the final episode in my Wheel of the Year series. In this episode of Big Crystal Energy, I’m exploring the history and meaning of Mabon, including why the name itself is much more modern than many people realize. I talk about Mabon as the second harvest, the symbolism of the Autumn Equinox, and what this season can teach us about gratitude, ...

Magnetite: What Are You Actually Attracting?

Big Crystal Energy Podcast - Crystals, Glamour, and... ·

2026/09/15

This week inside The Crystal Library, we’re going deep into magnetite and lodestone, a stone whose actual physical properties are every bit as fascinating as its magical associations. Magnetite is one of the most naturally magnetic minerals on Earth, and naturally magnetized pieces are known as lodestones. Long before humans understood magnetic fields, people were already fascinated by this strange dark stone that could pull iron toward itself without ever touching it. In this episode, Ashlei...

2026/09/11

What if becoming a witch isn’t about becoming someone new—but finally giving yourself permission to become who you’ve always been? This week on Big Crystal Energy, I’m joined by Adrienna Elcome, aka the Violet Wiitch—a tarot reader, witchcraft teacher, photographer, shadow worker, and creator of Witch School. Adrienna and I originally crossed paths through Angelica Cresci’s Glamour Magic course, and in this conversation we get into what it actually looks like to live your witchcraft—not just ...

Mystical Merlinite: The Stone Between Worlds

Big Crystal Energy Podcast - Crystals, Glamour, and... ·

2026/09/08

What happens when a stone seems to exist between two worlds? In this episode of The Crystal Library, we’re exploring Mystical Merlinite, also known as Indigo Gabbro—a dark, mottled igneous rock surrounded by modern metaphysical associations with intuition, divination, shadow work, past lives, spirit communication, and the unseen. We begin with the geology of Indigo Gabbro and the surprisingly beautiful story of a rock that forms slowly beneath the Earth’s surface, crystallizing in darkness ov...

Big Crystal Energy Podcast - Crystals, Glamour, and... ·

2026/09/04

September always feels like a threshold for me. It’s the beginning of my favorite part of the year, the point where I start feeling more like myself again, and where style, scent, crystals, and ritual all begin to take on a little more meaning. In this solo episode, I’m exploring the idea of liminality and how certain seasons or transitions can help us reconnect with parts of ourselves that may feel quieter at other times of the year. For me, autumn is that season. I’m also talking about glam...

2026/09/01

What happens when your logic, intuition, words, and actions finally begin moving in the same direction? In this episode of The Crystal Library, we explore sodalite—a deep blue stone commonly associated with truth, communication, intuition, and conscious awareness. We begin with the science of sodalite, including its mineral structure, its connection to lapis lazuli, and the fascinating sodalite variety known as hackmanite, which can actually change color in response to light. From there, we m...

Not Everyone Is Going to Cheer for You—Do It Anyway

2026/08/28

Coming home from the Powerhouse Women Conference, I had absolutely nothing prepared for this week’s episode. And maybe that was exactly the point. Instead of forcing myself to immediately jump back into researching, recording, creating, and checking things off my list, I let myself actually be present for the experience. And when I got home, I sat down behind the microphone without a script, without an outline, and without really knowing where this conversation was going to go. What came out ...

What if everything you think you know about fairies is only a tiny—and very modern—piece of the story? In this episode of Big Crystal Energy, I’m joined by Brandon Becker of Inside the Hollow Hills for a fascinating deep dive into Faery Craft, the Good People, and the ancient relationship between humans and the beings of the Otherworld. Brandon’s path into this work began with an interest in megaliths, archaeoastronomy, and ancient sites across Ireland and the British Isles. But as he dug dee...

Smithsonite and the Boundaries We Draw for Ourselves

Big Crystal Energy Podcast - Crystals, Glamour, and... ·

2026/08/18

For almost two hundred years, smithsonite didn't have a name of its own. It was lumped together with a completely different mineral, hemimorphite, under the folk name "calamine" — used by the Romans to make brass, by Tang Dynasty artisans to smelt coins, and by medieval physicians to treat skin conditions, all without anyone realizing they were handling two different substances. In this episode, we trace how smithsonite finally got its own identity — and how many other systems still can't agr...

Have you ever felt like your career became your entire identity? This week on Big Crystal Energy, I'm joined by fellow physician assistant, Reiki Master, medium, and witch Calla for a conversation that feels like sitting down with a friend who just gets it. As two healthcare providers who also embrace spirituality, we talk about what it means to walk the line between science and magic, why burnout is so common in medicine, and how reconnecting with our spiritual practices helped us rediscover...

Most people know hematite as the crystal for grounding—but what if that's only the surface? In this episode of The Crystal Library, we're looking beyond hematite's polished, metallic exterior to uncover a history written in blood-red pigment, ancient cave art, legal talismans, protective magic, and one of the oldest relationships humans have ever had with a mineral. You'll discover why hematite has been used for thousands of years as a symbol of protection, why archaeologists continue to deba...

What if the fears holding you back aren't even yours? In this episode of Big Crystal Energy, I'm joined by crystal healer, teacher, and author Krista Mitchell for a fascinating conversation about crystal consciousness, shadow work, ancestral healing, and why working with crystals goes so much deeper than memorizing metaphysical properties. Krista shares how a single piece of selenite completely changed the course of her life, why she believes crystals are conscious allies rather than passive ...

Danburite and the Mystery of Higher Consciousness

Danburite doesn't have the ancient mythology of amethyst or the centuries-long history of quartz—but what if that makes it even more fascinating? In this episode of The Crystal Library, we're exploring one of the most intriguing stones I've researched so far. While working through my Akashic Crystal Healing certification, I kept noticing something unusual about Danburite: no matter which respected crystal author I turned to, they were all describing the same core experience in remarkably diff...

Flower Agate is often described as a crystal of peace, growth, and gentle transformation—but what if we've been telling the wrong story? In this episode of The Crystal Library, we're taking a closer look at one of the most beloved modern crystals and uncovering the fascinating geology behind its signature "flowers." Along the way, we investigate the claim that Flower Agate was "discovered in 2018," examine how information spreads through the crystal community, and explore the difference betwe...
