Podcast Transcript:   Crystal Confab Podcast Introduction: Are you just starting with crystals? Or maybe you have a whole collection but aren't sure how to use them? Join four crystal nerds, healers, workers, and lovers for Crystal Confab, a casual chat about all things crystals.   Ashley Leavy: Hello, and welcome to another episode of crystal confab where I'll be confabbing with my crystal besties about one of our collected favorite stones, as we always say. This week, Adam, Nicholas, Kyle, and myself are chatting about Ruby. I am so excited about this episode. I actually just got this brand new Ruby palm stone from the Tucson Gem and Mineral Show about two months ago, and it has just been sitting on my desk, kinda letting me hold it, drawing some inspiration. So, how is everybody doing today?   Adam Barralet: Really well. And I'm really wrapped up in talking about Ruby. It is one of my favorite crystals, especially when it comes to, like, red crystals. I find it really empowering as well. And I really am enthusiastic to have this conversation because I think sometimes people forget about, like, rubies, sapphires, emeralds, and diamonds because they kind of think of them as being, like, jewelry.   And so there's probably people that have a Ruby and don't realize that the Ruby because it's their engagement ring. It's not a tumbled stone in that way. But in saying that as well, you know, I'd love to know how much you paid for your palm stone. Rubies don't have to be that expensive. They are gonna be more than your amethyst or your rose quartz, but this is a piece I paid, 50 Australian dollars for this type of thing.   It's just a tumbled stone. Obviously, it's of the quality that can be turned into a ring necessarily, but I think it's a real powerful crystal to have in your collection.   Ashley: That's a great point, Adam. And so often when we're talking about, you know, crystals, we're especially in the crystal healing community, we're not necessarily thinking of fine jewelry. We're not necessarily thinking of precious gems. And those precious gems, the Ruby, sapphire, emerald, and diamond, are kind of in a class of their own, and then we have all the semi precious gems kind of that we see more commonly in the type of jewelry that, you know, we've been showing, frankly, in quite a lot of these episodes now. This Ruby palm stone, it's a good size.   It's a very nice quality. It has a good color. I think it was about 55 US dollars, so not too bad.   Adam: That's yeah. I'm very, very jealous of that. It's also interesting when we talk about those top four that we both listed, with Ruby rubies and sapphires, they're actually the same stone, aren't they? They're both corundum, but just different colors, which is quite that really interesting. And, you know, as I was learning throughout the years, I realized, oh, wow.   We always think of sapphires as being blue, but, no. You can get them in orange, yellow, green, white, black, every color. The only color that ain't come in is red. Well, they do, but we just call that a Ruby. And, Nicholas, do you know by any chance why that is?   Is that just through tradition before they realized it's all the same stone?   Nicholas Pearson: Yeah. So, you know, sapphire once used to mean more or less any blue stone, and Ruby literally comes from Latin, Ruby as red red colored gems. So, you know, they got some disambiguation over time. Like, the original sapphire, as we'll talk about another week, is not even remotely geologically related to what we think of as sapphire today. That is another semiprecious gem,
