My recent (September 22) post "A turquoise stone; and suns, moons, and armies with banners" mentions a dream about "a large turquoise-colored crystal ball." Today I was thinking about that again and tried searching for images of one. The word turquoise in the search prompts was bringing up balls made of that stone, though, which is opaque and not really "crystal ball" material, so I changed it to blue green. What I found was a song called "Blue Green Crystal Ball" by someone called Jo Sun (Josephine Genese), published on July 4, 2025, on Apple Music and on July 17 on YouTube -- where, as of this writing, it has racked up a whopping six views.
I haven't been able to decipher most of the lyrics, but it begins like this:
The blue green crystal ball is creative magic
The blue green crystal ball is fantastic
The blue green crystal ball, so dynamic
The blue green crystal ball, so majestic
On July 4, I posted "After baptism," featuring a "blue-green crab." On July 17, I posted "Sly St(all)one," with a comment from Bill about "an 8 inch, 30 pound crystal ball. Bill's comment was about his Rose Stone, but he's mentioned before the possibility of other such stones in different colors.

First I noticed a link between "blue green CRAB" and "blue green CRystal BAll."
Then I noticed that the remaining letters of "crystal ball" are a subset of "Sly Stallone."
Then I saw the whole anagram:
Sly Stallone blue-green crab = one's blue-green crystal ball
The classic "pondering my orb" meme has a blue-green crystal ball. Probably not a great omen that it depicts Saruman.
