That resonates. Apparently a bundle of these had been sitting in the back of this (very large) crystal store for 5 years and the guy had “just tumbled them” - and I was first to pick through the lot of them! He said it was a good stone for grounding. :)
When I started looking into the stone’s meaning online I felt even more resonance, and that feeling of ”of course!”
According to internet sources, spiderweb jasper (also called “net jasper”) brings...

I like reading about these meanings the stone has collected. It feels resonant and also helps imbue it with that power, I think, because my consciousness thinks it - and I believe I feel it even more so.
Mine is actually more green and red than the typical grey and black that seems to be common according to online sources. Who really knows, but I like it. I think that’s what matters!

I like to ground with this stone, often placing it on my chest. I tend to feel calm and centered with it there.
I have carried this stone around in my purse for a couple of months now. It is a convenient size and shape not much larger that a one-dollar coin (which I think is about what it cost me). I’m often attracted to stones that have smooth and rough edges. This one has both and fits nicely in the palm of my hand.
I like to bring it out when I want to meditate and feel grounded.
Do you have any stones or pocket pieces you like to carry or connect with?
I have a little bag of stones and precious little things. I may share more in the future :) I find it’s a good way to connect and remember why I have the thing.
