Amethyst Crystals

 

Introduction & Origin
Amethyst is a striking violet-to-deep-purple crystal known for its calming and protective properties. Mined in countries like Brazil, Uruguay and Zambia, Amethyst has been prized since ancient times - the Greeks even believed it could guard against intoxication. Its colour comes from iron and aluminium impurities in quartz, transformed by natural irradiation.

 

Appearance & Symbolism
Its rich purple shades make Amethyst one of the most recognisable crystals. It symbolises peace, protection and spiritual growth. Often associated with the crown chakra, Amethyst is thought to enhance intuition and bring clarity of thought.

 

Emotional & Wellbeing Associations
Amethyst is believed to calm the mind, ease anxiety and support restful sleep. Many use it as a protective talisman against negative energy. It’s also said to inspire creativity and aid in decision-making, making it popular for workspaces and meditation corners.

 

How to Use in Your Space or Practice
Place Amethyst on your bedside table to encourage deep sleep and prevent nightmares. Position a larger cluster in your living room or workspace to create a calming environment. Meditating with Amethyst can help deepen spiritual awareness and intuition.
