WHAT IS THE MEANING OF AMETHYST?

Amethyst is one of the first healing gems that most people meet on their crystal journey! Often, this has a profound effect on them and turns into a life-long love for the glistening gem, and all crystals in general.

This stone has the capacity to aid you through difficult transitions in life that can feel really lonely. In reality, to get through these situations also takes a lot of in-depth hard work, but this beautiful and serene crystal can provide a safe foothold to start, and a calming frequency to ground yourself with.

Not a lot of people will go with you into the depths of a crisis, but this crystal is always approachable, willing, and shines sweetly even in the dark depths of uncertain times. It’s nice to have a friend with you in those times. A crystal can be that friend if you want them to be.

WHAT ARE THE POTENTIAL BENEFITS OF AMETHYST? 

In the same vein as the origin of the name ‘Amethyst’ being ancient Greek for “not intoxicated,” this crystal is known as a healing stone with the capacity to aid in addictions, whatever they may be. They may act as a kind of a balancing mediator; a calming sobriety stone to relieve inflammation so that you can make the decisions you need to in order to live the life that you want to.

It is also important to understand that having an Amethyst under your pillow won’t automatically kick your smoking habit, but it can provide a high-vibe influence and calmness that may assist you in your self-healing in a way you haven’t been able to do before. Amethyst crystal is also associated with the respiratory system, so it might actually be a better idea (to put one under your pillow) than you think!

The velvety, violet allure of this mineral draws you in so completely, almost as if you were in a trance. The bluish-purple tone is often richly layered with depth, but it can also manifest as a much paler crystal; the Vera Cruz Amethyst is a pale angelic lavender with a very high-vibration that has a reputation for being an amazing stone for meditation.

This crystal can feel like a protective light shield around one’s aura that helps enhance your spiritual life and guards against psychic as well as panic attacks. This gemstone can act as a catalyst to many spiritual and intuitive experiences, is an excellent seer stone, and has been recognized as a channeler’s stone. Chevron Amethyst may prove to be very useful to you if that is what you are seeking.

Birthstone

IS AMETHYST A BIRTHSTONE?

Amethyst crystal is the birthstone for February. The vibration is very calming and mystical, which is very fitting for dreamy and empathic Pisces! The sign of Pisces is particularly sensitive and sometimes creating the boundaries that define us from the rest of the outside world can be very difficult for them.

Pisces energy is like a sponge-often soaking up everything around them. As such, people who pick up energies can often suffer from anxiety or other temperamental ailments. Amethyst is such an amazing stone for emotional cleansing and can help Pisces and other sensitive people feel good about creating safe boundaries in their life. 

This versatile gemstone is also known to help protect the wearer from geopathic stress and the energies of dis-ease.

Colors

WHAT COLORS CAN AMETHYST APPEAR AS?

Amethyst can occur in a sparkling array of purples, orchids, incandescent mauve-lavenders, bluish-violets and even black crystals. This dazzling crystal can transform into even more colors when subjected to extreme conditions; heat-treating an amethyst from a specific mine deposit in Minas Gervais to a balmy 500 degrees C produces the yellowish-green shining crystal that is known as Prasiolite

It is possible to turn a sample that has changed color in this manner back to purple by subjecting it to x-rays! Humans have figured out how to effectively grow amethyst crystal clusters in hydro-thermal enclaves that are near-identical to natural forms. This procedure also removes any of the danger from the mining process making it an ethical alternative!
