What Are Amethyst Stones?

Amethyst is a member of the quartz family, with colors ranging from rosy pinks to deep purples. The stone’s name comes from the Greek word, “amethusos,” which means “not drunk.” In Ancient Greece, Amethyst was used for preventing intoxication and calming violent emotions. Today, Amethyst is one of the most powerful and versatile stones, a necessity for any crystal collector not only for its beauty but also for its wide variety of uses. It is available in a wide variety of natural and man-made shapes, including clusters, points, and discs. Amethyst is the perfect crystal for connecting you to divine energy. 

Amethyst Properties For Health

Amethyst has been used to improve circulation and reduce inflammation, providing relief in cases of arthritis and asthma. The Ancient Greeks used Amethyst stones to guard against overindulgence in alcohol, and these properties make them useful for those battling addiction. This calming, gentle stone also helps ease anxiety and stress, which results in less fatigue. These peaceful properties also relieve insomnia.  

Metaphysical Benefits Of Amethyst

Amethyst provides a connection to the divine and gives access to the spiritual realm. Amethyst stones support dream recall and analysis. This spiritual clarity also assists with mental clarity, and Amethyst helps its users find their life’s path and purpose. Amethyst stones encourage happiness, courage, and peace by channeling divine love.                                                                                          

What Is The Spiritual Significance Of Amethyst?

Amethyst is associated with Third Eye and Crown Chakras, the element of Wind, and the astrological signs of Pisces, Virgo, Aquarius, and Capricorn. Amethyst is a useful tool for divination; it can be used to boost a ritual or as a medium for scrying. Amethyst stones are also powerful for protection. Amethyst’s calming qualities and connection to the spiritual realm assist those passing on to reach the end of their mortal journey with peace and gratitude. 

How To Use Amethyst Crystals

Use as a pendant or place in contact with skin. Amethyst is especially useful in meditation to help you achieve calm and clarity. Place Amethyst stones over the Third Eye to encourage psychic abilities. Due to their protective properties, keeping Amethyst crystals by the front door of your home will also protect it from negative energy and theft. Amethyst can also be used to clear other crystals. Simply place your crystals on top of an Amethyst cluster for twenty-four hours to cleanse them.

Since Amethyst is a calming stone it's a powerful stone to keep by your bed or in a office where the energy is chaotic.

While Amethyst can clear other crystals, it does not clear itself. Crystals give off energy, and, just like humans, they need to rest and recharge, or they will not work as well. There are many different ways to clear Amethyst. You can surround it with a ring of salt or leave it to clear and charge in the moonlight. Using sound frequencies is our favorite way.  Full moons are especially powerful, and you can use them as a reminder to clear your crystals. Remember to clear your Amethyst at least once a month. If you are working with your Amethyst stones very regularly, clear them more often. 

Amethyst and The Archangels 

Use Amethyst to invoke Archangel Michael and allow the divine wisdom of the past, present, and future assist you. Amethyst is one of the most documented and passed down stones of the centuries. A stone to assist the psychics, the healers, the empaths and the magical since the beginning of time. Amethyst and Archangel Michael lovingly remind you that you are safe to venture within and offer you protection from any energy that does not serve your highest potential timeline. The ancestors speak of Amethyst’s abilities to ward off evil and dispel psychic attacks, the same power that is also present in Archangel Michael’s sword. How deep would you dive within if you knew you were always safe? 

Use Amethyst to invoke Archangel Zadkiel and call in the violet flame of transmutation and spiritual alchemy. Amethyst and Archangel Zadkiel bring you a sense of tranquility and peace when you start awakening to your gifts and psychic abilities. There is no need to push, for everything happens in divine timing. Much like Archangel Zadkiel’s twin flame, named Amethyst, tap into the allowance and peace of the here and now and the flow of the moon. The femine aspect of Amethyst reminds us that when we release expectations we are more open and receptive to these divine gifts. Amethyst and Archangel Zadkiel offer you the peace and tranquility to reach new heights and even vaporize any negative conditions or programs that no longer serve you.
