With its high vibration and energies of serenity and tranquillity, amethyst is a stone that should be in everyone’s collection. Amethyst is a variety of quartz that is found almost globally, renowned for its shades of purple ranging from the most subtle, pale lavender to the deepest royal violet. The purple tones of this gem are created by manganese, and the varying richness of the colour comes from how much iron is within its matrix. There is evidence of amethyst’s being used in rudimentary Neolithic  jewellery across Europe, dating back as far as 25,000 years ago.

Where to use or place on body for healing

Amethyst is mainly associated with the Crown Chakra, and when placed on this energy center, it brings a sense of unity and connection with Source, hastens spiritual evolution, and helps quiet your thoughts so that you can enter deeper states of meditation. It also helps you base any decisions you make on spiritual guidance rather than emotional reactions. Placed on the Third Eye Chakra, it clears the way for developing psychic insight and intuitive abilities. In general, amethyst can be gridded around the body to clear the auric field of any negative attachments, or throughout your sacred space to create a serene bubble of peace and protection. Amethyst in the bedroom promotes peaceful sleep.
