One of the most gorgeous, healing, protective + all round incredible crystals we have the pleasure of seeing, feeling + loving! I’ve put together some info on this wonderful crystal to help you get to know it better.
What can we use amethyst for? 💜
Psychic Protection
Psychic Development + Enhancement
Communication aide
Anxiety Relief
Transformative Change
Tranquility
Memory
Focus
Chakra - Third Eye 👁
So all crystals can be used for all chakras where relevant, but each will associate most strongly with one or two. Amethyst is super connected to the Ajna, the Third Eye, which is our energy centre of intuition / insight.
Try a mediation 👇
🕉 turn on some music that uplifts you
🕉 lay down, balancing amethyst on the 3rd eye (in between the eyebrows)
🕉 close the eyes to settle in
🕉 spend the meditation focusing on the third eye and amethyst, bringing your attention back to that spot when the mind begins to wander
… see if you feel any twitches, twinges, images, colours etc… might be time for spiritual development class! 😉
Psychic protection
I’ve always loved amethyst. I tend to use it whenever I’m giving an intuitive reading or working spirituality, in any capacity. By having it close, it helps me focus on the messages I’m communicating and adds an extra layer of psychic protection.
Amethyst works by protecting your energy field and drawing in divine energy. It can be super helpful to wear around people who tend to drain your energy (energy vampires!). Next time you’re caught chatting with that friend who’s constantly complaining about eeeevvvveeeeryything!, have a piece of amethyst in your pocket and roll it around in your hand as they’re rabbiting on. It will stop them being able to plug into you + drain your energy! 🔌

Anxiety relief
Amethyst also helps with protection from negative thought patterns and negative energies. It’s one of my top 5 anxiety relief recommendations.

A little history
Amethyst has been revered throughout history. From the ancient Egyptians wearing it in jewellery, to the medieval European soldiers who wore amethyst amulets as protection on the battlefield.
Mined mainly in Brazil and Uruguay, it can also be found in Bolivia, Zambia, Thunder Bay and Rio Grande do Sul amongst others.
I hope this article revealed more about the beauty of amethyst. It’s truly a staple in any crystal lover’s collection.
Namaste, xo
