Amethyst Crystal (Tumbled)

Amethyst is a stunning purple quartz revered for its deep spiritual and healing properties. It’s closely linked to the third eye chakra, which governs intuition, and the crown chakra, the center of our connection to the universe.

Historically, Amethyst has been treasured across cultures and religions. Catholic bishops wore amethyst rings for protection against mystical intoxication, while Saint Valentine’s ring bore an image of Cupid carved in Amethyst. In Christian symbolism, its rich purple hue reflected Christ’s sacrifice.

Amethyst has been credited with controlling negative thoughts, enhancing intelligence, and sharpening business acumen. Travelers wore it for protection from treachery, soldiers carried it for victory and safety, and hunters sought its aid in capturing prey. It was also seen as a powerful shield against witchcraft and black magic, and a guardian against illness.

A royal stone with a calming energy, Amethyst continues to be cherished for its ability to protect, heal, and inspire spiritual growth.
