It is a very spiritual stone and is a stone of peace. When held in your receptive hand ( left hand if you are right handed and right if you are left handed ) an Amethyst's peaceful vibrations aid in soothing, de-stressing and calming - especially helpful after a stress filled day. Or wear Amethyst next to your skin to keep you calm in stressful situations. When placed beneath the pillow Amethyst is said to be able to ward off nightmares and insomnia. It aids peaceful sleep and pleasant dreams - which can sometimes be prophetic. Amethyst inspires the healing of all organs and brings about mental peace and a state of relaxation. Ancients thought it was a cure for drunkenness, perhaps because its name comes from the Greek word meaning 'not drunken'. Those who wore it thought they could drink as much as they liked without suffering from any ill effects! It is also said to lose its brightness in the presence of poison and it pales if the wearer is ill. Amethyst is a powerful amulet for travellers. When worn it protects against thieves, harm, danger and sickness. It gives courage to the wearer. It is used in meditation, for guidance and help, it brings clear thoughts and a calm mind. Amethyst is also used to increase psychic awareness. Sometimes a piece of Amethyst is kept with Tarot cards, Rune stones or I Ching coins - to heighten their inner energies. It is worn during divination as it is also a stone of wisdom and helps with the interpretation of the information coming through the psychic mind. Amethyst is a stone of pure love, it is beautiful as well as spiritual and it has no negative side effects. It is, therefore, a ' must ' for anyone's crystal collection!
