One of my favourite stones,  it is both mystical and spiritual.  Helps to develop Third Eye and activates the psychic center.  I put one under the pillow for a good night's sleep and enhancing my dreams.   It is also a great meditation stone hastening the meditator's state of mind to go into the Alpha level.  

The favourite formations:  in single or double terminations,  in clusters and in geode.  The richer the purple the better quality is the stone.   For Feng-shui,  I recommend placing a geode facing the main entrance,  preferable at the left hand corner or right hand corner of the living room diagonally opposite the entrance as you face inward from outside the house.  These are two wealth positions in order of priority to attract the energy of wealth.  Besides,  the evenly emanated radiations of the multiple terminations in the geode also helps to keep at bay any negative vibrations from entering the house.    You can actually feel the higher frequency vibrations from the doorway with your palms.  Geode formation also aids in fertility and a smaller stones can be placed in bedroom for this purpose.

An amethyst generator in a study room can help a child to concentrate in his study and protect his eye sights from deteriorating. 

The amethyst can be worn by those suffering from cancer,  as its higher vibrations are offensive to the lower vibration cancerous cells.  It is said that cancerous cells mimic the embroynic reproductive cells of our body deceiving the brain to send nourishing energy to them.  I prefer another purple stone - the Sugilite - for this healing purpose; it   has manganese inclusions giving it a grounding element.   (Some people who find amethyst too flighty may find Sugilite a better substitution because of its grounding ability.)  

It is supposed to counter alcoholism,  from the days of the Roman Empire where drinking chalice were said to made from amethyst.  Can leave tumbled amethyst stones overnight in clean water and drink as elixir.   I used to have them in my water filter compartment.   One of my favourite rings is a faceted cut amethyst.

Another related stone is Ametrine,  a hybrid  of amethyst and citrine.  It gives a powerful combination of  the will centre (Solar Plexus)  and the psychic centre  (Third Eye).  Both a wealth attracting and protective stone best worn as a pendant.  I like the one fashions into a star of david formation which is supposed to enhance the power of the stone further. 

Another rare formation of amethyst is the rutiliated ones, with fine hair-like strains in the stone.  It is supposed to provide the stone with an electric zap,  and like all rutiliated stones it is supposed to attract romance (Cupid arrows) and good for unmarried individuals.

Amethyst can be found in most parts of the world but the better quality stones are from Uruguay and Brazil.

There is an interesting variety of amethyst and I can recall the few I have come across in my collection of these stones.
 
Geode Amethyst -  normally exist in an oval egg shape and commercially available in halves,  which appears like a miniature cave.   It is a good fengshui attracting stone when placed in the wealth corner of the house.  Placing it in front of the main entrance would prevent negative energies from intruding into the house.  A pair adorn my altar.
 
Ametrine -  A combination of Amethyst and Citrine.  It integrates the psychic Third Eye Chakra and the Mental Solar Plexus Chakra,  giving you insight and mental clarity as you develop your psychic faculties.  It is a wealth attacting stone when adorn as a jewellery and offers effective protection against negative energies. I used to have it in the formation of a Star Of David pendant.
 
Double Termination Amethyst:  -  Said to be from Vera Cruz and South Africa,  the naturally formed double termination has overpowering vibrations and immediately leads us into the meditative state.  This variety normally has paler purple colour.  To me,  it not only affect the third eye chakra but also the throat and in particular the crown almost instantaneously as I hold it in my receptive hand.  I own a few pieces which I  strung with silver metal wires and wear them occasionally.
 
Other varieties of amethyst - 
 
Dog Tooth Amethyst:  Stone shaped like a tooth with dense purple and white cement colour.  Vibrations are heavier and provides  good grounding qualities besides uplifting our 3rd eye energies so that we do not get too space out.
 
Elestial Amethyst:  Already elestial,  normally in smoky variation and some come with fossilised water, by itself is a mysterious stone,  a storage house of ancient knowledge.  I suppose the amethyst inclusion would give it a more spiritual enhancement.
 
Chevron Amethyst:  Very beautiful deep and dark purple stone.
 
Rutiliated Amethyst .  Again,  a rare variety,  and the rutiliated needles are supposed to provide the amethyst with the electrical zap to make the vibrations more lively and vibrant.
 
Once a mother came and consulted me about her 10 year old son whom I suspected could be an Indigo child.  The boy has overall refined energy and loves to place his two hands in a prayer's gesture and pay respects to all  Buddha and Boddhisattvas whenever he comes across their statues.   The mother showed me an amethyst bracelet she gave to her son to wear and complained that the stones became more red in appearance instead of the purplish colour when she originally bought it.  I supposed that being spiritual,  the boy must have absorbed more of the blue colour in the amethyst stones (purple being a combination of the colours of blue and red),  leaving  behind more of the red colours which make the stones look more red.   But subsequently I pondered over this encounter and asked myself the question why not the reverse as the boy should have absorbed more of the red for grounding leaving behind more of the blue in the stone?  Perhaps,  other members may have a story or two to tell about their amethyst....^^

*Pagan Daily Devotionals*

*Amethyst*



Amethyst is one of the more popular stones used for magickal purposes. I know
it's one of my own favourites. Amethyst is a purple form of quartz, and ranges
from shades of light lavender to deep purple.

For ritual uses, amethyst is associated with psychic abilities, meditation,
sleep, peace and spirituality. Small pieces of amethyst work well in herbal
dream pillows. Amethyst is sometimes associated with water, and sometimes with
air.

Ancient folklore claims that amethyst can cure poisons and drunkenness
