Amethyst, Legendary Healing

Amethyst has been sought for centuries for it's deep purple color and ability to soothe both the mind, body and spirit. Historically amethyst has been worth as much as diamonds to some peoples. Traditionally it is the birthstone of February and has always been associated with this month. Amethyst is a type of quartz and grows much the same, in clusters, and geodes, and gets it's purple color from the inclusion of manganese in the quartz.

In crystal healing amethyst probably has the most uses of any stone. It is believed to help with intoxication and sobriety, as well as being able to clear the mind. It can be mixed in an elixir of water and consumed to give the effects of the stone internally. I have found that amethyst helps with migraines, as well as to help you meditate. This is a great all around healing stone, as well as one of the most beautiful types of stones that exist.

Lots of love and light to you all!
