About Amethyst
Purple Amethyst was highly esteemed throughout the history for its striking beauty and legendary powers to stimulate, and calm, the mind and emotions. The word Amethyst derives from ametusthos, the Greek word meaning “not intoxicated”. This is because they believed Amethyst stopped one from becoming too intoxicated and prevented hangovers. Today, it is thought to have healing energies and is associated with the Third Eye and Crown Chakras. It is used to enhance meditative states and for energy healing. In ancient cultures, amethyst was connected to the divine.
