Amethyst is a beautiful semi-precious stone that you often see in jewellery because its stunning purple tones complement other colours perfectly, such as gold. You can’t really get more regal than purple and gold, after all!
As well as being lovely to look at, however, amethyst – as a member of the quartz family – is said to have many interesting qualities that prove to be a strong draw for crystal enthusiasts all over the world.
Amethyst crystals are often used to help promote healing in the mind and body, with many ayurvedic and natural health practitioners turning to the stones for their possible health benefits.
It’s thought, for example, that the stones can help enhance the immune system, improve the appearance of the skin, reduce headaches and promote digestive health.
As for mental health, many believe that amethysts can help promote a sense of calmness and serenity, using them to see if they can reduce anxiety levels and pain perception.
Bringing more amethyst into your life needn’t be difficult and it can be something as simple as carrying a beautiful little stone around with you in your pocket. Or you can find amethyst in bracelets, rings, necklaces and all sorts of other unique accessories, making it very easy indeed to remain close to your new favourite stone.
Amethyst is also a popular choice for interior designers and home stylists as well, with its rich and jewel-like tones working well in a variety of rooms. For something a little different, what about positioning some gorgeous purple geodes in the living room or bedroom? The perfect finishing touch in any room!
