Amethyst Crystal

Amethyst is a beautiful purple variety of quartz, traditionally associated with peace, protection, intuition and spiritual awareness. Its name comes from the Greek amethystos, meaning “not intoxicated”, reflecting the ancient belief that it helped promote a clear and balanced mind.

It is commonly associated with:

🧘 Calm & relaxation — often used as a symbol of tranquillity and emotional balance.

🛡️ Protection — in crystal traditions, it is believed to help protect against negative energy.

🌙 Sleep & peaceful thoughts — many people keep amethyst beside the bed as part of a relaxing nighttime ritual.

🔮 Intuition & spirituality — strongly connected with meditation, spiritual awareness and the Third Eye and Crown Chakras.
