Guest guest Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 Dear Rebecca! hopefully you are fine.  here is one article you looking for! Amethyst mental, physical and spiritual healing qualities and uses from Medical Science, New Age, Holistic Healing and history. According to crystal healers and New Age believers, crystal and gem healing is an art and practice, done on a metaphysical level, that is being rediscovered because of the power of the earth's energies that have been absorbed by these sacred objects that, in turn, inherit vital healing powers used to heal many types of ailments. They believe that crystals have physical, spiritual, spirit, crystal energy, tranquility, spiritual awareness, zodiac, powers that can be used for Eastern Medicine treatment of everything from pain, stress, depression, therapy and feeling in the Mind, Spirit and Body. This healing section will provide information on Chakra healing, Psychic healing, Eastern Medicine, purification rituals, of Vedic Astrologers and followers of Atlantis Religion and the occult, paranormal, aromatherapy, metaphysics, and ESP. Amethyst has come to be known as a power crystal with prolific healing powers which can be characterized as purifying, pacifying and transitional. Amethyst has the ability to transform lower energies into higher and acts as a healer at all levels of mind, body and spirit. The healing powers of Amethyst date back as far as the ancient Greeks who believed that Amethyst protected from the intoxicating effects of alcohol. The word " amethyst " is of Geek origin and is translated as- " amethystus " meaning not drunken, or intoxicated ( " -methystos " from " methyein " or intoxicated, " methy " = wine).  Mental Healing Amethyst as a healing stone contains sobering and calming qualities which allow this stone to be commonly associated with peace. Amethyst is known to calm and protect the mind. It soothes those who have engaged in constant rigorous mental activity. It has been deemed " nature's tranquilizer " by many healers because of it's effectiveness in relaxing not only the mind but also the nervous system. Those who wear amethyst jewelry and who have been recommended to wear this stone for healing purposes have done so because of its tranquil qualities and it's ability reduce negativity and alleviate anxiety. Besides being a stone of tranquility and repose, amethyst is also known to enhance mental strength, stability, and vigor. It also is protective in averting the mind from psychic attacks and transforming negative energy in to that of positive and tranquil tenacity. It is also used to bring understanding of all that is transitional, especially death and rebirth. It can provide security and peace of mind (along with understanding) when a loved one is lost or reborn. It is said to also have a relieving effect on stress, grief, depression, emotional despair and ineffective communication. Amethyst and the Chakras Amethyst has identified as a crystal that functions favorably in clearing certain types of blockage and in aligning the Chakras. By transforming energies on all levels amethyst also has the ability to balance and stabilize energies located within certain Chakra areas. Amethyst is related to and found to heal and align ailments of the the 6th and 7th Chakras, which are the Third Eye or Brow (6th) and the Crown (7th). Amethyst aides the 6th Chakra, Third Eye, by opening and heighten awareness, both spiritual and psychic. Its calming qualities help to awaken and ease stress in this area. It helps to also heighten perspective and allows development of strong introspection (inner-self view). Amethyst is used to also increase intuition and psychic development. The Third Eye is the energy center for all levels of consciousness for which amethyst aides the in the transition from a normal state of consciousness to a deeper awareness. The 7th Chakra, or the Crown controls the energies used in any mental activity. Amethyst helps to relieve strain or tension in this area. It is considered a helpful aide in meditation and in the facilitation of psychic visual enhancement. It is used on the Crown to allow past life recall to emerge. It's tranquil sobering effect allows those who are energetic to relax. It also is a cure for insomnia and nightmares and makes the intuition sensitive to understanding that outside of scientific reasoning. Physical Healing Along with the many mental benefits of amethyst healing, there are also many physical afflictions for which the healing powers of amethyst are a remedy. As an elixir (solution as a medicinal substance) amethyst can be used to treat toothaches, skeletal discomforts, posture and other bone and joint-related sicknesses (like arthritis). In elixir form amethyst also cures problems within the stomach and digestive tract, the heart and hearing disorders. It has been known to treat various types of blood disease and balancing blood sugar. Amethyst as a healing stone or crystal is used to treat and heal problems involving the central nervous system. Amethyst is a treatment for both convulsions and neuralgia.  (the above article has been cut from a website i found in google search engine)  --- regards Zia, www.koheqaf.com --- On Thu, 29/1/09, jane doe <divinetrinitywellness wrote: jane doe <divinetrinitywellness Re: [CrystalHW] Amethyst stone Thursday, 29 January, 2009, 1:30 AM --I am still learning and I would like to know the properties for amethyst stones, the yeses and the nos of the stone.

Guest guest Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 Hi , I dont' think there are any " no's " for this awesome stone. It is so absorbing and protecting and elevating and transmuting. It isn't the color of royalty for nothing. I use it in my water, on my body, on an altar and more. The only thing I would suggest is that you don't leave it in the sun for long periods of time as the color will fade...well, I guess the sun must " soak up its rays " . The amethyst geod slice that was lent to me after my huge cancer surgery where I was cut in half to remove a grapefruit size malignant tumor that had eaten my kindey, gave me great insight. It was gifted to my mentor by a buddist monk and I found that when giant spasms of pain following the surgery would hit me that where I had placed this small geod slice would be no pain in that area. This amethyst catapulted me into the world of crystals where the Stone People have assisted me ever since. Well, from before too, only I was too dense to even be aware of them. So, on all amethyst an A+!!!!!, Judy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iron Mangamese gives the stone it's beautiful and rich coolor, but the Sun removes the purple from the stone. I have what UUSE to be a lovely stone. The color went and now the clusters are a dull clear. , " j.karen62 " <j.karen62 wrote: > > Hi Rebecca, > I beleive that Amethyst has Bear Medicine ie. Healer, Teacher, Elders, > Looking Within.

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 Hi Rebecca, The basic composition of Amethyst is, I believe, Quartz and Iron Manganese (which gives it the purple color). I too am a student and a seeker; if anyone reading this can add any other information, please jump right in there. Also, Are Amethysts basically pure with the iron, or has anyone seen Amethysts mixed with other minerals or inclusions? By the way, I'm new here. I am so happy I found this site and this forum. How GRAND it is to FINALLY have somebody I can discuss these topics with. I'm not alone anymore! You're all my new friends, and I know we'll learn a lot from each other!

Iron Mangamese gives the stone it's beautiful and rich coolor, but the Sun removes the purple from the stone. I have what UUSE to be a lovely stone. The color went and now the clusters are a dull clear. That is interesting . I have two small clusters (they fit into my hand) that I have had for a couple of years. I have always set them outside in the sun and moon (to be energized) they haven't faded on me yet. But I did have a red soap stone that faded after being cleaned. Maybe it was something about your stone itself - maybe it's time was finished. I only say this cause one time I had a pink quartz heart that was hugh! It fit in all of the palm of my hand. It did start to shrink and when I mentioned it to the person I purchased it from, they said that it had gone it's course with me. Neither here nor there I will watch out for that occurring. I do appreciate your input! Monday is the full moon - get ready to energize those crysals!!!!! Has anyone else had trouble with any stone amethyst or otherwise fading in the sunlight?

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 The Amethyst and sun-thing is the only one I know about. I'm hoping maybe some of the others here can enlighten us both. A List of these " sun shy " crystals would be so helpful !

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 jane doe <divinetrinitywellness Has anyone else had trouble with any stone amethyst or otherwise fading in the sunlight? Personally I feel crystals are individuals just like humans, some Amethyst will fade and some will not. I have an Amethyst flower that has never been in sunlight that has lightened in color since it came to live with me. I have also had Amethyst that has been in direct sunlight that does not fade. Perhaps it is the locality the the particular Amethyst comes from or perhaps it is just the individual nature of each crystal. Someone post asking about Citrine and Rose quartz possibly fading. Citrine was originally Amethyst that was changed in it's color to Citrine by extreme heat (be it natural or man-made heat)while it is possible that it can fade, I rather doubt it does. Rose quartz on the other hand, can again be similar to Amethyst where some will fade and other not when exposed regularly to direct sunlight. Blessings to your eve all.
