Blessed by the alchemy of iron and quartz, the purple hues of amethyst make it one of the most accessible and recognizable stones. A staple aspect of any mystic or crystal worker’s toolkit, this stone has a rich history of protection and purification properties.

In Greek mythology, Dionysus and Artemis, created amethyst almost accidentally when the Artemis turned a woman into crystal, and Dionysus poured wine onto the newly made statue out of frustration at the loss of his potential paramour. With history and minerals making up amethyst, it is no wonder this crystal is used for connecting with higher self, communicating with angels, deepening spiritual understanding, and supporting sobriety and self-mastery.
