    Amethyst Association:

    Amethyst and Chakra Connection:

    Amethyst stimulates the Third Eye and Crown Chakras.

    The purple crystal treats the imbalances of the Third Eye Chakra, so your thoughts and internal communications are healthy and vibrant. We cannot reach higher consciousness without alignment of the Third Eye Chakra.  When this chakra is blocked it also can impact the flow of energy to the lower chakras. When this chakra is balanced, you may experience that new ideas, creativity and visions seem to just come to you without strenuous effort. 

    Amethyst healing properties also consist of balancing the Crown Chakra, which controls how you think and respond to the world around you. When the Crown Chakra is balanced, we are better able to manage stress and unperturbed by roadblocks, hiccups, or challenges as we understand that these moments are essential for our personal development in life. Mind, body, and spirit are more connected. We become less reactive to life. We have more control over the events manifesting in our realities as we become master of our own thoughts and emotions.
