Amethyst Clusters - Dark Purple Druze Crystals - SPECIMENS -
These are Jumbo-sized Deep Purple Amethyst Druze Specimens from Brazil. Unusually
large in size, and in great condition, these Natural Amethyst Clusters are
irregular-shaped pieces of the Amethyst Druze found inside geodes.
Amethyst is a popular variety of quartz that contains manganese, which produces Amethyst's
purple color. The iron content in the Amethyst determines the relative darkness of
the purple.
Amethyst usually grows in geodes, which are hollow rocks with crystal-filled interiors.
The surface of the interior is called Druze, which is a term used to describe a natural
layer of crystals formed on the crust of a mineral. From the outside, Amethyst
geodes often look like ordinary rocks, but inside they contain a wonderland of crystals.
Popular metaphysically, Amethyst is very powerful and protective. Known as the
"stone of sobriety," Amethyst was used in ancient times to recover from both
physical addictions as well as addictive relationships. Amethyst can encourage inner
strength and relieve stress.
The strong healing powers of Amethyst can transmute lower vibrations to higher
frequencies, transforming negative energy to love energy. Dark Purple Amethyst
connects the physical plane with higher realm, making it a good choice when working with
the Third Eye Chakra. Amethyst provides a wonderful peaceful energy for meditations,
and helps with developing intuition and psychic abilities.
