Amethyst Clusters - Light Purple Druze Crystals - Amethyst is a
popular purple-colored variety of quartz that contains manganese. It is the
manganese that produces Amethyst's purple color, while the iron content in the stone
determines the relative darkness of the purple.
Amethyst usually grows in geodes - hollow rocks with crystal-filled interiors. The
surface of the interior of the geode is called “Druze,” which is a natural layer
of crystals formed on the crust of a mineral. From the outside, Amethyst geodes
often look like ordinary rocks, but break them open and you’ll find a wonderland of
crystals.
These Natural Amethyst Clusters are irregular-shaped pieces of the Druze found when geodes
are broken open, and came from a mine in Brazil. Most pieces contain the entire
thickness of the geode, from the outer rim to the beautiful Amethyst Druze crystals
inside. They sit relatively flat, and thus make great Amethyst specimens for
display.
Amethyst is very powerful and protective, and is a first choice of many metaphysicians.
Amethyst was used in ancient times to recover from both physical addictions as well as
addictive relationships, and became know as the "stone of sobriety." A natural
stress reliever, Amethyst can encourage inner strength.
The strong healing powers of Amethyst can transmute lower vibrations to higher
frequencies, transforming negative energy to love energy.
