Stunningly beautiful to behold, the deep indigo vibration of Amethyst evokes a feeling of deep reverence.
Beautiful Amethyst is form of crystallized quartz infused with manganese and iron, which gives this crystal its characteristic violet tint. Sometimes Amethyst may contain areas that are totally clear and translucent. A clear facet within an amethyst piece greatly amplifies the ‘consciousness’ of the crystal to promote deeper understanding, humility and awareness.
Of all the minerals, Amethyst evokes mystical awareness through divine reverence. The vibrational frequencies of Amethyst gently impinge upon the senses, stimulating feelings of love, universal understanding and harmony.
Amethyst wonderfully revitalizing and cleansing: this soothing mineral imparts a tranquil vibration that gently balances the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual bodies. In this way, Amethyst gently soothes the nervous system and is especially nurturing where the nervous system has become overwhelmed, due to stress and tension.
The Violet Colour Ray:
The violet colour ray has a balancing effect. This is because the colour violet is a marriage of both red and blue. Red has a deep affinity for the earth and a wonderful grounding effect, whereas blue is expansive opening one to the deeper realms of spirit. Consequently, the violet colour ray emanating from Amethyst activates spiritual awareness and grounds it within the physical experience.
Chakras: Third Eye
On an energy level, Amethyst enlivens the electromagnetic flow of energy in and around the body, helping to clear any areas of stagnant, negative or blocked energy, and rejuvenating the entire energy body (includes all chakras and the aura).
As a stone of high awareness, Amethyst has a particular affinity for the Third Eye Chakra. This beautiful soul stone gently attunes you to your divine presence.
Gently hold an Amethyst crystal to your Third Eye chakra to foster a deeper connection with your inner mind and the realms of spirit.
Visualization: Activating Presence
The exquisite essence of Amethyst activates pure presence within, enabling one to be present, fully and intensely in the moment. The soothing light energy of Amethyst gently stills the mind, as it brings your conscious awareness into the moment that is now. Often our mind dwells on the past, or projects with anticipation into the future, and the precious moment that is the present, our source of deepest knowing, is lost.
Use this simple visualization exercise to activate presence, you may wish to do this whilst holding an Amethyst crystal.
As you hold the ethereal indigo-violet light vibration of Amethyst in your heart, consciously bring your awareness into the moment that is now. Gently close your eyes, as you imagine being surrounded by soft shades of purple. The beautiful colours enfold you like an enchanted mist. Connect with the peaceful energy of your essence.
Take a moment to become aware of your breathing, without trying to force your breath in any way. Breathe into your essence and relax as your breath flows into its own natural rhythm. Notice the ebb and flow of vital life giving oxygen as it fills you with energy and vitality. Imagine that each tiny cell within you is being infused with vital life force energy. You may like to imagine this as a beautiful golden light, a feeling or sensation. Sense your breath carrying you deeper within your essence.
The beautiful energy is bringing you to your still-point ~ that very centred space within you. Journey to the bliss of your still-point. From this sacred space, begin to become aware of your body. How does each part of your body feel? Like a silent observer, watch yourself without analyzing or judging. Simply experience the sensation of life force energy as it flows through your being. You are in divine flow.
As you continue to breathe into your essence, feel your heart and mind opening to the infinite realms of divine inspiration. Attune your awareness to the presence of your radiant Higher Self. Begin to gently affirm the statement “ I am that I am”
Let the rhythm of the words bring you into the centre of the moment that is now. Surrender to the peace and light of your being.
