overview

Amethyst is violet quartz. Its Greek name means 'not drunk,' and it was carried against intoxication. 777 places it on both Chesed and Jupiter's path, and Agrippa gives it to Mars. In modern practice it is the great stone of spiritual protection, clear dreams, and sobriety.

Working with it

Place amethyst under your pillow or on the nightstand for clear dreams. On a Thursday, hold it while meditating on a decision and ask for the wise choice rather than the easy one. Cleanse it in moonlight rather than sunlight, which fades its color.
