Raw Amethyst

Raw Amethyst is a crystal that is often referred to as The Master Healer. This beautiful universally well-known royal stone has been celebrated since ancient times, most notably by the ancient Egyptians, and was mentioned in the Book of Exodus (28:15-21) of the Bible because it was one of the twelve stones in the breastplate of the High Priest Aaron.

Amethyst was also found in the tombs of King Tutankhamun and King Djer along with countless other pharoahs. The ancient Egyptians used Raw Amethyst to ward off: sorcery, misfortune, and to protect themselves from fear which explains why it was included in the Breastplate of Aaron.

Amethyst is commonly used to open the Third Eye and Root chakras which in turn raises consciousness and enhances spiritual awarness. One little unknown fact about Amethyst is that it is a great sleeping aid for those suffering from insomnia or bad dreams. Place a Raw Amethyst under your pillow at bed time to improve your quality of sleep.

Carrying a Raw Amethyst in a Mojo Bag can not only relieve stress but it also adds power to any type of spellwork that you are doing. Amethyst can also be placed on your altar around Spiritual candles to enhance the spellwork, anywhere in the home, and around tarot cards to raise spiritual vibrations. To cleanse an Amethyst you can place it in a bowl of salt water or on a piece of Selenite. After your crystal has been cleansed, place it in direct sunlight to charge.
