What is a amethyst bracelet worn for?
An amethyst bracelet is traditionally worn for calm, intuition and a quieter mind at the end of the day. Amethyst belongs to the third eye and crown chakras and is linked with Pisces, Aquarius and Virgo. People reach for it when their thoughts run faster than they would like, and many keep it on through the evening. It fades in long direct sun, so charge it under moonlight.
What is amethyst?
Amethyst is the purple variety of quartz. Its colour comes from traces of iron in the crystal and natural radiation in the surrounding rock. It measures 7 on the Mohs hardness scale and is commonly found in Brazil, Uruguay and Zambia. Every Crystal Basket bead is natural and undyed, so colour and pattern vary from bead to bead.
Which wrist do you wear amethyst on?
Wear amethyst on the left wrist. By tradition the left side receives, and calm stones are worn to draw quiet in rather than send energy out.
How do you cleanse a amethyst bracelet?
Cleanse amethyst when it arrives and about once a month: overnight in moonlight, on a selenite plate for a few hours, or in palo santo, sage or oud smoke. A brief rinse in plain water is fine; dry it straight away so the cord lasts. Keep it out of long direct sun, which fades the colour of amethyst. Full cleanse and care guide.
What does amethyst pair well with?
Amethyst is often worn beside rose quartz, moonstone and clear quartz. Every bracelet is 8 mm, so any of them stack evenly on the same wrist.
