Striking combinations of amethyst and agate have been carefully polished to portray the beauty of these pieces. An agate core is surrounded by quartz and vivid amethyst crystals. I just love all of these. The amethyst crystals have a beautiful deep color. These pieces have bright energies that lighten the spirit and the environment that found are in. They gently open the mind dispelling prejudices and preconceptions. They encourage cooperation and are excellent in bringing groups into harmony. They have a wonderful balance of energy that vibrates throughout your system. For those who tend to be hyperactive they work to calm the system. A beautiful piece from Brazil that comes with its own stand.

This piece measures 4.3" x 2.7" x 0.25" and weighs 2.5 oz (3 oz with base).

Amethyst is said to help remove toxins from the body and to help treat arthritis. It also said to be useful in treating a number of disorders including those of the digestive system, heart, nervous system, skin and hearing and to help provide relief from pain and to strengthen the immune system.

Amethyst may be used to remove radiation the body stores on the sides of the head...such as from computers and such. Geodes of Amethyst are particularly good for this, just place the head next to it; you will then feel the radiation being drawn out. Place on the 3rd eye and visualize yourself breathing in the color for total mental emotional soothing. It's a very good technique to do in bed before going to sleep. It is an amazing all round healer and also a brilliant meditation crystal.
