Amethysts are reported to open a person’s third eye. The third eye is considered to be a source of power and wisdom. Crystal practitioners believe a person can use amethysts to enhance or sharpen spiritual visions and enlightenment. Again, these are scientifically unproven claims.
Amethyst is particularly beneficial to the emotional body, bringing individuals who are overworked, anxious, or overwhelmed back to their centre. It calms those who are hot-headed and quickly angry by easing the mental concerns that cause physical tension and headaches. Amethyst guards against psychic attack, paranormal damage, or ill-wishing, and returns the energy to the cosmos when it has been turned into good, loving energy.
