We recently included an Amethyst pendant in our Cacti & Crystals Rowan Berry Box and it got us curious about how we could use it to its fullest potential!

Are you searching for a natural way to ease anxiety, improve intuition, and achieve a good night's sleep? Look no further than Amethyst, the all-purpose crystal that's been used for centuries for its powerful healing properties.

From using the unique Amethyst pillar pendulum for divination and energy healing to transforming the Amethyst charm into a bookmark, planner charm, or necklace pendant, we've got you covered.

What is Amethyst?

Amethyst is a violet variety of quartz often used in jewellery and spiritual practices. It is found all over the world, with the finest specimens coming from Zambia, Brazil, and Uruguay. The stone's violet colour is due to the presence of iron and manganese, and it can range from pale lilac to deep purple. It reminds us of one of our primary brand colours at Under The Rowan Trees!

Amethyst has been used for centuries for its healing properties, and some believe it can boost intuition, reduce stress and anxiety, and improve sleep quality. Its versatility and beauty make it a popular choice for both physical and spiritual uses. Join us and explore the many benefits of Amethyst and why you should incorporate it into your life.

The Benefits Of Amethyst

Amethyst has long been revered for its healing properties. While some are drawn to its beauty and use it as a stunning accessory, others believe in its ability to improve physical and mental well-being. The following are just some of the potential benefits of incorporating amethyst into your daily life:

1. Stress relief: Amethyst is known to have a calming effect on the mind and body, reducing stress and anxiety levels. This makes it an ideal stone to keep in your workspace or bedroom.

    

2. Enhanced intuition: Amethyst is believed to help open the third eye chakra, which can improve intuition and spiritual awareness. This can be particularly beneficial for those seeking to connect with their inner self or further their spiritual journey.

    

3. Improved sleep: Due to its ability to promote relaxation and calmness, amethyst can improve sleep quality. This is especially true if you keep an amethyst crystal under your pillow or on your nightstand.

    

4. Physical healing: Amethyst is said to help with various physical ailments, such as headaches, migraines, and digestive issues. It may also help to boost the immune system and reduce inflammation.

Using the Amethyst Pillar Pendulum

If you're looking for a way to incorporate amethyst into your daily routine, one option is to use an amethyst pillar pendulum. This tool can be used for divination, meditation, and energy healing.

To use an amethyst pendulum, hold the chain with your non-dominant hand and ask a yes or no question. The pendulum will swing either side to side or back and forth to answer your question. You can also use the pendulum to identify areas of your body that need healing or to balance your chakras.

The amethyst pillar pendulum is a great way to connect with your inner self and gain insights into your life. But it's important to remember that this tool is only a guide.

And if you aren’t really interested in using the Amethyst pendulum to enhance your divination - we think it makes a brilliant accessory!

Here are some ways you can use your Amethyst pendant…

1. Use it as a pendant on a silver necklace and wear it around your neck.
2. Attach it with some colourful thread to a sturdy piece of card (preferably with a lovely pattern) and use it as a bookmark
3. Use some cotton cord and loop it through your phone case to use as a phone charm
