Communicating with Your Amethyst
Sure, lists of crystal properties can be helpful—but if you already have Amethyst, I encourage you spend some time with your crystal before you read the list.
Hold it in your hands and breathe deeply, silencing your mind.
Introduce yourself to your crystal, in your mind or out loud.
Let your crystal know that you recognize them as a sovereign being, that you don’t want to project a purpose onto them, that you love and appreciate them, that you are tuning in and listening, asking what they need, asking how they would like to show up in your life.
You may be surprised at what they communicate with you. It may align in part with something on the list, or it may be completely different.
Why do all of this? Well, crystals have been programmed and enslaved by humans. It is possible for us to be in reciprocal, harmonious relationships with crystals, but that starts with the practice I described above. It requires communication and co-creation.
Now, if you still want to read the list of uses and properties of Amethyst, here you go! But if you feel like you don’t need the list anymore, that’s okay too! 🙂
