Purple Majesty...

A friend did something wonderful for me today...we had lunch...good lunch...and she brought me an amethyst neckless. A really big beautiful stone...not only do I love purple but it's also my birthstone so I know a lot about it but I thought I'd share it on my blog too.

Amethyst are the stone of the spirit...some say it's the first stone of recovery...while others say is means sobriety to them. I just notice that there is a fire in an amethyst that the light shines through. If you get into the weirdo stuff, some believe it is used as a dream stone and to help insomnia. Put an amethyst under your pillow to bring about pleasant dreams, or rub it across your forehead to offer relief from a headache. Although I've never tried I do find some peace when playing with one in the light. I tend to lean towards the Brazilian stone because of the color and clarity of a stone. While I have several stone this new one is very meaningful to me...I think I will wear it for a while...
