How to Use Crystal Amethyst

Amethyst is not just gorgeous to look at, but many people are looking to it for the holistic properties it offers as well!

Now I am by no means an expert when it comes to holistic practices, gemstones, or or even life for that matter, but I do like to keep an open mind about the power of nature and how the Earth provides us many things to help us get through life.

I have been working on keeping some natural items in the home such as palo santo wood, white sage, and of course amethyst which are suppose to aid in reducing stress, finding peace, and help with achieving clarity.

These items seem to be some of the easiest to use and are affordable to own, and so I thought I would share some of my experiences with them…with you!

If you are curious about the properties of amethyst, take a peek below at 7 ways to use amethyst in your home for a feeling of overall peace and well being.

Where to Find Purple Amethyst

Before we can talk about these 7 ways to use purple amethyst, let’s talk about where you can find some of your own. Many people ask me about where to buy purple amethyst.

I prefer the natural raw cut/geode pieces as you see below. The colors are gorgeous to look at and the facets and texture make them even relaxing to look at and hold.

Many cities have natural living stores that carry these cuts of crystal amethyst, but I was able to even find one on Amazon that is gorgeous and around $8. You can buy the same one here.

I have also seen purple amethyst and crystal amethyst at stores that specialize in natural living. Some health supply stores carry them as do nature and gardening specialty stores.

If you prefer online shopping, even Etsy has a nice selection of amethyst stones, amethyst jewelry, and crafts made from purple amethyst.

How Much is a Purple Crystal Amethyst Worth?

One of the things I love most about purple crystal amethyst is that it is affordable. You can usually find purple crystal amethyst for around $2 per carat.

More detailed and multi faceted clusters will sell for more, so this is something to keep in mind.

Depending on the location the crystal was mined in may affect value as well. So if you see a large variation in prices, these are details to look at.

I have purchased quite a few purple crystal amethyst pieces in the last few years, and it seems like the average size chunk (small enough to fit in palm) runs between $6-$8 dollars.

Smaller dime sized pieces can sell for as little as $1-$2. As you can see, it is one of the more affordable pieces for you to enjoy.

Now that you have your amethyst, let’s talk about how to put it to work for you. Here are 7 ways to use amethyst as soon as it arrives.
