Amethyst Wand - Stone of Higher Consciousness

Amethyst wand (length 13cm)

Amethyst is a mineral formed from quartz crystals, which has a very beautiful and deep purple-violet color. It is one of the most well-known and valued stones of the quartz group. Due to its enchanting color and hardness, amethyst has been used for millennia in jewelry, ornaments and spiritual uses.

Symbol meaning

Amethyst is considered an extremely powerful and protective stone and is thought to have a high spiritual vibrational frequency. It is said to transform negative energies into love. Amethyst's calm and peaceful nature helps to reach higher levels of consciousness. When meditating, it takes thoughts from everyday matters to tranquility, harmony and deeper understanding, opening the way to other dimensions. The growth pattern of the crystal structure is also significant in esoteric crystal thinking. An amethyst crystal, which clears from a cloudy base towards the tip, represents the possibility of mental and spiritual growth. Amethyst is also considered the stone of Pisces.

The amethyst crystal is naturally hexagonal in shape and therefore has six tapered facets at its tip that converge to a sharp point. These six facets are thought to correspond to the six chakras, from the root chakra to the third eye. The tip of the crystal represents the seventh or crown chakra and its connection to infinity. Amethyst is the stone of the crown chakra.

The wand as a form represents the element of fire. Wands have a long prehistoric symbolic background. Wands are mentioned in the Bible as well as in Greek mythologies and witchcraft traditions. Wands are thought to concentrate energy strongly and a single tip focuses the energy into a beam.

Ritual use

Wands are traditional tools used by shamans and healers. The healing power of the wands is said to be significantly enhanced when charged with a strong state of will or aspiration. When using the wand, it is important to consciously allow universal energy to flow through the crown chakra into the arm, from there into the hand holding the wand, and then into the wand, where the energy is amplified and transmitted to the target.

In altar use, an amethyst wand is placed on the altar and used to express and strengthen intention. It can also be used to enhance the meaning of other objects and create a sacred space.

Note! Crystals and minerals are natural products, so each one is unique. As a result, colors, shapes, and clarity may vary. Light brings out their natural beauty best. Trust that the stones selected for you by intuition will resonate best with your personal purpose.
