If there is only one stone you can get get an
amethyst. It has a receptive energy and is
associated with the element of water. Planets that
govern this stone are Jupiter and Neptune, the two
most spiritual planets and known for their stable
energy. Deities associated with this stone are
thought to be Bacchus, Dionysus, Diana. This is the only stone that I know of that can be
used for anything at all and has no known
associations with violence, anger or passion.
Therefore, it will not react negatively as can some
of the more temperamental stones we may use for some
purposes. Amethyst, which is actually a purple form of
quartz, actually surpasses clear quartz in its
multi-faceted nature. Clear Quartz can, and often does, become toxic
once it has been repeatedly exposed to great amounts
of negativity without being ritually cleansed. This
toxicity will bounce around in the owner's
environment and cause many problems.
No such thing will happen with amethyst. Amethyst, which ranges in color from the palest,
lilacs and lavendars, to the densest, darkest
purples that almost seem to be black. Some of the most popular uses of the amethyst are
dreams, overcoming bad habits, healing, psychism,
peace, love, protection against thieves, courage,
happiness, self-esteem, meditation and all spiritual
works, business success, and powers of the conscious
mind. Legal matters can be helped with amethyst as
well. YOU NAME IT AND AMETHYST WILL HELP YOU. Amethyst calms fears and raises hopes, and really
promotes thoughts of the spiritual reality behind our lives. You cannot have this stone around you and NOT at least consider more positive spiritual moves in
your life. The VERY high vibration of this stone
will encourage you to take your spiritual life
seriously. A wonderful stone for those prone to nightmares,
it drives off insomnia and produces a peaceful sleep, and can even bring prophetic dreams. It also has the uncanny ability to make sure you dont oversleep, [now don't all you sleepy bears run out at once in search

may be going through no matter how severe it may be.
Amethyst can also increase your psychic powers. Some
people keep an amethyst with their divination tools

information received thru the psychic mind properly.
