 Amethyst
Amethyst has long been called the "sobriety stone." In ancient Rome,

crushed amethyst was added to wine cups to prevent drunkenness. It is said

to assist with healing alcoholism, compulsive behaviors, and addictions of all

kinds. Amethyst brings energies of stability, peace, calm, balance, courage

and inner strength. It has been used to protect against psychic attacks. On

the spiritual level, amethyst can help open to communication with angels,

telepathy and other psychic abilities. It is an excellent stone for meditation

or dream work, past life work, and can help you see your path. It has also

been used to help ease the pain of grief, and promote happiness. Amethyst

is reputed to be beneficial when dealing with legal problems, and money

issues, which can lead to prosperity and abundance. Amethyst is also used

as protection for travelers. Physically amethyst is said by spiritual healers

and mystical lore to heal the withdrawal symptoms of any sort of addiction,

help with headaches, insomnia, arthritis, pain relief, circulatory system

issues, endocrine system problems, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, immune

system deficiencies, and general healing. Amethyst is associated with the

brow and the crown chakras. See extended amethyst info and lore.
