First let me start off by saying I’m very new to this whole “witchy” thing. I became interested in tarot years ago but hadn’t explored it much until recently, and that’s when I also discovered crystals and followed by jumping headfirst into this path.
I remember being drawn to crystals as a kid, going to little fairs and shops and asking my parents for a few dollars so I could buy a pretty pink rock. I am convinced I will one day find all these crystals I bought years ago in a little box somewhere.
Since re-discovering them I’ve been drawn towards Amethyst more than any other crystal. I believe it has to do with its calming properties. So I went ahead and started to carry one in my purse with me, and I have a few throughout my home. I believed in their properties but maybe some part of me was still skeptical.
My best friend went on a trip recently, and I lent her my tiny little Amethyst I always have in my wallet with me. She rolled her eyes but promised to keep it on her.
So, Amethyst-less, I went to a friends house to housesit and after a few days there I felt off. My anxiety was really bad, worse than it’s been in awhile. I broke down crying out of nowhere, I texted my boyfriend literally asking him what was wrong with me. (He immediately drove over to make sure I was okay, by the way). All this to say I was really unsure why it was so bad. I’m always fine being away from home, so it had nothing to do with that.
It was only a few days after I stopped housesitting that I realized when I got home that I didn’t have any of my crystals with me. I’d relied on always having one in my wallet And then having a few placed about in my home that I had taken granted of their properties.
I’m convinced that my anxiety manifested itself because I no longer had the amethyst to help keep my mind calm when it gets itself all worked up.
hi! im also new on this witchy thing and i have also fallen quickly with the amethyst, i have realized the power of the crystals by sleeping the other night with my Amethyst, my pink quartz and my citrine quartz. Very strange dream (in the good way) and also deep rest! very recomended!
Sorry for my english, hello from Barcelona ❤ ☾ ❤
hi, i am also a beginner and I have always been drawn to crystals especially Amethyst. I am still learning about the other crystals and how I can use them. I work a lot with clear quartz to charge my water bottle and sleeping oils. I use a blend of essential oils (lavender, Ylang-Ylang and rosemary oils) to ease tension and stress and bring relaxation to have a restful sleep.
