FAQs
Purple Crystal Meaning: Do All Purple Crystals Mean The Same Thing?
In some ways, yes! The color purple carries the vibration and feeling of relaxation, psychic ability, meditation, and happiness!
However, each individual crystal has its own chemical composition and molecular structure, which each vibrate differently.
For color therapy, you can use any purple crystal! For specific spells, healing, and blessings, you should use a specifically-tuned crystal.
How Can Amethyst Have Healing Properties?
We believe that every item on earth carries specific energy, and if you are around that energy enough, you start to take on its traits. Think about a tuning fork. The vibrations of a tuning fork can cause items around it to vibrate at their speed.
Doctors use the vibrations of tuning forks to heal various real illnesses. Amethyst vibrates at a specific level, and the vibrations of the stone affect the items around it. The healing properties amethyst, and different individual stones have, are based on the rate of their vibration.
Is Some Citrine Just Heated Amethyst?
Yes. Some citrine on the market is actually just amethyst that has had its color changed by applying heat! However, don’t let that deter you from working with heat-treated citrine!
“Fake” citrine is very good for removing negative energy, instilling positive thinking, and bringing out your intuitive creative side!
What Does A Purple Crystal Mean?
Purple crystals are great for helping you relax and connect to your spirituality. If you pull a purple crystal during a divination exercise, it means you should allow yourself the space to connect with the divine. It’s time for you to connect to true peace.
What Chakra Is Amethyst Good For?
Amethyst is great for healing, revitalizing, and balancing the third eye chakra, which is located in the center of your forehead, right above your eyebrows.
