Amethyst (Kathela) Natural – BTE110

Amethyst (Kathela / Jamunia) sold as a loose gemstone, so you can choose the weight and the setting yourself.

This is a loose amethyst, not a finished piece of jewellery; no metal setting is included. Weight options: 3 Ratti to 18 Ratti (16 options). Weights step from 3 Ratti to 18 Ratti, and larger weights mean a larger stone.

About amethyst

A natural shape keeps the stone closer to its rough form and suits artisan settings. Amethyst is the purple variety of quartz, ranging from soft lilac to deep violet, and it is the traditional birthstone for February. In crystal tradition it is chosen for calm, meditation and bedtime routines, and it is linked with the third-eye and crown chakras. In Jyotish, it is the gem linked with Shani (Saturn) in some Vedic traditions. Traditionally, a qualified astrologer reviews the chart first, since the right gem varies from person to person. Tradition attaches meaning to the gem, but no result is promised.

A common pre-purchase question: check the listing details and photos first, then message us if anything is unclear.

FAQs

What weight is right for me?

The right weight comes down to budget, how large you want the stone to look and, if you follow astrology, your astrologer's guidance. There is a familiar body-weight rule for Ratti, but astrologers do not all follow it.

Which planet is Amethyst linked to?

In Jyotish, amethyst is linked with Shani (Saturn) in some Vedic traditions.

Should I wear it without consulting an astrologer?

Tradition says a gem's suitability depends on the individual horoscope. Consulting first is common practice, and an astrological report is available on Brahmatells.
