About amethyst

Oval cuts are the most versatile shape: they suit rings and pendants and tend to look larger for their weight. 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. In Vedic practice a gemstone is normally chosen after a chart review by a qualified astrologer, since suitability depends on the individual horoscope. Its traditional associations are symbolic, not promises of any result.

FAQs

What weight is right for me?

Most buyers decide by budget and stone size; those using the gem astrologically usually follow their astrologer. Some astrologers relate the Ratti weight to body weight; others use different rules, so recommendations vary.

Should I check with an astrologer first?

Gemstone astrology holds that the right stone depends on your chart. Many people consult an astrologer first; you can also book an astrological report on Brahmatells.
