Stones Related to Anthy

Amethyst
"Metamorphosis" the ancient healer of all levels of body, mind, and spirit. Cleanses purifies, restructures and renews. Transforms lower energies into higher. Protects against psychic manipulation. Wear when sleeping or when awake to reduce anger, impatience, and nightmares.
Purple has long been considered a royal color so it is not surprising that amethyst has been so much in demand during history. Leonardo Da Vinci wrote that amethyst was able to dissipate evil thoughts and quicken the intelligence.
The legend of the origin of amethyst comes from Greek myths. Dionysus, the god of intoxication, was angered one day by an insult from a mere mortal and swore revenge on the next mortal that crossed his path, creating fierce tigers to carry out his wish. Along came unsuspecting Amethyst, a beautiful young maiden on her way to pay tribute to the goddess Diana. Diana turned Amethyst into a statue of pure crystalline quartz to protect her from the brutal claws. Dionysus wept tears of wine in remorse for his action at the sight of the beautiful statue. The god's tears stained the quartz purple, creating the gem we know today. (I thought that sounded like Anthy.)

Opal
Clarifies by amplifying and mirroring feelings, buried emotions, desires (including love and passion). Visualization, imagination, dreams, healing. Easily absorbs, stores emotions and thoughts. Fragile. Fades/cracks in sun, heat, salt, acidic foods. Backfires if not used for good of all. May change color with high energy/intensity people.

Turquoise
Opens the heart for giving/receiving. Symbolizes our source (spirit/sky) and spiritual love for healing, help. Like amethyst, it protects and detoxes from alcohol, poison, pollution, x-ray/sun radiation. Ancient absorber of "negativity"; protection from "evil eye" (or evil brother as the case may be).

Moon Stone
Enhances intuitive sensitivity via feelings and less overwhelmed by personal feelings. Greater flexibility and flow with life. For emotional balance, gracefulness. Helps all be more comfortable with our gentler feminine/yin receiving side. Especially for water signs.
