Pink amethyst is new and is hardly ever offered. It is an extremely energetic stone with strong healing properties. If you look at the most common properties, they are almost all properties that relate to the heart. The overview below shows what people value and use Pink Amethyst for the most. * Strongly works on the health of the heart and heart muscle. * Strongly promotes sleep when placed under the pillow where you sleep. * Breaks negative energy channels and relieves stress and tension. * Provides the insight to distinguish the good from the bad. The colour of pink amethyst is caused by the strong presence of haematite. This colours the quartz pink, in contrast to, e.g., rose quartz. Amethyst is derived from the Greek word amethistos, which means something like “against intoxication or not intoxicating” and has its origins in the ancient superstition that its wearer is protected from the intoxicating effects of wine.
