Amethyst has long been called the "sobriety stone." It is said to assist with healing alcoholism, compulsive behaviors, and addictions of all kinds. Amethyst brings energies of stability, peace, calm, balance, courage and inner strength. It has been used to protect against psychic attacks. On the spiritual level, amethyst can help open to communication with angels, telepathy and other psychic abilities. It is an excellent stone for meditation or dream work, past life work, and can help you see your path. It has also been used to help ease the pain of grief, and promote happiness. It is reputed to be beneficial when dealing with legal problems, and money issues, which can lead to prosperity and abundance. It is also used as protection for travelers. It is associated with the brow and the crown chakras.

Silver is used with gemstones because the metal is able to both attract and retain qualities which are emitted by the stone. It is used to direct the energy of other minerals to the appropriate location. It also performs as a balancing agent, drawing forth negative energy from the body while transferring the positive forces of the stones. It tends to strengthen the silver or white light “cord” which connects the astral body to the physical body.
