Rocks and Smells – Lavender and Amethyst
Over the past few years I have been combining crystals with fragrances for use in Magic, Spells and healing. I began writing a book using research from my previous book but it hasn’t progressed quite as quickly as I would want it to. Consequently I have decided to publish here in installments.
When working or meditating with gems and crystals, the use of fragrances can greatly enhance the experience. These fragrances can be essential oils, incense, herbs or flowers that have been associated with the particular gem.
Lavender:
My favourite flower and fragrance has always been Lavender. When my children were young, bunches of lavender were hung all around the house to dry.
Lavender brings peace and tranquillity, is calming, relieves headaches and helps with relaxation and sleep. It aids in all rituals and spell crafting involving protection, love, healing, longevity, purification and peace. Its calming properties can dispel depression and help control emotions.
It blends well with most oils, especially citrus and florals, chamomile, clary sage, geranium, pine, rosemary, patchouli, clove, cedarwood and vetiver.
I always associate Lavender with Amethyst which is my favourite crystal or gemstone.
Amethyst:
Amethyst is one of the most beautiful and versatile crystals. A stone of spirituality and contentment, it provides a connection to the earth plane and other worlds. It clears the aura and brings peace, stability and strength. It is excellent for meditation and enhances psychic abilities.
Amethyst, like Lavender, is very calming and is a good stone to use if you suffer from insomnia. It will also help you to remember your dreams.
It has a high vibration and is very powerful and protective, protecting against fear, nightmares, black magic or evil spells.
It can relieve migraine, headaches, insomnia, arthritis, pain, circulation, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, breathing problems, asthma, phobias, menopause, PMS and general healing.
By using Lavender and Amethyst together when meditating or working with magic, you greatly increase the benefits of both.
Blessed Be!
