The sparkling interior contrasts beautifully with the rough outer matrix, giving the piece a natural cave-like appearance.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts compact size makes it ideal for an altar, bedside table, desk, meditation space or crystal collection, while still offering plenty of visual impact and natural character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeological Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAmethyst is the purple variety of Quartz and is composed primarily of silicon dioxide. Its colour is created by trace amounts of iron within the crystal structure combined with natural irradiation during formation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmethyst geodes form when mineral-rich fluids enter cavities within volcanic or sedimentary rock. Over time, Quartz crystals grow inward from the walls of the cavity, creating the characteristic sparkling crystal-lined interior.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmethyst forms within the trigonal crystal system and has a Mohs hardness of approximately\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e7, making it relatively durable. However, crystal points can still chip if knocked, and prolonged exposure to strong sunlight may gradually fade the purple colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpiritual \u0026amp; Magical Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWithin spiritual and magical practice, Amethyst is strongly associated with intuition, protection, purification, spiritual awareness and calm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is commonly used during meditation, divination, dream work and ritual, particularly when seeking greater clarity or a quieter mental space. Amethyst is also traditionally placed within sacred spaces or the home for its protective and cleansing associations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause a geode contains many individual crystal points growing together, it is often viewed symbolically as a stone of collective energy, harmony and amplification. It can be used as a focal piece on an altar, within crystal grids, or in spaces dedicated to spiritual practice, reflection and rest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCorrespondences\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eElement:\u003c\/strong\u003e Air \u0026amp; Water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStar Sign:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aquarius, Pisces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChakra:\u003c\/strong\u003e Third Eye \u0026amp; Crown\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlanet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Jupiter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.5 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength \/ Depth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.5 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAs this is a natural crystal, variations in colour, crystal formation, inclusions and surface characteristics are part of its individual geological formation.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hidden Self","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56140755206466,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0815\/0856\/5314\/files\/rn-image_picker_lib_temp_b1a6c2af-b78b-40a5-9d7c-77232ef23ffc.jpg?v=1788997909","url":"https:\/\/hiddenselfcrystals.co.uk\/products\/amethyst-geode-small","provider":"Hidden Self","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
