The trend toward metaphysical healing and crystals is growing as quickly as the New Age movement, and no one knows this better than retail rock shop owners.  While many other crystals have become popular over the years, retailers are always looking for more reliable sources for wholesale amethyst stones.  It’s not that the metaphysical qualities of amethyst stones are so much better than rose quartz or black tourmaline; it’s just that amethysts are more recognizable to most customers.

Amethyst stones are used for everything from designer amulets to jagged cut geodes.  Their dark purple coloring has entranced countless jewelry buyers for centuries, even millennia, and there is no other stone quite like it.  Perhaps this explains why amethyst has also become a trend in metaphysical circles.  Beyond their use as bookends and worry stones, amethyst stones are often made into smooth spheres and pyramids, obelisks and crystal point pendants.  Retailers may find that these specimens are difficult to keep in stock, especially those that cater to New Age customers.

Amethyst stones have become known for their healing and meditation powers, but the truth is they’ve been regarded as healing stones as far back as 2000BC.  When the ancient Egyptians wore amethyst amulets shaped like animals.   Later, the Hebrews believed amethyst stones could help them have vivid dreams and visions and the Greeks used amethyst as a way to ward off drunkenness.

Known for their various healing properties, these mystical purple crystals are primarily known as calming influences.  Whether used to pacify stressed out individuals or to combat insomnia, wholesale amethyst stones are a popular way to iron out the wrinkles of a bad day and calm anxiety.  Because they resonate to such a high level of internal vibration, metaphysical believers regard the amethyst as one of the most divine stones in the universe.  They are known to provide spiritual wisdom and insights within the context of meditation, and it is linked to the Crown Chakra, our most important source of energy from the Universe.

Amethyst stones may be purchased wholesale throughout the world.  The stones are mined in areas as diverse as Siberia, Canada, India, East Africa, Uruguay, Britain, USA and Mexico.  For the most diverse selection of wholesale amethyst stones, visit the online store catalog at Pikes Peak Rock Shop, at PikesPeakRock.com.  In addition to amethyst, you will find an incredible assortment of rocks and minerals from around the world.
