The Crystal with the Golden Spirit
This crystal holds the key to inner peace and balance
In recent weeks we’ve spoken of Amethyst and Citrine. I’ve been exploring the richness of a renewed connection with the violet coloured stone. And with the golden one, deepening my understanding of my worth and shifting my relationship with money. As different as they look, they are both types of quartz and sometimes, they manifest together as a crystal called Ametrine.
A Dance of Light and Shadow
Ametrine is the physical expression of balance—a stone that carries the soothing calm of amethyst’s purple hues alongside the vibrant warmth of citrine’s golden glow. When held up to the sunlight, the crystal reveals its true magic: the citrine glowing gold at its heart, nested in a halo of rich, regal purple.
This interplay of colors mirrors the dance of opposites within ourselves—spirit and matter, light and shadow, yin and yang. It embodies a unique, transcendent energy that invites us to explore the harmony that is possible within duality.
In a world often fractured by conflict and division, ametrine reminds us that duality need not be a source of struggle. Instead, it invites us to witness the profound beauty and peace that arises when contrasting energies coexist in harmony. This crystal shows us how to soften inner conflict by embodying heaven and earth so that we can have the ultimate experience of life as a spiritual being in a physical body.
Bridging Heaven and Earth Meditation with Ametrine:
To step into the experience of inner balance with ametrine’s peaceful energy, try this simple meditation:
- Find a quiet, comfortable space and hold your ametrine crystal gently in your hands.
- Close your eyes and take three deep, calming breaths, allowing your body to relax.
- Visualize the two colors of the crystal—the gentle purple and warm golden light—blending within your heart space.
- Imagine these energies balancing like yin and yang, bringing peace between your mind and emotions, your spirit and body.
- Stay with this feeling of harmony for several minutes, breathing softly and inviting any tension or inner conflict to soften and dissolve.
- When you feel ready, slowly open your eyes, carrying this sense of balanced duality into your day.
