Amethyst Care Guide: How to Cleanse, Charge & Maintain Your Crystal

Amethyst is one of the most beloved crystals in the world — prized for its stunning purple hues and calming energy. Whether you just brought home your first amethyst cluster or you're expanding a collection, proper care keeps your crystal vibrant and energetically clear.

How to Cleanse Amethyst

Crystals absorb energy from their environment. Cleanse your amethyst when you first receive it, then monthly or after intense use:

• Smoke cleansing: Pass your amethyst through sage or palo santo smoke for 30–60 seconds.
• Moonlight: Place it on a windowsill overnight during the full moon. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight — it can fade the purple color.
• Sound: Use a singing bowl or bell near the crystal for a quick energetic reset.

How to Charge Amethyst

After cleansing, hold your amethyst, set an intention, and place it where you'll see it daily — a desk, nightstand, or meditation space.

Daily Care Tips

• Dust clusters gently with a soft brush; avoid harsh chemicals.
• Keep away from prolonged direct sun to prevent fading.
• Store separately from harder stones to avoid scratches.
