Cleaning and recharging your Stone:
In its natural state, a stone purifies and recharges itself. But worn as jewelry or used as a rough stone, it is important to clean and recharge the stone properly. To clean Amethyst, it is necessary to leave it for at least three hours in spring water. Demineralized or lightly salted water can also work, but tap water should absolutely not be used. After this long purifying water bath, the stone is wiped dry and the water should not be reused. Now they need to be recharged with good vibrations. To recharge Amethyst, moonlight is very effective. The ideal for this stone is full moon light. However, sunlight risks making it lose its color.
