Both Amethyst and Calcite have metaphysical properties, Amethyst is said to bring a sense of calm, balance and spiritual growth and Calcite is believed to enhance mental clarity, boost energy levels, improve memory and promote emotional balance.

Amethyst is a purple variety of quartz and owes its violet color to irradiation, iron impurities, and the presence of trace elements, which result in complex crystal lattice substitutions. The hardness of amethyst is the same as quartz, 7. The ancient Greeks wore Amethyst and carved drinking vessels from it in the belief that it would prevent intoxication. What does Amethyst do metaphysically? Amethyst is the power stone of the Crown Chakra and is thought metaphysically to transform negative energy into positive energy along with helping overcome grief and sadness to bring inner peace.

Calcite is a carbonate mineral and the most stable polymorph of calcium carbonate and is a 3 on the Mohs scale. How is calcite formed? Calcite is created by direct precipitation from waters rich in calcium. Calcite metaphysically is believed to improve thought, develop memory, and nurture development.
