Amethyst Crystals as a sleep and rest aide and dream stimulator by Crystal Healers, New Age Priests and Spiritualists.

Some Gemstones, gems, crystals and minerals have been believed to be a sleep aide, to have an effect on dreams, sleeping, dreaming, insomnia, sleeplessness, nightmares, foretelling, rest, resting, psychic development, consciousness and mental energy. Others have been said to work in the unconscious mind and the spiritual plane and seem to bring mental, ESP, emotional, physical, sleep transition, soothing to the spirit and can sometimes stop sleep disorders such as Sleep Apnea, snoring, tossing and turning, stress relief, energy, disturbed sleep or sleep walking. 

According to spiritual healers, there are two main characteristics of amethyst that make it a gem of tranquil sleep and inspired dream for fighting sleep disorders: first, its capacity to make that which is disturbed tranquil and its ability to ease transition. They believe that Amethyst is a protective stone that fends off psychic attack and reverts negative energy to positive peaceful energy, that it heals at all levels of mind, body and spirit including all levels of consciousness, and that it can open up channels for spiritual and psychic enlightenment. Members of the New Age also herald its ability to maintain focus and make its carrier spiritually aware, which they say is a characteristic which aides in restful and productive sleep. Amethyst is used to calm the stressed and provide sound sleep for the overworked and overwhelmed.

Amethyst and Dreams
The evening is the time most representative of sleep and dream and according to crystal healers, the violet of amethyst is representative of the dusk-colored sky and the transition between night and day and between physical conscious and unconsciousness. In their belief system, the physical and mental calming attributes of Amethyst contribute to soothing the transition between wake and sleep to fight sleeplessness. Amethyst, therefore, soothes the process of slipping into a dream state. Its calming power also allows for the eradication and protection against nightmares and disturbed sleep. Amethyst stabilizes the connection to the ethereal. Many crystal healers use amethyst to help others (and themselves) to engage in inspired dreaming, which inhibit dreams that foretell some sort of life truth about the dreamer. Amethyst has also shown its effectiveness for accessing the source of knowledge unattainable by conventional means. This resting quality allows for the growth of one's intuition and psychic development.

Amethyst and Sleep 
Those involved in crystal magic say the transitional aspect of the gemstone amethyst's healing allows for a peaceful sleep as the amethyst radiation eases the passage from the physically conscious mind to the unconscious. The energies focused upon the reality we know to be physically visible, begin to switch over to those which are visible through intellect. Amethyst is known as a great asset in meditation and its ability to maintain peaceful energy during rest from rigorous mental activity carries over as a sleep aide to reduce tossing and turning and for stress relief. It, therefore, bridges the gap between ordinary and more complex forms of consciousness. Some have said it may even aid in reducing snoring.
