The deepest purple colour comes from Uraguay. Amethyst encourages spirituality and insight, imbuing justness and honesty. It helps quiet the mind, bringing peace and allowing our inner […]

Calcite

According to the “doctrine of signatures”, a term used to describe the principle that like will cure like, those little circles look like cells.
