A carpenter doing some work at my house gifted me a piece of amethyst yesterday. He’s from Thunder Bay, which is home to one of the world’s largest amethyst deposits. I did not know this.
Amethyst is known to promote calm and ease anxiety. That’s exactly what the painting I’m currently working on does for me when I look at it. The timing of the gift feels less than coincidental given the colours in the clouds and the sky. There is a synergy in the air.
