wait so what else is up with awoken amethyst besides the reflection thing
oh boy oh boy oh boy do I have an essay for you! it's mostly irl nerd stuff, but!!
Awoken amethyst is nothing like amethyst from Earth! Actual amethyst is almost always purple [but can have blue as a secondary hue], usually has color zoning and belongs to the hexagonal crystal family. Awoken amethyst is blue, has no color zoning, and has a pentagonal structure [which doesn't occur naturally]. Also, a lot of it hums and glows!
It is so unlike actual amethyst that it has been compared to a variety of other gems/minerals, including azurite, fluorite, tanzanite, sodalite/lapis lazuli and agate. So far, the Oracle Engine seems to be the main exception:
"But some of it looks purple. Why is that?" Good question! From what I've seen, it comes down to lighting and backlighting. In the Confluence and Blind Well, Awoken amethyst looks purple in the shadows but is blue when you step back. In The Corrupted strike and seasonal areas like the Coil, it's the opposite - it's purple from afar yet blue up close. The Last Wish raid shows it in purple backlighting at first, before giving way to its true color (blue).
Something something "nothing is as it seems," I suppose.
There is one more exception besides the Oracle Engine, however. And I think it's an interesting one. At the very back of Harbinger's Seclude, by the statue of the first Awoken queen Alis Li, the arches are clearly purple and resemble polished irl amethyst. What does it mean? I have no idea, I'm not a lore expert. But I wouldn't be surprised if it did mean something.
Other than that, I only know the standard lore stuff about Awoken amethyst. It's a symbol of Awoken royalty, it can be created thru Awoken favor, Techeuns use it to enhance their powers, it was once given as diplomatic gifts to Eliksni, so on and so forth. And yes, Mara did wish for the Dreaming City to be built out of amethyst.
Being a rockhound and aspiring mineralogist [and Awoken lore enthusiast], I'm always on the lookout for amethyst-related lore, but this is all I've got at the moment lol. Also I don't know if I actually answered your question but thank you for the Ask!!
Here is a screenshot of my Hunter as a token of my appreciation:
I managed to purchase terraria on my switch, and day one of being in the world, the guide watched me get killed by a purple slime and I still haven’t recovered
i need so much help because i have a large crystal collection but i dont know the names of most of these crystals and i need help identifying them. are tumblr users good with rocks
How do I attract love? Crystals / Stones for relationship
Have you ever pondered the potential significance of a love stone in your life?
Every woman who aspires to a good family life eventually wonders to herself, "How do I attract love?"
Both conventional and magical techniques are employed.
However, we will not discuss fortune tellers in this article; rather, we will discuss the stone of love, a talisman that can assist you in locating the desired bliss with your soul mate.
If you handle the situation carefully, stone love magic has a lot of potential.
You can use it to increase the sentiments you already have in your heart as well as to draw more love into your life.
The most important step is to select the proper talisman after carefully examining the stone's qualities.
This requires the utmost caution because, depending on the situation, a love stone can be both beneficial and harmful.
Even if you are desperate for love, you shouldn't buy a talisman right away.
Love stones can be quite erratic.
Only until your talisman finds you on its own will it be able to influence love intersections to their best potential.
Since there are various stones that attract love, you can select the one that will make you happy based on both its aesthetic qualities and its magical attributes.
Garnet is appropriate for someone, while someone will be enamoured with rose quartz.
So, think about the primary stones' features.
The primary gems that draw love
We shall build a list of the most potent in terms of love to make it simpler to navigate in the world of stones.
1. The heart chakra is opened by the love stone rose quartz. The talisman must be worn as a pendant around the neck in order to draw in the chosen male. Rose quartz is best left at the head of the bed when sleeping. This gem, among other things, aids in letting go of the weight of previous relationships, gets rid of negative ideas, imparts wisdom, and hones intuition. It is also appropriate for people who are too emotional because it will help them stay in control and rational.
2. Aventurine is made to balance the connection between the heart and the mind as well as draw affection. He adds some logic where emotions are dominant. As these two crystals compliment one another well, it is quite possible to combine it with rose quartz. Aventurine also shields the person from energy vampires' negative effects.
3.Pomegranate is a genuine stone for passionate red-colored couples. It activates sexual impulses, warms up fantasies, and awakens suppressed desires. The pomegranate talisman will soon ignite an extraordinary storm of passions and, of course, brand-new, positive emotions. Pomegranates are a symbol of sensuality and love, therefore receiving one as a present from a man will be the clearest indication that he cares about you. This stone should only be handled by married people with caution.
4.On the other hand, those who want to enhance and maintain current emotions are advised to wear emerald. This stunning stone of noble green balances relationships and draws in new affection. The emerald is thought to be a form of treason indication. The stone will break if two lovers wear emeralds, just as the relationship will break if one of them crosses the line of betrayal. These stones' very energy is directed towards preventing such occurrences since they do not accept lying and treachery in the name of attracting love. The crystal can eliminate the negative energy of the carrier, bring harmony to the family, and defeat deceit, a propensity for treason, scams, and robbery.
5.The rare and exquisite crystal known as turquoise encourages the pursuit and preservation of shared emotions. He will show affection to those who are simply looking for a soul mate, and he will support established relationships by fostering mutual respect and understanding. However, it is best to keep away from turquoise if you harbour wrath or hatred in your heart in order to avoid disasters and heartbreaking losses.
6.For young, naive girls and boys with pure hearts and strong spirits, diamonds are an expensive but powerful love stone. Two of these individuals can connect through the crystal's energy, which will also prevent them from making many errors. However, diamond jewellery will be useless for those who have already been married or in unsuccessful relationships.

I don't take back what I said last night about any new Sleater-Kinney stuff BUT AT LEAST they had the brains (not completely turned to mush by the seduction of fame and self-importance) to have Angie Boylan drum on the whole album. She's the one I saw play with S-K live when I went to see them in 2019, and while she wasn't Janet Weiss (excuse me while I fucking SOB), she was good for them as far as drummers go. I'm sorry, actually totally not sorry, but no cis-men should be drumming with Sleater-Kinney. From the one, singular streamed live performance by S-K that I saw where their drummer was a dude, I thought he overcompensated far too much and it made S-K sound just awful. So yeah, no wonder Angie Boylan was good for S-K again. People who are not cis-men just seem to get the feel of S-K's music without ever feeling the need to go over-the-top about it, which is exactly what their music needs (but isn't that also just punk rock ethos? Why play more than what's necessary? YOU KNOW?).
