Fancy swirls and four genuine amethyst crystals create a lovely border around this witch's knot. The pendant has a unique feeling of being somewhere between a circle and a square because of the combination of the circle in the center, a four-pointed knot, and the four crystals on the border, which suggest the shape of a square.
A witch's knot is a representation of the knot magic practiced by witches in the Middle Ages and was often scratched over doorways to keep away negative energy. This knot is known as a protection symbol because it is possible to draw it in one continuous motion, without ever lifting the pen off the paper.
Amethyst is known as a healing and protective stone that calms the mind and spirit and enhances one's intuition and ability to meditate. It is also said to protect against nightmares and insomnia.
