Before Imbolc stirs, I like to work with amethyst to sort worries. You will need an amethyst for this spell. Sit where you will not be disturbed for twenty minutes.

Close your eyes and let your thoughts whirl. Give your monkey mind freedom to roam over stresses and worries.

Count to ten.

Pick up the amethyst. Place it in one palm, and cup the other palm over it. Breathe, visualizing a set of cubbyholes, with the amethyst glowing, brightening, as the chaos settles down. Those pesky concerns climb into their own slots, compartmentalizing themselves.

Sit quietly until the twenty minutes are up, then place your hands on the ground and drain away excess energy. Keep the amethyst in a safe place.

Your worries and stresses are now organized. When you are ready to deal with each one individually, hold the amethyst and let its light lead you to clarity as you work on the issue.
