Amethyst radiates divinity and purity, making it a standout in any collection. It is the traditional birthstone for February and is associated with Pisces, Virgo, Aquarius, and Capricorn. Known as the stone of "spirituality and contentment," amethyst is a variety of quartz with a violet color that can range from deep purple to light pink, with varying color intensity. Its color comes from the presence of iron ions within its crystal structure. Amethyst is one of the most versatile stones, symbolizing protection, health, and youth.
Metaphysical Properties of AMETHYST – The name Amethyst originates from the Greek word ametusthos, meaning "sober," and is rooted in an ancient legend. The god of wine, Bacchus, angered by an insult, vowed that the first person he encountered would be torn apart by his tigers. The unfortunate mortal was a beautiful maiden named Amethyst, who was on her way to pay homage at the temple of Diana. When the savage beasts leapt upon her, she sought protection from the goddess, and to save her, Diana transformed her into a clear, white crystal. In a moment of remorse, Bacchus poured the juice of his grapes over the stone, giving it its beautiful purple hue. There are many variations of this legend, but they all share the belief that amethyst has the power to prevent intoxication and unhealthy indulgence. The ancient Greeks and Romans frequently adorned their drinking cups with amethyst, believing that wine drunk from them would not intoxicate them. Another practice involved wearing the stone as an amulet tied around the navel to reduce lust and repel the temptations of the flesh. Catholic bishops wore amethyst rings to protect themselves from mystical intoxication. Modern spiritual practitioners immediately recognize the high vibration of the purple stone, which corresponds to the psychic center at the crown of the head. The violet rays carry the magical power of dreams, inspiration, and destiny. They stimulate the creative use of life energy, intellect, and worldly wisdom. The paler, white-lavender rays of amethyst crystals correspond to even higher vibrations, expressed in true humility and spiritual purity. They aid in connecting with the soul and facilitate processes of inner transformation and enlightenment.
