Thanks! HistoryBecause of its wine-like color, early Greek legends associated amethyst with Bacchus, the god of wine. Other legends reflected beliefs that amethyst kept its wearer clear-headed and quick-witted in battle and in business affairs. Because amethyst was associated with wine, it was believed that wearing amethyst prevented drunkeness.Fine amethysts have been set in religious jewelry and royal crown jewels for ages. It was once considered equal in value to ruby, emerald, and sapphire. It’s no wonder that fine amethyst adorns the fingers of bishops as well as the coronation regalia of British royalty.Amethyst is the birthstone for February and one of the emblems of the twelve apostles.BirthstoneAquarius - January 21 - February 19MetaphysicalAmethyst is a meditative and calming stone which works in the emotional, spiritual, and physical planes to provide calm, balance, patience, and peace. The amethyst works to purify any space of negative vibrations, emanates higher energy and creates a suitable place for one to come back to the source of his or her own power. It calms and cools excessive emotions, and eases the transition to a more meditative state by clearing the unnecessary mind clutter. On a physical level, amethyst is said to strengthen the immune system and help heal imbalances of the respiratory tract and skin. It is interesting to note that the name amethyst translated from Greek means a stone that can protect the wearer from intoxication! Feng ShuiThe working of feng shui is based on the process of deflecting the negative energy and welcoming the positive energy inside. The crystals' potential of radiating positive energy is hugely used in the feng shui remedies. Among all crystals, amethyst occupies a special position owing to its versatile healing qualities. In feng shui, the amethyst is used for its purification qualities, as well as its ability to connect to higher planes of energy. It can be used to calm the emotions in a household where there are excessive arguments and misunderstandings. It can also help with study and learning.
