February's birthstone is the amethyst. Amethysts are said to reduce mental tension, induce pleasant dreams, prevent over-indulgence, help with breaking bad habits, and encourage transformation. The ancient Greeks believed that amethysts protected against drunkenness and passion. The stone's name comes from the Greek word amethystos, or "not drunken."

 

World of Amethyst

Amethyst was as expensive as ruby & emerald until the 19th Century, when Brazil’s large deposits were unveiled. It was believed to prevent intoxication—amethystos means ‘not drunk’ in Ancient Greek. Today, as the most valued quartz variety, amethyst is in demand for designer pieces and its purple to pastel hues retain wide consumer appeal.  The use of Amethyst in Jewellery creates a wonderful combination when set in yellow or white gold.  Often set with diamonds, Amethyst Jewellery is adorned by millions throughout the world!

 

Largest amethyst found:

The ‘Empress of Uruguay’ which weighed 2.5 tonnes, was discovered in November 2007 and needed two very large cranes to lift it from the mine where it was discovered in Uruguay. The Crystal Caves Museum paid $75,000 and a further $25,000 just to get the stone cleaned and set up in the museum. It now has a value estimated at over $250,000.

 

Myths and Legends:

Due to its wine-like colour, Greek legends associated amethysts with Bacchus, the god of wine; son of Jupiter; who was the last god to join the twelve Olympians. Bacchus was tutored into appreciating good wine!  The Greeks believed amethysts prevented drunkenness or intoxication; whilst soldiers during medieval times believed the amulets contained healing powers and kept people ‘cool-headed’.

The name Amethyst was borne from the Greek word ‘ametusthos’, (not intoxicated). Bacchus; angry over an insult and determined to avenge himself declared the first person he’d encounter will be eaten by his tigers. The unfortunate mortal happened to be a beautiful maiden named Amethyst on her way to worship at the shrine of Diana. As the ferocious beasts attempted to ambush her, she sought the protection of the goddess and was saved by being turned into a clear, white crystal. Bacchus, regretting his cruelty, poured the juice of his grapes over the stone as an offering, giving the gem its lush purple hue.

 

Amethyst: As a ‘talisman’.

The amethyst is believed to stimulate and sooth the mind. The gemstone is highly regarded as a gem that rises above its commonality and transcends it. Amethyst is especially supportive of the emotional body, bringing those who are overworked, overstressed, or overwhelmed back to centre.
