Clarity, Balance, Inner Healing
Amethyst is the purple variety of quartz and is one of the world’s most popular gemstones. Funnily enough, this gemstone got its name from the Koine Greek word amethystos, which means ‘not intoxicated’ for its believed ability to protect its wearer from getting too drunk. It gets its violet color from impurities of iron called irradiation and occasionally from impurities in other transition metals along with the presence of trace elements.
Amethyst is thought to be the stone of protection; believed to bring calm, balance, patience and peace to the wearer. Amethyst is the birthstone of those born in February.
