Happy birthday, February babies! Your birthstone is gorgeous amethyst<\/a>, a deep purple gemstone with a long history of spiritual uses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is it?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This unique stone is a purple variety of the popular\ngemstone quartz. Its name comes from the Greek word \u201camethystos,\u201d meaning\n\u201cintoxicate,\u201d because the ancient Greeks believed the stone protected its owner\nfrom drunkenness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its unique color, which ranges from light pinkish-purple to\ndeep violet, is due to irradiation, impurities of iron and the presence of\nother trace elements. It\u2019s a relatively hard stone, making it perfect for most\ntypes of jewelry. It\u2019s prominently found in Brazil, as well as South Korea,\nRussia and Zambia. It\u2019s even mined in some areas of the U.S., including\nArizona, Colorado, Texas and Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Did you know?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A popular myth about Bacchus, the god of wine, shows the reasoning behind amethyst\u2019s connection with spirits. It was said that Bacchus released guardian tigers upon a wandering maiden before the goddess Diana intervened, transforming the maiden into a clear stone. Bacchus was seized with remorse and poured his wine over the stone, turning it a rich violet color. The maiden\u2019s name, Amethyst, was quickly transferred to the crystal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amethyst history<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Amethyst has been a popular gemstone for centuries, with\nancient Greeks and Egyptians both making use of the stone. Egyptians created\namulets with the stone, with early jewelers producing classic, practical\ndesigns and later artists designing more complex works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Throughout the Middle Ages, it was considered a symbol of\nroyalty and used to decorate sacred spaces. Tibetans consider it sacred to the\nBuddha and often use it when creating prayer beads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Did you know?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Legend says that St. Valentine donned an amethyst ring carved into a Cupid figurine. Because \u201cchaste love\u201d was highly valued in medieval times, and because the gemstone had a reputation for calming passions, the two were a match made in heaven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spiritual symbolism<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Best known for its ability to keep wearers grounded in\nspiritual thought, this unique stone is thought to protect, provide an aura of\npeace and enhance meditative state. As a stimulator of the Third Eye and Crown\nChakras, it is also thought to initiate greater understanding and develop\npsychic ability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Much like the zodiac signs it\u2019s associated with, amethyst is\nbelieved to enhance creativity and strengthen the imagination. It is often used\nto help guide meditation and recharge its wearers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
