GENERAL
INFO FROM WIKIPEDIA:
Amethyst
is the official birthstone for February as adopted by the American National
Association of Jewelers in 1912. It is also the birth stone for the Zodiac
sign of Pisces. See the birthstone table for additional references
to this stone on alternative birthstone charts. Amethyst is suggested as a
gem to give on the 4th, 6th and 17th wedding anniversaries.
Amethyst
is the purple variety of quartz and the most valued member of the quartz
family. It must be purple to be amethyst, but it can display a range of
shades including deep purple, light lilac, lavender and mauve. Top quality
amethyst is a deep medium purple with rose-colored flashes. Its purple color
made it a stone of royalty for many thousands of years.
Mohs scale of hardness is 7.
Most
amethyst gemstones on the market today are heat-treated to produce a deeper
color. Heat treating is permanent and these stones will not fade over time.
Unless otherwise stated, assume that any amethyst you purchase today has been
heat treated to increase the depth of color. Also, note that most citrine available on the market today is
actually heat treated amethyst.
Amethyst Folklore, Legend and Healing Properties:
Throughout
history amethyst has been used to guard against drunkenness and is thought to
be helpful in overcoming addiction. It has been used for hearing disorders,
insomnia, headaches and other pain. Some sources suggest it is used to
stabilize mental disorders.
Worn
to make the wearer gentle and amiable. Amethyst powers include: dreams,
healing, peace, love, spiritual upliftment, courage, psychism,
protection against thieves, and happiness.
