Amethyst, a purple quartz, is the traditional birthstone for those born in February and a gemstone steeped in ancient magic. It calms fears, raises hopes, lifts the spirits and promotes thoughts of the spiritual reality behind our lives. Worn, it wards off guilt and self-deception, helps to overcome additions, and calms emotional storms. It also lends courage to its wearer and is a powerful amulet for travelers. Because it is a spiritual stone, amethyst is often worn during contemplation and is conducive to meditative practices. The amethyst is also used to increase psychic awareness and to sharpen the "sixth sense" Since it is the stone of wisdom, it allows the information received through the psychic mind to be appropriately utilized. This beautiful stone also sharpens the conscious mind, quickens the wit and enhances mental powers. A stone of pure, true emotional love, it is often exchanged between lovers to strengthen their commitment.
