Amethyst is a member of the quartz family with a trigonal crystal structure that can vary from a pale to deep purple color. Amethyst is a gem of royalty and was called a cardinal gem and was as valuable as precious gems like ruby and sapphires until a large deposit was discovered in Brazil. This beautiful purple gem is the birthstone for February and is one of the hardest colors to find in nature. In Greek history, it has been thought to be a strong antidote to drunkenness. Amethyst holds spiritual properties of protection and purification. It has been an aid to curb overindulgence and aid giving up habits.
