A Bit About Amethyst

I had so much fun with Tidbits About Turquoise that I thought I would share another stone with you. Here are some bits about amethyst for you to enjoy:

*February's birthstone

*Said to assist with stopping addictions (Funny, I have plenty of amethyst beads and yet they don't seem to be helping with my bead addiction!)

*Assists with meditation and psychic awareness

*Suggested that amethyst helps with headaches and other pain

Do you know any other bits about amethyst or have an amethyst or purple creation to share?

Any ideas as to which Bits you would like to learn about next?
