Well, you know every month has its own birthstone? And February’s birthstone is the amethyst. Saint Valentine wore an amethyst ring, which is may be why the amethyst signifies love, although Roman Catholic bishops traditionally have their episcopal ring set with an amethyst, and the purple color is meant to symbolise God’s sovereignty and obedience to Him.
Amethyst is thought to be a powerful tool in decision-making, helping you to receive and trust your intuition

Amethyst is a semi-precious stone, a variety of quartz ranging in colour from very pale lavender through bright violet to deep, dark purple, and it is said to contain a tremendous amount of powerful spiritual and metaphysical power. According to crystal healing experts, amethyst emits a high vibration, infusing it with divine energy for purification, wisdom, balance, and tranquility.

Historically, amethysts were used as a gemstone by the ancient Egyptians, and medieval European soldiers wore them as amulets to protect them in battle. The Greeks carved amethyst goblets to drink from. Amethyst beads have been found in Anglo-Saxon graves in Britain, and, in the Middle Ages, amethyst was considered a symbol of royalty and used in English regalia. Tibetans believe that amethyst is sacred, and carve amethyst prayer beads.
