Amethyst

Amethyst, together with rose quartz, is probably now one of the most popular gemstones.

Ancients thought it was a cure for drunkenness, probably because its name comes from a Greek word-implying sobriety, and those who wore it believed that they could drink as much as they wished without suffering any ill effects. The Romans often used Amethyst cups to help the drinker to remain sober. However, because of the darkness of the cups, the contents could be well –watered without anyone noticing and perhaps this is why they stayed sober! It is reputed to lose its brightness in the presence of poison and to pale if the wearer is ill.

Also associated with the month of February, the Amethyst gives serenity and steadfastness and has long been associated with St. Valentine, bringing happiness in love and good luck. Often used in religious circles both in rings and rosaries, an Amethyst wrapped in thin silk and held over the temples is said to soothe nervous headaches. Tradition suggest that the stone should, however, first be warmed either by sun’s rays or the warmth of a natural fire.

Considered to be a spiritual stone, the Amethyst has long had the reputation of being able to increase the owner’s ability to develop spirituality, purify and heal, and is very commonly used by healers tot induce calm and alleviate stress and loneliness. Used in meditation, for guidance and help, the Amethyst will help bring clear thoughts and calm the mind as well as help with headaches.

A very powerful stone, the Amethyst provides a link between the higher and lower states of consciousness.

During the Middle Ages the Amethyst was quite rare and was highly prized and it is still used in the rings of Roman Catholic bishops.

Amethyst has been connected with Sagittarius since the beginnings of modern astrology.

Spinel

Spinel, sometimes also called “spinal ruby”, is usually a lovely red color. It is said to give added strength of purpose to its owner and bring clarity of mind, especially in business matters.

Thought by the ancients to prevent damage from storms, it is now said to help in cases of nausea and sickness.

Turquoise

Turquoise, associated with December birthdays and so most properly used by those Archers born then, was used as a charm by Indian medicine men, which valued Turquoise as a powerful healer. Some American Indians still consider the stone to be sacred.

Reputed to be a love charm and another stone believed to change color if the lover is unfaithful or, indeed, if its wearer is close to death, it is also considered to be a stone of friendship and loyalty. Should your Turquoise start to pale, don’t worry – simply leave it off for a few weeks and it should return to its normal brilliance.

Used in ancient times to ward off accidents and given as a comfort o those about to undergo surgery. Those people who travel on horseback may with to wear Turquoise, as it is said to ensure the horse’s surefootedness.

Thought to bring prosperity and luck, especially if worn with sapphire, the Turquoise is reputed to promote the regeneration of cells, protect against pollutants and strengthen the body. It is believed to help with bed eyesight and if applies to the chest area in a poultice, to help with bronchial problems.

Sapphire

Sapphires have fir centuries been regarded as highly spiritual stones. It is said that a ring containing diamonds and sapphires will be exceptionally lucky, sapphires always having been associated with luck in romance. Said to bring peace and happiness, sapphire will help with the heart and stomach and also with stimulating the pituitary glands and psychic centers. Its primary role, however, lies in the field of mental health.

In ancient times it was used to treat eye disorders and as an amulet to give protection from bewitchment and to guard the chastity of its owner, dimming if there were signs of fraud or treachery.

The power of the sapphire will be increased if it is worn with the turquoise stone.

Lucky and unlucky stones.

Many stones are considered to be lucky and since early times have been used as means of protection. For those people interested in astrology, having considered the stones mentioned for their signs, it is worth pointing out that some sources believe that some stones are to be avoided at all costs.

For example:

Cancer- avoid opal and lapis lazuli.

Other traditional suggestions include linking lucky stones with hours of the day and days of the week.
