Amethyst is considered to be the stone of "St. Valentine" as he reputedly wore an Amethyst ring engraved with the image of Cupid. Ancient Greeks believed it was the stone of sobriety - protecting against drunkenness.

New Age followers believe that amethyst brings about a spiritual awareness in person, and thus enhances spirituality. It is believed to ward away negative energy - energy that originates from within, as well as negativity that comes from those around us. It widens a person’s perspective and allows us to think outside the box. It is claimed that amethyst can calm down troubled spirits and emotions, keeps away nightmares, provides relief from physical and mental exhaustion, and helps a person get good night’s sleep.
