Why should we wear or offer amethyst?
These powers are amazing and fascinate us.
The word “amethyst” would come from the term “without being drunk” inspired by its purple color representing the color of wine that is mixed with water.
The stone proudly bears this name which comes from the magnificent nymph “Amethystos”.
In the legend, it is said that she was transformed into crystal to protect herself from the advances of the god Dionysos, god of the vine. Seized with incredible rage at this rejection, the god spilled his glass of wine on the crystal nymph, who then took on a purple hue. This was then the birth of the amethyst stone.
The deep purple color offers powerful meaning to different civilizations.
