Second in the Series: Amethyst

Today we posted the second in Kimberlin Brown’s series on birthstones and this was of special interest since to me since Amethyst is my birthstone.

Birthstone for February: Amethyst, the color purple

But even though it is my birthstone I don’t often wear this stone.  I might be more inclined to wear it if I owned the absolutely spectacular graduating necklace of faceted amethyst teardrops that Kimberlin says Jackie O loved to wear.  I bet she did.  It’s gorgeous!

Kimberlin also shared that as the stone most closely associated with the heavens and spiritual thought, Amethyst is a great protector from negativity.  Now there’s some incentive to wear this purple gem.

While you read the article I’ll go find that Amethyst pendant I got for my birthday years ago.  You never know when you might need to ward off negativitiy.
