The metaphysical properties of Amethyst - The name Amethyst comes from the Greek word "ametusthos," meaning "not intoxicated," rooted in ancient legend. The wine god Bacchus, angered by an insult, vowed that the first person he met would be devoured by his tigers. That unfortunate mortal turned out to be a beautiful maiden named Amethyst on her way to worship at the temple of Diana. When the fierce beasts leaped, she sought protection from the goddess. To save her, Diana turned her into a clear white crystal. In a fit of remorse, Bacchus poured the juice of his grapes over the stone, giving it its beautiful purple hue. There are numerous variations of this legend, but the common belief is that amethyst possesses the power to prevent drunkenness and unhealthy indulgence in pleasures. The ancient Greeks and Romans routinely decorated their cups with amethyst, believing that wine drunk from them would not intoxicate. Another practice was wearing the stone as an amulet tied around the navel to diminish lust and repel fleshly temptations. Catholic bishops wore amethyst rings to protect against mystical intoxication. The modern spiritual person would immediately recognize the high vibration of the purple stone, which corresponds with the psychic center at the top of the head. The violet rays carry the magical power of dreams, inspiration, and destiny. They stimulate the creative use of life force, intellect, and life wisdom.
