Metaphysical properties of AMETHISTThe name Amethyst comes from the Greek word ametusthos, which means "sober" and arises from an ancient legend. The god of wine Bacchus, angered by an insult, had sworn to let his tigers devour the first human that comes his way. The unfortunate mortal turned out to be a beautiful girl called Amethyst. She had set on a pilgrimage to Diana’s temple. When the cruel beasts came out, she sought the protection of the goddess. In the heat of the moment, Diana turned the girl into a transparent crystal. Overcome by remorse Bacchus poured the juice of his grapes onto the stone and gave it the lovely purple hue. There are numerous variations of this legend, but they share the common belief that amethyst has the special virtue to prevent drunkenness and unhealthy indulgence. The ancient Greeks and Romans routinely decorated their glasses with amethyst to control the intoxicating power of the wine. Another practice was to carry the stone as an amulet tied to the navel against excessive lust. Even Catholic bishops wore an amethyst ring to avoid 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.
