Amethyst is a meditative and calming stone which works in the emotional, spiritual, and physical planes to promote calm, balance, and peace. Said to stimulate, and soothe, the mind and emotions by promoting peace. It is the stone of St. Valentine and faithful love and signifies ecclesiastical dignity as the Bishop’s Stone. It is said to carry the energy of fire and passion, creativity and spirituality; yet bears the logic of temperance and sobriety.
