AMETHYST
Ancient civilizations placed a high value in this stone. Their belief was that the amethyst crystal meaning was synonymous with luxury. As such, it was highlighted as part of their crowns, scepters and rings. Amethyst crystal is one of several varieties of quartz, which gives it a crystal trigonal system. Its lavender to violet shade is the result of iron and aluminum deposits, as well as natural irradiation. Amethyst stone is made up of silicon dioxide.

The amethyst properties which facilitate intuition and communication can also be applied to increased work effectiveness.
