Description Amethyst is known as the “Stone of Spirit,” it calms, protects, and cleanses the spirit. Amethyst symbolizes humility, sincerity, and spiritual wisdom. The word “amethyst,” derives from “amestuthos,” an ancient Greek word meaning “not intoxicated.” There is a great, ancient Greek, mythological story involving the God of Wine, Bacchus, and a young girl turning into a stone. It is a very interesting tale of how amethyst came to be this beautiful, purple, gemstone and how it got its name. *These beads are half drilled beads.
