Amethyst is February's birthstone - sign is Pisces *Amethyst is known for it's purple color. It gets its color when iron replaces silicone in the structure of the crystal through irradiation so an amethyst’s color can vary from light violet to deep purple. The crystal’s color can be accentuated by applying heat and if exposed to sunlight for a long period of time, the purple color will fade. *Tibetan Buddhist monks use amethysts to make prayer beads. The beads are used during prayer and meditation to help the monks concentrate as the stone is seen as calming to the mind.
