February Amethyst Earrings

February is always the Age of Aquarius--and Pisces, too! The gemstone of February is commonly and traditionally the purple amethyst. This gloriously regal quartz grows on the inside of geodes (aka "thundereggs"), with the richness of its color dependent on the presence of manganese and iron. Amethyst is believed to enhance serenity, reduce stress and spark self-discovery.
