Hello 1st of the month. Hello February’s Birthstone: Amethyst. Ok so I’m late… again, I know it’s the 5th, but I’m determined not to let my new years resolution go. It’s better to come late to the party than not at all…. right?

Every month has it’s own unique birthstone. Said to reflect the characteristics of the Birthday girl / birthday boy, like a star sign. The birthstone for February is ‘AMETHYST’ a beautiful purple or violet quartz colour. They can range from deep violet shades to pale lilacs.

The word ‘amethyst’ is derived from from the word amethystos, a Greek word meaning “sober” or “to not intoxicate.” Amethysts are believed to give the recipient a clear head (sober) and give clarity on a situation. Soothing a stressed mind. They represent creativity and are said to inspire or awaken. An Amethyst birthstone card can be given as a amethyst birthday gift for birthdays that fall throughout the whole month of February.

A symbol of strong friendship – Give an amethyst birthday card to strengthen that friendship, manifest energy, peace and love to the wearer. In the home amethysts are used to create positive energy flow so whilst your card is up, let it channel positivity for the birthday girl.

We personalise amethyst birthstone cards with a special message to the February birthday girl or birthday boy. To give a card that’s not just a throw away item. A card that has meaning. Personalise your gorgeous personalised amethyst birthday cards at The Luxe Co here
