Stone Wisdom: In Greek mythology, the amethyst was created when the character Bacchus poured wine over a maiden who had been turned to stone. Apparently, instead of releasing her, it turned her into amethyst! The ancient Greeks once carved entire wine goblets from amethyst, believing amethyst helped to prevent drunkenness. In modern times, amethyst is thought to symbolize love, honesty, and hope. It may promote health and wellness in the wearer. Amber has a very rich history. It was already a valued raw material in the Early Stone Age (Palaeolithic) and was used for the production of ornamental goods for many centuries in all the major cultures of Europe, the Middle East, Asia and the Far East. In today’s era of “healthy lifestyles,” when everything that is “closer to Nature” is in vogue, using every available natural product has become very popular. Thus, it comes as no surprise that medicines whose main ingredient is amber are in such great demand at homeopathic chemists. The cosmetics industry has also jumped on the amber bandwagon, using this mineral in an ever wider range of creams, tonics and treatments which are easily absorbed into the skin’s deeper layers.
