Birthstone of the Month - Feburary

Is it February already? How did it get to be February? I can't keep track of time anymore.

Growing up I never knew anybody who had a birthday in February, I figured that it being the shortest month chances were lower for being born in it. Strange I know, I have since been proved wrong. Not only is my husband's birthday this month, it is also his sister's birth month and two of my brother-in-laws and a niece are all February birthdays. It's getting crazy for birthdays around here.

Amethyst

Amethysts are a purple variety of quartz, which is a fairly resilient stone. They are resistant to scratches and scuffs but intense heat can turn the color. 


Amethysts are supposed to encourage stability, peace, balance, and a calm disposition. This is interesting to me because everyone I know who was born in February has calmer personalities. They seem to be able to find peace and balance in their lives. Maybe Amethyst could help me find it in mine. 


Do you know many people born in February? Do they display the attributes associated with the month?

  1. February is a popular birthday month for our family. We have 2 on the 6th, 1 on the 8th, 1 on the 11th, 1 on the 17th, and mine is on the 18th. We also have 3 friends with February birthdays. I have to say that most of us are not the calm, stable ones that are associated with February birthdays (myself especially). I love all the Amethyst jewelry you showed. They are all beautiful!
