It derives its name from the Greek word amestuthos that means “not drunken”, and was used by both the Romans and the Greeks to hinder inebriation. Hence, the gem is sometimes referred to as a sobriety stone because of its ability of helping to overcome addictions.

The February-born shall find
Sincerity and peace of mind
Freedom from passion and from care
If they an amethyst will wear
