The rabbit symbolizes
In ancient Egypt, rabbits were considered sacred animals and were associated with the goddess of fertility and childbirth, Isis. It was believed that rabbits were her messengers, bringing news of new life and rebirth. This association with fertility and rebirth was also prominent in Celtic mythology, where the rabbit was a symbol of the moon, which was thought to govern the cycles of life and death. That’s what makes this pendant so unique, is that it also has a moon.
In Native American cultures, rabbits were also associated with fertility and abundance. They were seen as a symbol of the land and the bounty it provides, as well as a representation of the cycle of life and death. In some tribes, rabbits were also considered messengers between the living and the spirit world.
In Chinese culture, the rabbit is one of the 12 animals of the zodiac and is associated with the moon. It is believed that people born under the year of the rabbit are gentle, sensitive, and have a strong spiritual connection to nature.
Spiritual meaning of the rabbit
The spiritual meaning of rabbits is not limited to ancient cultures and mythology. They continue to hold a special place in many spiritual practices today. In Wiccan and Pagan traditions, the rabbit symbolizes intuition, luck, and transformation. They are guides who can help individuals navigate their spiritual journey and connect with their inner wisdom.
The rabbits association with intuition and transformation is also prominent in many shamanic traditions. In shamanic practices, the rabbit is a totem animal, representing a particular energy or wisdom that an individual can tap into. Rabbits are seen as animals of change and transformation that can help individuals shed old patterns and beliefs and embrace new ones that align with their spiritual path.
History of Amethyst
Amethyst is one of the most popular gemstone materials. As a variety of quartz, this material ranges in color from deep purple to pale lavender, depending on the presence of manganese and iron.
The origin of this gemstone, according to the ancient Greeks, was the nymph named Amethystos. She refused the attentions of Dionysus, the god of wine and intoxication. As he pursued her, she prayed for protection and to preserve her chastity. The virgin goddess Artemis answered her call for help, transforming the nymph into a white or clear stone. The story ends with Dionysus pouring his wine over the stone--either accidentally or deliberately--dyeing the crystal purple.
With purple dye being the royal choice in the ancient Mediterranean, the amethyst quickly became associated with wealth and power. It traditionally adorned the robes and crowns of rich and powerful monarchs, being viewed as equal in value to ruby, emerald and sapphire. Amethyst still holds a place in the halls of power, being worn by church officials in the Church of Scotland, the Anglican/Episcopal hierarchies and the Roman Catholic church.
The British Crown Jewels include a number of pieces with amethyst, including the Royal Sceptre with the Cross, the Kent Demi-Parure and numerous brooches worn by Queen Elizabeth II and other female members of the family. Other royal families have amethyst-studded tiaras and parures in their own collections.
Amethyst is the birthstone for February.
Metaphysical and Healing Properties
Creativity, Health, Healing, Meditation, Spirituality
Because of the myth of its origins, this stone has been believed to prevent drunkenness and have the power to quell a range of other physical appetites and indulgences. This sobering effect is also believed to clarify mental acuity, improving the decision-making ability of those who wear it. This made it a popular choice for giving to young men--helping them avoid temptation and keeping them clear-minded when using weapons.
Leonardo Da Vinci once wrote that amethyst holds the power to dissipate evil thoughts and quicken ones intelligence. Healers have been using amethyst to increase their psychic abilities and intuition for centuries. Cross-culturally, this popular gemstone was used as a symbol of peace and unification. It is also thought to evoke feelings of serenity and calmness in those who wear it.
Amethyst is often used during meditation to provide an overall sense of spiritual balance. Some naturopaths will use amethyst to help treat insomnia and sugar imbalances, and to relieve headaches.
Geological Properties
Amethyst is a naturally-occurring macrocrystalline (meaning large crystal formations) variety of quartz that usually grows on the inside of agate geodes. Geodes containing amethyst crystals are formed when clay, silt, sand or gravel are deposited and compacted by running water. While the crystals themselves may grow to be several inches, the geodes containing the amethyst crystals often reach several feet in height. Some of the largest amethyst geodes have been found in Brazil. Other locations where amethyst is mined include Sri Lanka, India, Uruguay, Madagascar, Germany, Australia, Mexico, Africa, Russia and the United States.
This majestic gemstone gets its color from the presence of manganese and/or iron. Amethyst can also appear reddish-purple or yellow-purple depending on the combination of minerals present in the clear quartz. Were amethyst less abundant, it would be even more highly-prized--and expensive!

Common questions
- For pendants pictured without a bail (the piece that goes into the drill hole so you can slide a chain through), I will make a wire bail. I will need to be able to reach you to see what color bail you want the wire in.
Please keep dry. Some crystals will dissolve if they get wet. A little sweat against the skin or a little rain (if you are out and about) will be fine, but please do not shower or swim with the pieces.
