The sphere is a symbol of the universe. It has no beginning and no end, no top and no bottom. The sphere embodies absolute harmony and stands for peace, balance and spiritual wholeness. Representations of the sphere appear in many variations throughout the cultural history of mankind - from the orb as a symbol of worldly power to the symbol of the sphere in the Tarot as a sign of unity.

The name amethyst is derived from the Greek word amethystos (counteracting intoxication) and refers to the traditional belief that with an amethyst one is protected against the intoxicating effects of wine and other alcohol. Spellings such as Amathyst, Amethist, Ametist, Ametyhst, Ametyst, Amnethyst, Amthyst or Amythist are therefore incorrect.
