The Birth flower for February birthstone is Amethyst

February is the Violet Amethyst is a violet variety of quartz often used in Jewelry.

Up until the 18th century, amethyst was included in the

cardinal or most valuable, gemstones (along with diamonds,

sapphire, and emerald. However, since the discovery of

extensive deposits in locations such as Brazil, it has lost most of its value.

Collectors look for depth of color, possibly with red flashes if cut conventionallyThe highest grade amethyst (called

"Deep Russian") is exceptionally rare and therefore, when one is found, its value is dependent on the demand of

collectors. It is, however, still orders of magnitude lower than the highest grade sapphires or rubies (padparadscha

sapphire or "pigeon's blood" ruby).

Astrological signs for the month of February are

Aquarius (until February 18) and Pisces (start at February 19)

Those born under the sign of Aquarius not only march to a different drummer, they make up new music

as they go along. They are 'mind oriented' individuals, whose thoughts

never stop tick-tocking over. Because of their high focus on intellectual

exploration, many inventors, eccentrics and highly original trailblazers are

born under this sign. Their intense ability to live on many mental levels, holds

both pain and pleasure for Aquarians. For example, in the American Hall of Fame

there are more Aquarians than any other sign, yet statistics reveal that in mental

institutions there are more Aquarians than any other sign too. Many extremes can

surround this sign and these extremes can take them to both heaven and hell.

But in everyday terms, most Aquarians are extremely humanitarian and often

involved in social programs that assist others. They can also be objective in

judgement, for they never let their emotions get in the way. Outgoing and

amiable, Aquarians attract friends wherever they go and those whom

Aquarians befriend have their unswerving loyalty.

Aquarians are the zodiac's most mysterious and unusual people - and no two are anything alike. Those born

under this sign - ruled by innovative and non-conformist Uranus - march to the beat of their own drum. They

see life in a different way. Others quite frequently think their habits and ideas are eccentric or crazy in some

way, but it is this uniqueness that makes them so special. The Aquarian mind is extremely quick and they never seem

to stop thinking (it is interesting to note that many born under this sign suffer from insomnia.) Aquarians usually

have strong political, environmental or social beliefs. But whether it is a relationship, career or cause - Aquarians are

happiest when they have "something" to believe in and nurture.

Special note for Aquarians: With the new Millennium heralding the Dawn of the Age of Aquarius, at

this time, ready or not, your sign is regarded as the zodiac's leader. You are the trendsetter for the future and

because of this high responsibility, many under born your sign will be undergoing at this time, as we approach the

Millennium, the pressure of personal change (particularly in your values and what makes you content and happy).

Yours has always been a philanthropic sign. Now more than ever these qualities will be highlighted.

According to one Greek myth, Pisces represents the fish into which Aphrodite

and her son Eros transformed in order to escape the monster Typhon; they are

tied together with a cord on their mouth (in the picture the cord is in each of

their mouths so either this is wrong or the picture is), to make sure they do not

lose one another. Alternatively, the twin fish were placed in the heavens in

honor of their heroic deed of saving Aphrodite and Eros from Typhon on the river

Euphrates. Another myth of Pisces is that it represents the Sea Monster that Perseus

defeated in Ethiopia to save the Princess Andromeda, and that Zeus was so pleased

with his son's feat that he placed the monster's skeleton in the sky as a reminder of

this heroic deed.

You flow from feeling to feeling, plan to plan, vision to vision. This makes you

highly creative or gifted at working with other people and sometimes just predictably unpredictable. You are the sign most

likely to motivate yourself to do something by saying you will never do it again. You are also very skilled in a helping

capacity, naturally comfortable with service. Yet you easily evoke the help of others by readily expressing vulnerability.

You are most happy when you can follow your dreams, while intimately linking with other people’s dreams. As the
