Not only are there atleast one for every month, but there are more than one for all the months. BFS is using the modern list. There are even lists described as ancient. Besides do you really think that in today's consumer driven world that the jewelry industry wouldn't have picked out a birthstone for every month? Seriously?

Yeah amethyst is the only variation of quartz that isn't named ___ quartz. Atleast I can't think of another one. Ex: rose quartz, which is pink quartz. There are also milky quartz, snow quartz, tourmalated quartz, etc., etc. There are so many that reg. quartz is often called clear quartz. You have to be careful & not expose your amethyst to sunlight for very long. I can't remember for sure what happens, but it will hurt it. I think it will turn yellow, but that might be heat that makes it yellow. Of course I can't find where I read that. I know to "recharge" it, you put it in moonlight.
