I did wonder, too, whether it was the particular amethyst you had that caused the bad luck. Crystals can absorb negative energies from their environment and the people around them over time, and sometimes they reach a point where regular cleansing cannot heal them, they need to be given back to Mother Earth to transmute. Such a crystal could indeed transmit that negativity into your life if carried on your person.
There are, as someone else mentioned, different types of amethyst, too, such as the regular purple amethyst, chevron amethyst, Vera Cruz amethyst (paler), gemmy or druze amethyst...I'm sure there are more. It could be an aversion to one type, not necessarily all types.
Sometimes people can have an aversion to a crystal when they are resisting the lesson it seeks to teach. Amethyst is about protection, indeed, but it is also about healing and becoming whole, and can also be used for spiritual and psychic development. Is there something about one of these aspects that you may be resisting?
Sometimes, a crystal, symbol or particular item could have negative connotations for us from a past life or forgotten childhood experience. This subconscious negativity could, then, create the bad luck in your life. If this is the case it would be more complex to release those negative connotations, but you could also use an alternative crystal. Plenty of crystals have protective properties, including clear quartz, pyrite, black tourmaline and moldavite. Clear quartz is healing as are most of the green crystals, especially malachite. There are other crystals to use for psychic and spiritual development, too, for example, labradorite, lapis, lepidolite, sugilite and charoite.
