AQUAMARINE

The aquamarine is the traditional March birthstone. What mysteries lie within this precious gem? It comes in light hues of pale blue, not to be confused with the blue topaz of course!

Here, this soothing gem evokes loyalty, friendship, courage. This soft sense of blue is subtle yet strong.  It does not blurt out its message, instead it is simply there.


A poem for YOU~
"A March born shall always be
Soothed by Aqua, gem of sea
This mermaid's treasured stone you wear
Will bring happiness, love, affection and care."

This lovely gem assists the metaphysical aspect of our lives through awareness of surroundings and improvement of communications. It has healing properties through the throat areas, speech and stress related illnesses. 

If you are prone to stage fright, wear aquamarine or carry one in your pocket! 

Mariners carry this gem for good luck. Aqua as in water, marine as in the sea.
