If you were born in March, then you know your birthstone is the oh-so-lovely Aquamarine! In ancient lore, Aquamarine was considered a treasure of the mermaids. Sailors considered it a protective and good luck talisman. It was also prized as a stone of eternal youth. Today, Aquamarine is valued as a very soothing, cooling gemstone. It soothes your mind, body and emotions, calming you yet providing focus. Its qualities are good for physiological things such as hot flashes, anger, and also colds/strep throat and any sort of inflammation. If you have problems saying what you feel or mean (5th chakra), or even have a fear of speaking, Aquamarine is the essential crystal to encourage you to speak your highest truth and to do it with conviction yet compassion. It also brings to light when your ego is causing you to overreact, assume a victim/martyr/or abuser role or be passive-aggressive or manipulative. Lastly, it is a stone of release. Release of old patterns and habits, grief, grudges and emotions--even material things! (Are you a pack rat?) Aquamarines firm yet gentle energies in these important areas of our lives make it a gemstone we should all have in our collection :)
