Hello March! 👋 The days are getting longer and the weather is getting warmer, springtime is almost here! Those born in the month of March have the birthstone that is mostly associated with water and is otherwise known as "the gem of the sea", aquamarine. The name aquamarine, comes from the Latin expression ‘aqua marinus’ which means ‘seawater’ in reference to the stones' attractive color! 😠The gem can range from a blue to slightly greenish blue hue, but it can vary from a light tone to a cool blue hue. As far as 500 B.C. this has been a popular stone used in jewelry because of its resemblance to the ocean and the exceptional transparency. Ancient mariners considered this jewel to be lucky as it was believed to have the ability to calm ocean waves to keep sailors safe at sea. On the other hand, it was also believed to bring happiness in marriage. Aquamarines are found throughout the world in places like Brazil, Pakistan, Africa, and is even the official gemstone of the state of Colorado.
