The Two Most Important Birthstones for March
Aquamarine
The aquamarine birthstone, such as this specimen from the Blue Nile, symbolizes a peaceful sea. Aquamarine is a stone that represents healing and calm. The cool blue and blue-green tones evoke a sense of peace and tranquility.
In the Middle Ages, Europeans believed it could save someone who had been poisoned. Others powdered the stone to treat a variety of maladies and disorders.
Aquamarine was a natural talisman to protect seafarers and served as an elegant decoration for mermaids. Its name is derived from the Latin aqua marinus, which means “water of the sea.” Aquamarine was also linked to the moon by seers, possibly as a link between the lunar orbit, the tides, and this sea jewel.
Aquamarine’s reflective properties, which are claimed to produce harmony, are still cultivated by New Age enthusiasts. It is linked to the throat chakra, which helps the speaker overcome their fear of speaking and share their truth and knowledge.
Aquamarine was previously a popular bridal gift, representing everlasting love. According to some, it’s also said to be able to reignite lost love.
Bloodstone
The bloodstone birthstone symbolizes courage and healing. Bloodstone is a symbol of power and vigor, and it is commonly regarded to have healing properties. Bloodstone was thought to enhance circulation and heal blood diseases and wounds in ancient times.
This March birthstone is also known as the Martyr’s Stone or Christ’s Stone because legend shows that during the crucifixion, Jesus Christ’s blood dripped upon some jasper, permanently coloring it crimson. Because of how it reflects light, the ancient Greeks called it heliotrope, which means sunstone. Other allusions to bloodstone objects, such as ornamental vessels, date back 5,000 years, and it was utilized by the Babylonians to produce seals and amulets.
What are the Tips for Buying Birthstone Jewelry?
Bloodstone is a semi-precious stone with healing properties most usually connected with Christianity. It’s critical to scrutinize the stones before purchasing bloodstone jewelry to avoid being duped into buying anything that isn’t genuine.
One of the most important aspects to look for is the brightness and how beautifully it shines when it comes to bloodstones. This is a fantastic way to tell if it’s a genuine gemstone. Because bloodstone is usually opaque and nonporous, its clarity isn’t a significant element in determining its worth.
The darker and richer color of bloodstone is best complemented by yellow gold or sterling silver, which brings out the stone’s darker and richer color. This March birthstone makes a lovely pendant and may be carved into various designs to compliment any ring. Its size and color make it a famous stone for men’s rings, while its spiritual significance makes it a famous stone for religious objects such as crucifixes and alternative healing.
Bloodstone jewelry is more difficult to come by, but it can be found in specialty jewelry shops.
Where can I Find Aquamarine?
Brazil – Most of the world’s aquamarine has been mined in Brazil, notably in the state of Minas Gerais, over the past two centuries. The eastern part of the state contains the optimum combination of primary and secondary pegmatite deposits to form aquamarine within the rock.
Pakistan is a country in South Asia. Aquamarine isn’t only found in Brazil. Aquamarine is also found at high altitudes in Pakistan’s Karakorum foothills. Miners put their lives on the line to get to the aquamarine reserves. Miners must not only climb some incredibly steep roads but are also compelled to work on the side of sheer cliffs. These journeys are found at elevations as high as 13,500 feet.
Aquamarine birthstones may be found throughout Africa, including Kenya, Nigeria, Zambia, Madagascar, and Mozambique. Gemstone demand has sparked unrest in some African countries, making mining activities risky. Tanzania’s gemstone wealth comes from the Mozambique Orogenic Belt, one of the world’s most abundant and hardy gem sources.
Surprisingly, the United States has its aquamarine deposits, and Aquamarine is even designated as Colorado’s state gem. Aside from Colorado, there are aquamarine mines in California’s San Diego and Riverside counties.
How to Care and Clean Bloodstone Birthstone?
Cleaning your bloodstone jewelry with chemical cleaning solutions is not recommended, as with most gemstones. It’s also sensitive to intense heat, so going to the beach with it might not be a good idea. You can safely clean bloodstones by soaking them in warm water with a bar of light soap and soaking them for a few minutes before rubbing them dry with your fingertips or a soft towel. Because bloodstone is just a seven on the Mohs scale, it requires extra care and should be stored wrapped in a soft cloth.
One thing is sure: whether you choose the pure blue sparkle of aquamarine or a more earthy symbol of your birth month, one thing is sure: Bloodstone and aquamarine are both beautiful birthstones. Make sure you take good care of your gemstones and buy them from a trustworthy jeweler you can trust. Ask about our aquamarine bracelets when you call Jeweler’s Touch today.
How to Buy Aquamarine?
Aquamarine is a lovely gemstone to buy for any occasion, especially for someone born in March or commemorating or rekindling romantic love. The color ranges from almost transparent to a deep dark blue.
Aquamarine gemstones, like diamonds, can be graded on cut, color, clarity, and carat weight.
Look at the cut of the gemstone first. The cut is particularly crucial to the overall appearance of the gemstone. How even or saturated, the color appears because aquamarine can be pretty pale-colored (and occasionally appear virtually colorless).
While you can choose the color gem that most appeals to you, lighter-colored aquamarines are generally considered less valued than more substantial, deeper blue or blue, green hues.
Next, consider the clarity of the diamond. Most cut stones are free of noticeable inclusions, and some rarer or more expensive aquamarines are also available without them.
Aquamarine crystals can grow enormous, so larger cut gemstones are available if you want to make a statement. Princess Diana wore an aquamarine ring and bracelet, and Queen Elizabeth II of England wore an aquamarine tiara, necklace, earrings, and bracelet.
Even if you’re not seeking “crown jewels,” tiny aquamarines can make stunning solitaires or companion jewels in more significant pieces. Aquamarine jewelry can, of course, be made more meaningful by the symbolism or sentiment underlying the purchase.
Conclusion
Youth, hope, and good health are all represented by this sign. Aquamarine is the birthstone for March, a month that ushers in spring and the promise of regeneration, and it symbolizes hope and has beautiful blue tones.
Aquamarine is a beryl type with a Mohs hardness rating of 7.5-8. It is more durable than emerald, another mineral from the beryl family. This stunning stone comes in various colors, including sky blue, sea green, and dark blue, and is dichroic, meaning it appears blue or colorless depending on the angle from which it is viewed. Aquamarines of gem quality are discovered as hexagonal crystals up to a meter long and of excellent quality, from which substantial water-clear stones can be cut. Brazil, Nigeria, Zambia, and Madagascar are all essential sources of aquamarine.
