Aquamarine and Morganite belong to the beryl gemstone family. The subtle color in morganite is caused by traces of manganese. Bead-grade aquamarine tends to have many interesting inclusions and numerous opaque areas. The more intense the color, the higher its value. Beryls are hard gemstones, making them an excellent choice for jewelry that will be worn frequently. However, be sure to store aquamarine beads in a dark place, as they often become paler if left out in the sun.
Aquamarine is March's birthstone. However, there are zodiac stones too. Amethyst is the birthstone for Pisces (19 February - 20 March), Bloodstone is the birthstone for Aries (21 March - 20 April), and Beryl (Aquamarine, Morganite, and Emerald) is the birthstone for Scorpio (24 October - 21 November).
The legendary origin of aquamarine is that it was found in mermaids' treasure chests, making it renowned as a lucky stone for sailors. Its name is derived from the Latin words for "water" and "sea." Aquamarine is said to protect from perils of the sea, including seasickness, and to heal issues related to the throat chakra, such as nerve pain, toothaches and disorders of the neck, jaw and throat.
