GEM OF THE SEA A dream of aquamarine signifies meeting new friends. It is the birthstone for March. It is also said to have a soothing influence on land, especially on married couples. Its power to help husbands and wives work out their differences and ensure a long and happy marriage makes it a good anniversary gift. It also protects against the wiles of the devil.
Most gemstones occur in families except for some, like diamonds and spinels.
The emerald too, is from the green beryl group. On heating the green beryl transforms into a clear sea-blue i.e. aquamarine. Often flawless, aquas are sometimes huge. After emeralds, aquamarine is the best known beryl. It is a durable and lively gemstone that is appropriate for all jewellery pieces.
