Unlike commonly available Aquamarine, Gemisphere’s necklaces are 100% free of any treatments—no dye, no heat, nothing but careful cutting and polishing. Its color and clarity resemble the crystal-clear waters of the Caribbean. Therapeutic Quality Aquamarine The characteristics of therapeutic Aquamarine vary more than those of most other gemstones. Even the finest Aquamarine necklaces vary in mass, clarity, hue, and depth of color. Aquamarine naturally occurs in a wide range of color from green to blue, and nearly all Aquamarine is a mixture of both colors. All characteristics being equal, the green aspect focuses primarily on the physical body, while the blue aspect works on both the physical and subtle bodies. The more that blue dominates in the blue-green mix, the more the Aquamarine will focus on the mind. Because the mind has such a powerful influence on the body, the deeper the blue of the Aquamarine, the more effective the Aquamarine will be. Aquamarine color also ranges in intensity from deep and rich to colorless. The depth of Aquamarine’s color determines how deeply its energy can penetrate and affect the aura and body. Aquamarine clarity spans a continuum from opaque to flawless, with all degrees of cloudiness and flaws in between. Opaque and even moderately cloudy Aquamarine are not therapeutic. Slightly cloudy Aquamarine can be therapeutic if it displays a radiant brightness and good color. Although slightly cloudy Aquamarine takes much longer to produce effects than clear Aquamarine, it may be preferable for people who need a more moderate pace of change. The energy of clear or nearly flawless Aquamarine moves rapidly into the aura and body, where it quickly begins to open awareness and reveal truths. Each therapeutic Aquamarine necklace should have a consistent degree of clarity throughout the necklace and a uniform, clearly definable color. It might seem that by stringing together blue, blue-green, and green Aquamarine, one could enjoy the benefits of all three. On the contrary, such a combination would confuse the body. Each shade of Aquamarine color has a particular energetic character, or personality. The more uniform the color and clarity of an Aquamarine necklace, the more clearly defined its personality and the more focused and strong its therapeutic effects will be. Aquamarine's color is often enhanced through heat or dye. Although heat treatment does not inhibit Aquamarine’s energy, it also doesn’t strengthen it. Despite its improved appearance, the heated Aquamarine will continue to project its original, probably rather low quality of energy. Dye, on the other hand, renders Aquamarine therapeutically useless. Low-quality Aquamarine chips, in particular, are often dyed blue. The dye artificially deepens the gemstones’ color but blocks the Aquamarine from radiating any healing energy into the aura and body. Irradiation of Aquamarine results in the death of the crystal. It destroys the life energy of the gemstone and replaces it with an extremely disharmonious energy. If irradiated Aquamarine is worn, this disharmony will be projected into the aura. The destructive emanations of irradiated Aquamarine will first affect the mind, disrupting mental processes, distorting one's view of reality, and gradually wreaking havoc on the mind's harmony. Eventually, irradiated Aquamarine will distort the emotions as well.
