AQUAMARINE is one of the world's most popular and well known gemstones. Often found with greater clarity in a light yet energetic blue. Aquamarine receives its color from the presence of two types of iron, ferrous and ferric. Ferrous iron provides the gem with its trademark blue color, whilst the presence of ferric iron turns the gem slightly green. ‘Santa Maria’ Aquamarine describes those with a deeper shade of blue than normal. Now a days Mint Green Aquamarine which has a tint of green is increasing becoming popular. According to Indian Vedic astrology, this gem is recommended to people with zodiac signs as Pisces, Aquarius and Capricorn.

From helping one control the temper to solving ego problems and instilling peace and inviting many advantages, this beautiful gem called aquamarine can be worn by others too after having a consultation with an expert of astrology. |
