Aquamarine has a distinct greenish blue to blue color. Unlike emerald, light-colored stones in this color range are still called aquamarine. The stones that are richly colored are the most desirable, and the stones with a very pale color are made into inexpensive jewelry. Aquamarine differs from emerald in another way - it normally has far fewer inclusions and fractures.
Aquamarine stones have numerous benefits other than simply helping to boost one's confidence. The stone's color lends itself to a sense of harmony and joy. It can bring its wearer energy and a sense of playfulness.
The aquamarine crystal is thought to help wearers better and more holistically heal from emotional trauma through cooling tempers and conflict.
Other benefits of wearing aquamarine include stress relief, helping suppressed emotions resurface and instilling a sense of peace. It has long been thought that when wearing aquamarine jewellery, one can reap the benefits of a clear-thinking mind, as well as a calm heart through challenging times.
