When you first start exploring the topic of crystals and gemstones, it can be a bit overwhelming at first. What makes these small and large energy stones so special? Which one is right for me, and what are its known effects? And what do I do with them? Don't worry, we felt the same way when we first started. The first thing you need to know: You can't really go wrong. Gemstones can be easily integrated into your everyday life.
Gemstones are considered powerful companions, especially in a time when we spend most of our days staring at small screens. We quickly forget the world around us and feel disconnected—from nature, our fellow human beings, and ultimately, ourselves.
Even if it's easy to forget it with their dazzling colors and unusual cuts, gemstones originate from nature. They form from magma in the Earth's interior or from high pressure on a rock, and can transfer this energy to us. It often takes many millennia for a stone to penetrate the Earth's surface.
The stone you are ultimately holding in your hands is many years older and carries a great deal of wisdom and power. Let this thought ground you, arrive in the moment, and look not only to the future, but also to what has already happened. Only in this way can we learn.
Whether you just wear your new companion and let it work its magic on you or use it for rituals and ceremonies is now in your hands.
Aquamarine takes its name from the Latin "aqua marina," meaning "seawater," and refers to the sea-green to pale blue color of the stone. This name has been used in Europe for the blue variety of aquamarine since the 15th and 16th centuries. The beautiful color is reminiscent of sparkling seawater in a hidden cove.
Since ancient times, aquamarine has been revered as an important protective, symbolic, and healing stone. According to legend, the gemstone came from a treasure chest belonging to a mermaid. In Arabian countries, aquamarine was considered a stone of joy that helped achieve inner balance. The Greeks considered the shimmering blue-green stone a symbol of happiness, love, and purity. It was said that aquamarine could distinguish between truth and falsehood through its light and dark hues. In the Middle Ages, people viewed it as a symbol of chastity and used aquamarine healing stones to strengthen eyesight.
Aquamarines evoke memories of bright blue skies, beach holidays, and the endless expanse of the sea. These eye-catchers relieve stress and regenerate, bringing generosity and freedom. When you wear an aquamarine, it grants you resilience to complete your projects, strengthens your intuitive abilities, and reveals possibilities for realizing your desires.
The healing effect of aquamarine on the psyche
Aquamarine is also important as a healing stone for body and soul: With its delicate blue or sea-green color, aquamarine's effect is harmonizing, calming, and balanced. The gemstone helps combat depression and promotes serenity. Aquamarines also unfold their powerful healing effects in situations where self-expression is lacking. In relationships, they deepen love, strengthen loyalty, and are a valuable medium even in difficult times. Aquamarine alleviates aggressive behavior and depressive moods, strengthens determination, and promotes idealism. Its healing energies improve concentration and thus help us achieve goals more quickly.

Aquamarine's effects on the body are equally diverse. The gemstone has a positive influence on the glandular system and metabolism, prevents respiratory diseases and infections, strengthens bones, and protects against forgetfulness. Aquamarine healing stones also support vision and are particularly helpful for allergies such as hay fever. Due to their cooling properties, they are very soothing for burning eyes. This powerful stone is also used to combat pathogens that cause disease in cases of tonsillitis. Aquamarine exerts its harmonizing effect on the hormonal system via the lymph glands and thyroid gland.

Improvement of nearsightedness and farsightedness

Aquamarine application for optimal effect
Aquamarines make beautiful home ornaments, but their healing power is best realized through direct skin contact. Aquamarine gemstone water is excellent for compresses for strained and tired eyes. You should clean and discharge the stones under warm running water every day, if possible. For frequent use, charging in the sun is ideal. Jewelry such as necklaces or bracelets can be cleansed and discharged overnight in a bowl with hematite and tumbled stones.
