Hardness: 7.5–8 on the Mohs scale
Source: Notable sources include Brazil, Pakistan, Russia, Madagascar, and the United States (Colorado and California). The presence of mica inclusions is a natural occurrence that can happen in any of these locations where aquamarine forms.
Symbolic Meanings:
Serenity and calmness
Communication and truth
Cleansing and purification
Courage and protection
Associations:
Element: Water
Zodiac Signs: Pisces, Aquarius, Scorpio, and Gemini
Chakra: Throat Chakra
Historical and Cultural Use:
Aquamarine has been cherished throughout history for its stunning sea-blue hues, symbolizing the purity of crystalline waters and the joy and relaxation of the sea. It was believed to protect sailors, guaranteeing a safe voyage. The serene color of aquamarine is said to cool tempers, allowing the wearer to remain calm and level-headed. Mica inclusions add a unique dimension to the gemstone, often enhancing its beauty and value to collectors and those interested in the metaphysical properties of minerals.
Geological Properties:
Aquamarine is a variety of beryl, the same mineral family as emerald. It gets its blue to greenish-blue color primarily from iron ions. Mica inclusions within aquamarine are layers or flakes of mica minerals that have been trapped inside the crystal as it grows. These inclusions can create interesting visual effects, including shimmer or sparkle, adding to the stone's natural allure.
Spiritual and Emotional Significance:
Natural Aquamarine with Mica Inclusions is believed to carry the calming energies of the sea, aiding in soothing and cleansing the emotional body. It is particularly associated with the throat chakra, enhancing clear communication and the expression of one's deepest truths. The addition of mica is thought to amplify aquamarine's natural properties, providing additional layers of protection and helping to reflect negative energies.
Collectibility and Use:
Aquamarine with mica inclusions is highly prized among collectors for its unique beauty and the added interest of the inclusions. It is used in jewelry, especially in pieces where the natural form and inclusions can be highlighted and appreciated. In crystal healing and metaphysical practices, such stones are often sought after for their enhanced energies and as tools for meditation and emotional healing.
Care and Maintenance:
Aquamarine is a durable gemstone but should be treated with care to avoid scratches and damage. It can be cleaned using lukewarm soapy water and a soft brush. Ultrasonic and steam cleaners are generally safe for aquamarine without fractures. To maintain its energy, the stone can be cleansed with running water or placed on a windowsill under the full moon.
