March Gemstone: How Aquamarine become the Royals' go-to stone

Aquamarine—a light blue stone that has captured the hearts of many since Princess Diana proudly flaunted her ring in 1996, (which is now in the possession of Meghan Markle). However, even before these two royals had a connection with the stone, the late Queen Elizabeth was known for adorning herself with a few Aquamarine jewels including tiara, brooches and necklaces. So why are the royals so fond of this March birthstone?

Reasons being, Aquamarine has an ability to instil a sense of calm. And who could benefit from this more than the royals themselves? This gentle blue stone is closely associated with hope, serenity, and the power to alleviate fears. Furthermore, ancient energy systems have linked Aquamarine to the throat chakra, suggesting its influence on communication, including public speaking and socialising.

So if you find yourself constantly in the public eye and regularly engage in significant communication—much like the royals—Aquamarine jewels are a worthwhile investment.
