What is the Aquamarine Stone Good For?
A crystal's healing properties and associations explain what they're "good for." For Aquamarine, there are four healing properties associated with the stone that can help you determine if it's the right crystal to incorporate into your healing practice.
Healing Property 1: Peace
The first healing property associated with Aquamarine is peace. Life can be incredibly chaotic. There are external responsibilities that pull your focus and take away from time you have to yourself. There are also loud, internal thoughts that can make it hard to fully relax and decompress.
It is believed that this crystal can help you find moments of peace throughout the day. This means fully turning your brain off and not having any responsibilities. This allows you to fully recharge and allows your mind to rest.
Healing Property 2: Clarity
Aquamarine is also associated with clarity. When you feel like you can't sort through all the noise, you might struggle to make rational decisions and are easily distracted. This can make it hard to be present when you're with your loved ones and might make you struggle when you have to make choices.
It is believed that Aquamarine can help provide the clarity you need. It can quiet down the noise and help you think clearly.
Healing Property 3: Courage
Aquamarine is celebrated for promoting courage in a person. We all have fears and struggle to uncover our inner bravery. Not having courage can hold you back from career growth, can hinder your full potential, and can cause you to lose out on amazing opportunities.
It is believed that Aquamarine can help us work through feelings of fear and find the courage to push through them. It can help you feel brave and give you the confidence to go after what you want.
Healing Property 4: Honesty
Finally, this stone is associated with honesty. It's not easy to always be honest—sometimes we use white lies to protect ourselves from the harsh realities of the truth. Whether it's being honest with others or honest with yourself, if you struggle with the truth this crystal is for you.
Aquamarine is revered for helping you find the bravery to be completely honest. It helps you face any situation head-on and deal with the aftermath of being 100% truthful.
If the above healing properties resonate with the goals you have for crystal healing, it could be a sign that you should be wearing Aquamarine crystal fidget jewelry. Crystal healing relies on intentions and goals to guide the practice which is why it's important to choose crystals whose healing properties align with your goals.
What Chakra is Aquamarine Aligned With?
Aquamarine is aligned with two of the seven main chakras. The first is the throat chakra which controls our ability to communicate. When it's blocked, you might be feeling like you can't clearly articulate your thoughts or that you're constantly caught in misunderstandings. It is believed that Aquamarine crystals can be used to unblock the throat chakra to improve your ability to communicate.
This crystal is also aligned with the heart chakra. The heart chakra is associated with love—it is influences our ability to love and feel loved. When this chakra is blocked, you might not feel open to making connections with others or you might feel disconnected from the people in your life. It is believed that you can use Aquamarine to unblock the heart chakra, opening yourself up to love and helping you feel loved by others.
What Zodiac Should Wear Aquamarine Crystal Jewelry?
The most obvious answer for this question is the Pisces zodiac sign! Aquamarine is the birthstone of March which already means it would be the perfect crystal for a Pisces to wear. You might wondering why it's not the right crystal for an Aries since Pisces only represents the first half of the month. While and Aries can benefit from wearing Aquamarine, the fact that the crystal has such close associations with the sea makes it perfect for a water sign.
Pisces tend to live their lives with their head in the clouds. They are huge dreamers and have a ton of big ideas. Aquamarine can amplify their youthful spirit and allow them to live in their day dreams. Aquamarine can also help them get out of their heads, especially when they're caught in unproductive thought spirals.
How to Cleanse Aquamarine Crystals?
Crystals rely on energy. This makes them very susceptible to the energies in their surrounding environments. There is a chance that your crystal came into contact with negative energy from the time it leaves our facility to the time it arrives in your mailbox.
There's no need to panic! There are plenty of methods you can use to cleanse your Aquamarine crystal jewelry to ensure you get rid of any negative energy before you begin your healing practice. You can try any of these cleansing methods to prep your crystal:
- Charge it in moonlight. You can use the power of the moon to charge your crystal with positive energy. Find a spot in your home that has access to moonlight and leave your Aquamarine there for the duration of the night. The best time to do this is during a full moon when the moon is at its most powerful state.
- Soak it in salt water. As a crystal with such strong ties to the sea, it should come as no surprise that you can use salt water to cleanse it. The best way to do this is to fill a bowl with warm water and add a pinch of salt (you can use table salt or sea salt). Leave your Aquamarine crystal to soak in the salt water for 30 minutes. Rinse off your crystal after taking it out and let it fully dry before you begin wearing it.
-
Wash it with warm water. Another method of cleansing you can use is washing your crystal with warm, soapy water. You can use water from the tap for this and a mild dish soap. Put the dish soap on a clean brush with soft bristles and lightly wash your Aquamarine. Make sure to rinse off any remaining suds and let your crystal fully dry before you begin wearing it.
- Use a sage or Palo Santo smudge. Finally, you can use certain herbs for cleansing crystals. Get a sage or Palo Santo smudge and rub it on your Aquamarine for a couple of minutes. These herbs are believed to soak up any negative energy that may be charging a crystal.
Every month or so, you'll want to use one of the above cleansing methods to remove any negative energy that your crystal might have come into contact with through daily wear. You don't have to use the same cleansing method every time, use whatever is most convenient for you!
How Do You Use Aquamarine Crystal Jewelry for Healing?
The next step the process after cleansing your crystal is to begin your healing practice. At the start of every practice, regardless of the crystals you're using healing, is to fully open yourself up the the possibilities of your practice. Check in with yourself to see if you're harboring any doubts about the process. If you bring hesitancy and skepticism into your practice, it could tamper the full effectiveness of it.
After you work through any doubts you might be having, you'll want to set an intention for your practice. An intention is what you're hoping to work through or accomplish through crystal healing. The intention should be specific and related to one or multiple of the four healing properties we shared above.
For Aquamarine, you might consider setting an intention to work through any fears that are holding you back from life-changing experiences or to prioritize moments of peace throughout the day.
Once you've decided what your intention will be, write it down somewhere easily accessible so you can return to it at any point in your practice. Then, take your Aquamarine crystal element in your hands and speak your intention into it a few times. This can help solidify what your goals for the practice are. As you go through your daily life, remember what your intention is and make decisions that align with it.
As time goes on, you might accomplish what you set out to or find that your intention is no longer relevant to the stage of life you're in. That's completely normal—life is constantly changing and your priorities are always going to evolve. To set a new intention, use one of the cleansing methods we shared above and repeat the intention-setting process.
