Aquamarine is derived from Latin word aqua, meaning water, and marina,
meaning the sea.  Was believed to protect sailors, as well as to guarantee
a safe voyage.  The serene color of aquamarine is said to cool the temper,
allowing the wearer to remain calm and levelheaded.  The 2nd birthstone for
March is bloodstone, dark-green jasper flecked with vivid red spots of iron
oxide.  This ancient stone was used by Babylonians to make seals and
amulets.
