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.
