Safe Travels into the New Year with Aquamarine by Darren Campbell

The end of the year approaches. Here in but a moment. And as 2018 gracefully lays her head down, knowing her end is near, she calmly reaches forth, proffering a stone in the palm of her hand. In it lies a beautiful watery-blue stone to help guide us through the dark of night. A stone which appears to encapsulate the seas, and whose name literally means "water of the sea". Aquamarine.Navigating these turbulent and troublesome times is hard. And Aquamarine is here to help. It is a stone of courage and protection, and provides safety in travel. It is also a useful stone for moving through transition--both dealing well with change and finding closure on all levels. It can help us to move past resistance and to overcome fear of the unknown, as well as our personal fears and phobias.Embracing the nature of the water element, Aquamarine is a stone for going with the flow and is ready to soothe. It produces a calming wave of energy, isolating one from turbulence from without, while helping to release inner turmoil. A de-cluttering, if you will. And an encouragement of inner peace while releasing emotional baggage.Aquamarine also promotes verbal self-expression and helps one to clear any blocks in communication, effectively helping one to find their voice. As mentioned in previous articles, it is a fantastic stone for encouraging tolerance and for overcoming judgment. Thus it can even lead to a more sensitive awareness, initiating a connection with mass consciousness.

Aquamarine encourages the ideal of service to the world and to the development of a humanity attuned to healing. It emits a gentle and compassionate energy, promoting moderation and responsibility for ones' actions. It inspires judgmental people to be more tolerant, and helps those overwhelmed by responsibility to find order.
