The Hexagon is a shape with deep symbolic meaning. It is seen as a symbol of harmony and balance, as it is symmetrical and evenly proportioned. Hexagons are found in many sacred shapes, including the Flower of Life, which is an ancient symbol that can be found in architecture and art around the world. Hexagonal patterns are also common in nature, as they are efficient and strong. Honeycombs, for example, require less wax to construct than other shapes, and they are very resilient to compression.

Aquamarine is formed by the mineral Beryl. It can be created in laboratory by combining elements such as Beryllium Oxide, Aluminum oxide and Iron and forming it into a crystal through a process that combines high pressure and temperature mimicking underground conditions where they are normally formed.  As the mixture heats up, the Iron molecules begin to bond with the Beryl, resulting in a deep bright blue-green color.
