Pisces are imaginative, sensitive, compassionate, kind, selfless, sympathetic, idealistic, secretive, weak-willed and easy led. They are truly kind and always are thinking of others. If you know someone who has a birthday in March, throw them a party around their zodiac sign.
March Birthstone & Flower
The beautiful blue birthstone for March is aquamarine or the "color of the sea". It has a gorgeous blue/turquoise color to it.
