With its fresh, vibrant green color, Peridot symbolizes renewal, abundance, and personal transformation. Often referred to as the “evening emerald,” Peridot is a semi-precious gemstone known for bringing wealth, vitality, and protection from negativity. In astrology, it is associated with Mercury (Budh) and is considered a powerful substitute for Emerald.
