August- Late Summer 2018

Did you know the August birthstone is the PERIDOT? Pronounced “PearA-Dot” (rhymes with hot). It is sometimes called the evening emerald for its light green color. According to semi-precious stones mythology the peridot crystal shines like a light beam of energy, a stone of happy, lighthearted vibes and the perfect companion to lead us onto a path of sunshine.

Fun Peridot Facts and Folk Lore

It was once believed that the green peridot crystals found in volcanic ashes were the tears of the volcano goddess, Pele. The peridot has been found in volcanic lava in Hawaii and in meteorites that have fallen to Earth. In the 1700s, a meteorite that landed in Siberia contained many peridot crystals that were large enough to be used for jewelry. When set in gold, this gem was said to protect the wearer from nightmares. If your birthday is in August here’s to your good health, wealth, peace and prosperity through the peridot evening emerald birthstone!
