August brings us to the birthstone of Peridot, also known as “the gem of the sun.” It is said to possess healing properties that protect against nightmares and evil, ensuring peace and happiness. Peridot is one of few stones that only comes in one sparkling color, though may vary from yellowish-green to olive to brownish-green.
