Meditation with Peridot
Find a quiet space and hold Peridot in your dominant hand. Close your eyes and take three deep breaths. As a Aquarius, focus your meditation on renewal and letting go of the old.

When to Avoid Peridot
Consider avoiding or limiting Peridot when you are already going through too many changes at once. For Aquarius specifically, be mindful when your mind is already overactive — consider grounding stones instead.
