Magical/Ritual Lore:
The stones we now know as peridot and olivine were named topaz in the distant past. It was used at one time to cause its wearer to become invisible.

Magical Uses:
Topaz is another of the gemstones used for protective purposes. It is considered a specific against envy, intrigue, disease, injury, sudden death, sorcery and negative magic, and lunacy. The stone was thought to be especially effective when set in gold and bound to the left arm.

Worn, it relieves depression, anger, fear, greed, frenzies, and all disturbing emotions.

Placed in the home, it is a charm against fire and accidents. When put under your pillow or worn to sleep, the topaz fends off nightmares and ends sleepwalking.

The topaz is used to relieve the pain of rheumatism and arthritis as well as to regulate the digestive system. Perhaps this is why the stone is also worn for weight loss.

Known as "lover of gold," the topaz is used to bring wealth and money. Combine with an equal amount of tiger's-eye. Empower and place these stones around a green candle. Burn the candle and visualize.

Wearing a topaz draws love.
