Caution
Emeralds often carry inclusions; clean stones cost more. Know that a cracked-looking stone is the cheaper kind before buying.
Gemstones are part of tradition; there is no scientific proof. Take a lab certificate before buying an expensive stone, and show your chart to an experienced astrologer if needed.
