A pearl is an organic gemstone formed inside the soft tissue of a living mollusk, such as an oyster or mussel. It is created as a defense mechanism when an irritant gets inside the mollusk, and the creature layers a substance called nacre around it to smooth and protect itself. Pearls are prized for their lustrous beauty and have both decorative and astological significance, often linked to the Moon for emotional balance and peace.
