Green Aventurine Meaning + Healing Properties
When life feels like $h!t just hit the fan and you’re ready to turn your luck around, look no further than green aventurine. Known as a stone for prosperity, success, abundance, and good luck, carrying a piece of this crystal in your pocket, wallet, or on your altar will flow good fortune to you. The most common form of aventurine is green, which ranges from pale to dark green, and when polished, it can be easily confused with green jade. Aventurine can be found naturally in various colors, such as red, blue, yellow, orange, and silver. The various colors have many metaphysical similarities, but for the purposes of this blog today, we shall stick to green aventurine.
This beautiful crystal emanates a loving, calm energy, that brings peace and emotional balance to those that have a difficult time managing anxiety, anger, and trauma, by releasing old attachments, and patterns of behavior in order to move forward with joy, hope, optimism, excitement, creativity, and embrace a positive outlook on the world. This crystal works to release these energetic patterns in the etheric, mental, and emotional bodies of the biofield (aka the layers of the aura). It is said that green aventurine can help you move forward with confidence, especially working through challenging situations, on this roller coaster ride we call life! It encourages us to move forward, embrace change, and be in the present moment. Using this crystal will help you see things from a new perspective -the ‘bright side,’ even when things feel out of our control and unfavorable. Many who use green aventurine will meditate and use it to manifest before starting a new project, asking for a raise at work, going on an audition, and finding solutions to working with difficult people- especially family & friends.
On a physical level, green aventurine is believed to ease conditions relating to the circulatory reproductive & nervous systems, such as the heart, lungs, and thymus, encouraging fertility, and healing those recovering from surgery. It is believed that green aventurine can bring healing to various skin conditions such as acne and eczema.
Any time you need a little extra luck on your side, try meditating with green aventurine in one hand, and clear quartz in another to amplify the intention you would like to manifest. Pro tip: green aventurine works well with quartz crystals. So the next time you say your affirmations out loud, place a piece of clear quartz in one hand and green aventurine in the other while you recite them. Other uses for this crystal include placing a piece next to your cell phone or your laptop, which can help cut back on EMF exposure and other pollution from the surrounding environment. You may even decide to slip one in your pillowcase or place it next to your bedside while you sleep at night. After all, we spend half our lives in bed, so why not get the benefits of sleeping next to the lovely energy of the crystal?
If using this crystal in the application of Feng Shui, it carries the elements of Earth and water.
Zodiac signs that are associated with amber include Capricorn and Pisces.
