Green Aventurine

Green Aventurine is a stone of optimism and zest for life.  It helps one move forward with confidence into new situations, such as changes in one’s employment, residence, school, relationships or spiritual focus.  It even assists one in embracing such challenging issues as ageing, illness and one’s own mortality.  It is not a stone of resignation or acceptance so much as it is a facilitator of one’s taking everything in stride.  It brings with it a feeling of lightness, even humour, as it assists one in dealing with the ups and downs of life.

In meditation, it helps one to persevere through the times when it seems as if nothing is happening.  In emotional life, it allows one to look at the bright side of difficult issues.  In healing, it instills life force and aids in rebuilding depleted energy reserves.

Green Aventurine can be a stone of ‘good luck’ and is recommended for those who wish to manifest greater prosperity.  It can assist in other situations where one’s overt external actions do not control the outcome.  It could be a good stone to carry to the racetrack, a tax audit or a first date!  It is a very ‘user friendly’ stone and one need only be near it to derive its benefits.

Green Aventurine is a powerful expression of the combined energies of the Water and Earth elements.  It supports emotional and physical healing and energy balancing.  Green Aventurine’s essence is that of spring bursting forth after a long, dark winter.  Its frequency stimulates renewal on the physical, emotional and spiritual levels, assisting one in releasing old patterns, disease and lessons, so new growth and movement can take place.

The Water element energy of Green Aventurine can assist one in perceiving the core emotional issues behind illness or imbalance.  It soothes emotional wounds and facilitates the release of outmoded relationships, emotional patterns and heartache.  Its frequency stimulates a sense of renewed hope and joy and is very useful for those who have issues of depression.  Because of its combination Water and Earth element energies, Green Aventurine allows one to remain emotionally stable through periods of change or upheaval.  It acts as an emotional anchor, keeping one rooted in the heart when emotional storms arise.

Green Aventurine helps clear and reinforce the emotional body and heart chakra.  It assists one in releasing attachment to outcomes and in being more present in one’s experiences.  It helps one to be willing to heal and move forward in life.

Green Aventurine assists one in finding hope, optimism, and joy in daily life.  It helps one to remain heart-centred and to peacefully navigate difficult emotional experiences.  It facilitates one’s willingness to release attachments to past relationships or life situations and to embrace change, growth and renewal.

Affirmation:  I move forward with optimism, confidence and renewed vitality.
