Aventurine comes in a variety of colours – blue, red, brown, peach – but I am especially fond of the green stuff.

Aventurine is well known as a stone of positivity and prosperity. It’s a great stone for business people! Putting some in your cash tin is said to help attract more money your way 😊

But it’s not just about growing your bank balance. Green aventurine is also a great stone for personal growth. It helps us to learn about ourselves and our place in the university, and to even help us to open up to love (even if we’ve defended ourself against it until late in life). 

Green aventurine is also known as a stone of comfort for the heart and heart chakra. It helps our hearts to heal, to return to balance and harmony, and to help us to see the opportunities presented in even difficult situations (particularly those brought to us by other people).

I like green aventurine (and also green calcite) for its anti-inflammatory properties – although obviously it shouldn’t be used as a substitute for appropriate care by a health professional.

Do you like green aventurine? How do you like to use it?
