Aventurine is known as the stone of opportunity, thought to be the luckiest of all crystals. It reinforces leadership qualities and decisiveness, promoting compassion and empathy. It stabilises one’s state of mind, stimulates perception and enhances creativity. Helps in seeing alternatives and possibilities. Calms anger and irritation. Promotes feelings of well-being.  Aventurine balances male-female energy. It encourages regeneration of the heart. Protects against environmental pollution.

Green Aventurine releases old patterns, habits and disappointments so new growth can take place. It brings optimism and a zest for life, allowing one to move forward with confidence and to embrace change. It enhances one’s creativity and motivation, and encourages perseverance in manoeuvring life’s obstacles. It also reinforces one’s decisiveness and amplifies leadership qualities, injecting a sense of humour and openness to the ideas of others.

Aventurine is connected to the middle chakra, it acts as a reminder of the harmony we need between the lower three chakras. The Heart Chakra, green on the outside and pink on the inside, is a perfect metaphor to understand the energy of Aventurine. The green acting as the outer shield protecting the soft, pink heart, our inner vulnerabilities. This comforting and secure energy gives us the confidence to move forward in life. To take risks, knowing that our heart will always be protected and safe. The subconscious mind or our ego has its place to protect us. But at the same time it signals feelings of fear and doubt in our minds, distracting us from when our heart speaks to us softly.
