Green Aventurine
Green Aventurine is known as the “Stone of Opportunity,” thought to be the luckiest of all crystals, especially in manifesting prosperity and wealth, or for increasing favor in competitions or games of chance.

Power
Green Aventurine releases old patterns, habits, and disappointments, so that new growth can manifest. It brings optimism and a zest for life, allowing us to move forward with confidence and to embrace change.

Green aventurine declutters the energy field, especially around the heart chakra. This is why it is a wonderful stone for attracting romance. It assists us in healing old emotional wounds while simultaneously opening us up to receive more love. You’re feeling unstable or ungrounded.

Green Aventurine is a comforter and heart healer. It neutralizes all sources of electromagnetic pollution, blocking out emanations from computers, television and other electronic equipment. Green Aventurine settles nausea and dissolves negative emotions and thoughts. It brings well-being and emotional calm.

Given its green color, this crystal is also great for working with the heart chakra (which is also associated with green). Askinosie recommends placing your green aventurine over your heart to open your heart chakra to giving and receiving love.

What is green aventurine?

Green aventurine is a type of translucent quartz that gets its green color from a concentration of fuchsite inclusions. (Different types of inclusions can result in different colors.) A majority of the green aventurine mined today is found in India, though it’s also been found in China and the state of Vermont.

According to crystal expert and co-founder of Energy Muse Jewelry Heather Askinosie, aventurine comes from the Italian words a venture, which means “by chance.” She adds that its reputation for being a stone of chance has given way to aventurine’s nickname, “the Gambler’s Stone.”

“Aventurine is believed to be the luckiest stone in all games of chance. Thought to be 2.5 million years old, it has seen many uses,” Askinosie tells mbg. For instance, Ethiopian cultures used aventurine to make different kinds of tools, including axes. Ancient Tibetans often adorned their statues’ eyes with aventurine because they believed it would increase its powers, she explains.

How to use green aventurine:

Keep it on you.

While you can certainly keep green aventurine somewhere in your home, Askinosie says this one can have stronger effects when you interact with it directly and keep it on you during the day. “Carrying it with you, having it in your bra or pocket, or wearing it as jewelry forms a different type of relationship with your crystal than it simply being in your space,” she explains.

For a quick and easy practice you can do in the morning with your green aventurine, hold it and say, “I am lucky,” three times, Askinosie suggests. “Carry it in your pocket or purse throughout the day, and squeeze it, knowing that luck is on your side. Whenever your aventurine is with you, expect the best outcome in every situation,” she adds.
