Aventurine benefits the thymus gland and nervous system. It balances blood pressure and stimulates the metabolism, lowering cholesterol. Aventurine has an anti-inflammatory effect and eases skin eruptions, allergies, migraines, and soothes the eyes. It heals lungs, sinuses, heart, muscular and urogenital systems. It’s a go-to stone for financial success, and luck of all kinds — some people keep a piece of Green Aventurine with them whenever they need to take on financial challenges: a job interview, a tax audit, or even just paying the bills. In magic, carrying or wearing aventurine can help you remember your career and financial goals — and, in the process, do the things necessary to work toward them.
This stone encourages practicality (something that Virgo’s ruling planet, Mercury, demands) so working with Green Aventurine while the Moon is in Virgo can be very helpful. Organization, schedules, and routines are important during the Virgo Moon, but not if they over-complicate things. Green Aventurine helps you be mindful about what’s helping you be more successful and what’s just getting in the way.
Green Aventurine resonates with the energy of growth and expansion, so it’s a perfect companion for the Waxing Crescent Moon phase. Work with this stone when you want to add a little cosmic fertilizer to the intention seeds you planted during the previous New Moon.
