AVENTURINE: is a translucent to opaque variety of Quartz, distinguishable by its inclusions of shiny minerals (usually mica or hematite) that give the stone a sparkling effect known as 'aventurescence'. It derives its name from the Italian term "a ventura," which means "by chance". Aventurine ranges in color from green, peach, brown, blue and a creamy green.
Green Aventurine is the star sign for Libra and the planetary stone of Taurus. Legends say that it is an all-purpose healer, used to reduce stress, develop confidence, imagination and improve prosperity. A story from ancient Tibet says that Aventurine was used to improve near-sightedness and to increase the wearer's creativity. Many believe that Aventurine has the capacity to calm a troubled spirit and bring about inner peace.
