"Seems to me that it all comes down to love and forgiveness," a Christian Southern gentleman dear to my heart once proclaimed. Amen, PawPaw Jack. Aventurine represents the critical meeting of opportunity and release. Don't judge your circumstances now as either good or bad. Surrender your heart to love at this moment. When we align ourselves with our own life force, infinite opportunities open up. Aventurine helps us release patterns of judgement of ourselves and others so that new growth can take place. Pray with creative energy and forgiveness with this accepting mala.
