Blue Aventurine can help with addictions, large and small, by allowing spiritual energies to come into the Third-Eye and Throat Chakras, to be processed by the subconscious mind. This action enables one to understand that the addiction is a symptom of a deeper problem, and that it is an attempt to fill a void better soothed by spiritual development.

Blue Aventurine can be used to help overcome selfishness, childishness, and passive-aggression. Blue Aventurine is helpful to those who find themselves stuck in an immature state of development, by clearing old, stagnant energies, and opening one up to inner growth and spiritual work.

Blue Aventurine helps to maintain inner peace despite chaos happening in one‘s environment. Meditating with Blue Aventurine can help one to develop and work with intuition and empathy, and to explore psychic abilities that may have been repressed in the past. Placing Blue Aventurine in a pillowcase for weeks or even months can allow it to slowly pass its higher vibrations into the subconscious mind of the user.

Blue Aventurine ameliorates pain and chronic stiffness, and may help in lessening muscle twitches, spasms and facial tics. It assists in calming hyperactivity, and enhances mental focus and concentration.

This crystal is beneficial in overcoming insomnia, lessens migraines and headaches, and aids the eyesight. It has a cooling effect and reduces fever; it is believed to relieve sinus problems, allergies, colds, coughs and congestion.

Blue Aventurine is useful in balancing hormones, especially for women, and supports healthy blood, and blood oxygenation. It reinforces venous and arterial walls, and is thought to strengthen the respiratory and circulatory systems of “blue babies.”
