Aventurine: Purifying the Physical Body

We left the clouds behind and entered an immense field of short grass. "In this field you will have the opportunity to attain greater wellness on all levels. Here you may ask for whatever you need to gain this wellness, and the answer will be immediately and clearly given," explained the Guardian of Lavender.

We walked across the field, covering what seemed to be a great distance. With the ground still firm under our feet, we entered an ocean of waist-deep green mist, which moved in rhythmic waves. These waves flowed back and forth, all around and through us. The energy propelling them was very great, and they stirred and soothed us. 

Lavender spoke again: "We will walk toward the source of this energy. The closer we get, the nearer you will come to the truth about yourself and what you have done to make yourself who you are in a physical sense. Indeed, your thoughts, attitudes and concepts of life, your feelings and the way you express them, and, yes, your memories too each influence the shape and stature of your physical self."

We neared a platform on which a man sat cross-legged, as if in meditation. It was from him that the waves of green energy were emanating. The man's eyes were closed and his hands rested comfortably in his lap. His round form reminded me of images of the Buddha. His skin was the color of Dark Green Aventurine and his clothing that of Light Green Aventurine. 

"I would like to introduce you to the Guardian of Aventurine," said Lavender.

The Guardian slowly opened his eyes, and the whole land seemed to brighten. The white of his eyes contrasted sharply with his dark green skin, light green irises, and dark green pupils. He gazed at us, seeming to look through us, knowing exactly what we needed and exactly what he could give. 

Then the waves of energy flowing from his being reversed direction and receded into him. He seemed to be gathering his energy as the waves compressed more tightly into his aura. The Guardian beckoned us to come closer and sit in a circle before him. He and the Guardian of Lavender nodded to each other respectfully, and then we all bid Lavender farewell. 

The Guardian of Aventurine rose from his platform and joined us on the grass, completing our circle. Once seated, he used his hands to create an opening in the ground in the center of our group.

The Great Awakening

Now you can see into the physical universe. There is your planet Earth. The continent you call Africa is now bathing in the sunlight. 

If you look at this planet with the eyes of knowingness, you will see that all over the Earth people are ready for an awakening. It is the awakening of the true Self. Some will call it greater spirituality, enlightenment, or Self-awareness. Some will call it a heightened sensitivity. And some will call it God's love shining upon them. Regardless of its name, it will be characterized by a renewed sense of Spirit and a greater understanding of all life, including oneself and one's relationship with God. 

I am here to help prepare individuals for this great awakening. My purpose is to heal the physical body, especially the most vital organs--for when the body is no longer ailing, one's attention can focus more clearly on this awakening. 

This is my function for the people of Earth. On some other planets, the people have already experienced this quantum leap. There I am used for many other purposes and in ways similar to those in which the people of Earth will one day use me.

Aventurine has been a part of the planet for a long time. It did not form when the planet formed; instead, it evolved as the planet evolved. As the Earth prepared itself for human life, I was also prepared.  

Expelling Disharmony

To understand my purpose, you must know how I work. You must also grasp the concept of vibratory rates. Unfortunately, the English language has limited means for describing the many and various forms of nonphysical emanations. In the context in which I will be using the term "vibratory rate," it has essentially the same meaning as the words "energy" and "frequency." 

The Earth planet has two basic varieties of green Aventurine: Light Green and Dark Green. We will limit our discussion to these two varieties, for what good would it do to learn about what exists in other places? The light green variety has few or no dark green flecks. The dark green variety is actually Light Green Aventurine so infused with flecks or particles of flecks that it appears dark green. Therefore, the light green variety that contains no flecks is essentially composed of one vibratory rate, and the dark green variety is essentially composed of two: the light green vibratory rate and the vibratory rate of the flecks. 

Both the light and dark green vibratory rates focus their effects on organs. The light green uplifts and strengthens an organ by encouraging its healthiest cells to distribute their vitality throughout the organ. The dark green flecks expel the organ's low and disharmonious energies. 

When either Light or Dark Green Aventurine spheres are worn around the neck, the Aventurine's vibratory rate fills the wearer's aura and enters the body through the breath. As with anything inhaled, the Aventurine vibratory rate first enters the lungs, then the blood stream, and then every cell in the body. This is how the whole body becomes introduced to Aventurine vibratory rate.

Although the "molecules" of Aventurine vibratory rate are distributed to every cell in the body, they maintain communication with each other. When enough Aventurine has permeated the body, it detects the organ with the greatest disharmony. When this occurs, all the Aventurine vibratory rate already in the body, plus any more that is breathed in, surrounds and begins to enter that organ. Once any amount of Aventurine vibratory rate--no matter how small--enters the target organ, it opens the door for more to enter. Then it gradually distributes itself as evenly as possible throughout the organ. 

What happens next depends on the variety of Aventurine being used. If a Light Green Aventurine necklace is worn, its effects will be those of the light green vibration--that is, it will encourage the organ's healthiest cells to distribute their vitality throughout the organ. 

You see, no organ has a homogenous vibratory rate. There are always some cells or groups of cells that have a higher vibratory rate than others. Cells with low vibratory rates are more susceptible to disease; indeed, they can act as the doors through which disease enters an organ. Fortunately, even diseased organs usually contain some healthy, vibrant cells. Light Green Aventurine focuses its vibratory rate on the healthiest of these cells. This compels them to spread their healthy vibratory rate to their adjacent cells, which in turn spread this vitality to their adjacent cells. As a result, the entire organ gradually gains more vitality and strength. 

If a Dark Green Aventurine necklace is worn, its primary effects will be those of its dark green vibration--that is, it will expel the organ's low and disharmonious vibratory rates. As more and more dark green vibration enters the organ, disease and disharmony will have no choice but to exit. In Dark Green Aventurine, the light green component takes on a supporting role: it helps make the organ more vital so it can more easily throw off the disharmony being expelled by the dark green vibration. 

Of the two types of Aventurine, Dark Green Aventurine can assist an individual most profoundly. Among other reasons, this is because the Dark Green Aventurine offers the effects of both the light and dark green vibrations. In other words, Dark Green Aventurine not only strengthens an organ, it actually drives out the organ's disharmony and disease. 

With both types of Aventurine, when the target organ is no longer the most disharmonious organ in the body, the Aventurine vibratory rate slowly leaves the organ. Then the Aventurine finds the next organ with the greatest degree of disharmony and begins working on that organ. The Aventurine continues this process for as long as it is worn. 

If Aventurine is worn long enough, it's possible that every organ will be treated. It is also possible that the original organ I worked on will again receive my attention. The longer I am worn, the stronger and healthier the organs will become. Naturally, this will lead to a strengthening of the entire body.

The time it takes for Dark Green Aventurine to complete its work will depend on the size and quality of the Aventurine being worn. It will also depend on the degree of toxicity in the organ and the level of overall toxicity in the body. 

Neutralizing Disharmony 

When Dark Green Aventurine expels disharmonious energy from an organ, a small amount of this disharmony is neutralized by the Aventurine's light green vibration. It is then up to the body to eliminate the rest--that is, unless Emerald is also worn around the neck.  

Emerald carries the green ray. The green ray is the aspect of the life force that focuses on raising the vibratory rate of the physical body. Aventurine encourages the body to relax and open itself to the green ray. When Emerald is worn with Dark Green Aventurine, the Aventurine focuses the Emerald's green ray on the target organ. The green ray then neutralizes much of the disharmony being expelled from the organ by the Aventurine. In this way, Emerald relieves the body of the burden of eliminating most of this disharmony. If Emerald is worn with the Aventurine, the time it takes for the Aventurine to complete its work may be cut in half.

Because Dark Green Aventurine and Emerald work so powerfully together, I strongly recommend that people with diseased organs wear them together. Ideal would be a necklace of high-quality Dark Green Aventurine spheres and another necklace containing Emerald in rounded form. The gemstones' action should be supported with other therapies that boost the vitality of the entire body and support the eliminative organs, so the disharmony can exit the body more easily. 

One should continue to wear the Aventurine and Emerald, even if it appears that a healing has taken place. You see, once the vibratory rate of a disease has entered a body, it often lingers--sometimes for the rest of the person's life--even after the overt manifestation of the disease has been cleared.

Releasing Drug Residues

Light Green Aventurine has a special role to play on your planet, where so much of your medicine is chemical.

The physical body knows how to rid itself of most toxic foreign substances. Many of these substances will cause diarrhea or vomiting as part of the body's effort to force them out. However, when the foreign substance is not overtly toxic (as in the case of most drugs and some chemicals), the body doesn't know how to deal with it. It doesn't know how to pass the substance through the system in order to excrete it. This is especially true for certain drugs that are actually designed to be in harmony with the body and to have a specific effect on it; the body becomes confused about how to handle them.

When the body doesn't know how to get rid of a drug (or, in some cases, its residue), it often encapsulates and isolates the drug after it has completed its work. More specifically, if a drug was targeted at a specific organ, the body's protective mechanism encapsulates what is left of the drug in that organ to protect the rest of the body from the drug's toxicity. 

I find it interesting that the pharmacologists and physicians of Earth who design drugs have perfected a healing system that is only halfway effective. They are ignorant--or choose to be ignorant--of the fact that although the drug may appear to be metabolized, some of the drug and/or its vibratory rate often remain in the body.

If the organ with the encapsulated drug is the same organ being targeted by a Dark Green Aventurine necklace, the Aventurine vibratory rate will infiltrate the organ. It may then recognize these drug residues as disharmony and work to loosen and dispel them from the organ.

Now, if the organ has been accumulating drugs for years, a potentially serious situation may arise when the Aventurine starts moving these drugs and their energies out into the body. The drugs and/or their vibratory rates will suddenly start circulating in the body, and the body will not know how to remove them. 

In this case, wearing Light Green Aventurine--especially if it contains some dark green flecks--is more appropriate than wearing Dark Green Aventurine. This is because the light green variety focuses more on uplifting the organ and loosening disharmonious energies than on dispelling those energies. Thus, the release of toxic energies into the body will be more gradual, and the body won't be overwhelmed by them.

The process of moving drugs and their energies out of the body can be greatly enhanced if Emerald is worn with the Light Green Aventurine. To my knowledge, Emerald works only on natural toxicity--that is, the toxicity produced by a living organism. Therefore, the Emerald won't disintegrate the vibratory rate of the drugs themselves; instead, it will enhance the overall healing process by disintegrating the disharmony created in the body by the drugs' presence. 

Wearing the Light Green Aventurine and Emerald together will uplift the organ and encourage its surrounding area to become less disharmonious. This will help the organ, the area, and the whole body become stronger and more able to deal with the released encapsulations of toxicity.

Gemstone Therapy

Where gemstone therapy clinics exist, a patient's time is respected. Patients receive attention as soon as they walk in the door and identify themselves to an assistant. The assistant then refers to the patient's file and gives the patient preliminary gemstones to wear. These preliminary gemstones are ordered by the gemstone therapist to prepare the patient for treatment. This practice also shows respect for the time of the therapist, who is in great demand. This demand will be created on Earth as well, because gemstone therapy works. 

On an energetic level, gemstones work much better than most other medicines. One reason is that their vibratory rates remain constant. In contrast, if you take an aspirin or an herb, its vibratory rate changes as soon as it touches the tongue. Also, gemstones provide their wearers with a steady supply of the gems' healing energies. Perhaps most important, as a gemstone gets to know its wearer's aura, it continually adjusts and fine-tunes its actions to adapt to changes in the wearer. 

However, only the highest quality gemstones are truly healing. Gemstones of lesser quality have significantly less, if any, therapeutic effect—and, indeed, can even have a detrimental effect on their users. Only therapeutic-quality gemstones allow the full range of a gemstone’s healing properties to be expressed, and they alone should be used for the purposes and benefits the Gemstone Guardians describe.

For every gemstone there is a different set of criteria that makes that gem therapeutic. The characteristics that make Aventurine spheres therapeutic, for example, will not apply to other gemstones.

Information about the true purposes of gemstones is available to all. It is kept in libraries within the inner planes or is periodically given by the Gemstone Guardians in lectures such as this one. Those who wish to learn more about gemstones should study in these libraries or attend these lectures. I prefer not to be constantly interrupted with questions, so that I can keep my attention focused on maintaining and enlivening the flow of energy to all the Aventurine in existence. 

Michael, to assist in my mission you must share the information I have given you. If information about a gemstone is given by its Guardian, you can be sure that it is as current and correct as possible for the conditions and consciousness of a particular time and place. 

In the future, I will assist the people of Earth in greater ways than you can now imagine. However, I will not give you this information until you are ready. Look not to the gifts of the future. Enjoy and appreciate the value of the gifts you have today. Indeed, they are more valuable to you than any future gift, which you can neither use nor fully appreciate. 

You, the people of Earth, are in the process of taking one of the greatest steps in your history. Use the tools that are already available to you to help you take this leap. These tools are gifts. They have already been given. It is up to each individual to unwrap and accept them. 

It seems most appropriate that the next Guardian you meet will be the one in charge of Emerald, for we work so closely together.

May the blessings be!

The Guardian of Aventurine rose and returned to his platform. He sat down and closed his eyes, and once again the waves of green energy began to flow from his being. 

I glanced down at our planet through the opening that the Guardian had made in the ground. His wave emanations poured through this opening and surrounded the Earth, touching and enlivening all the Aventurine on the planet. As my attention followed these waves, I realized that I too was moving closer to the Earth. In the next moment, I regained the awareness of my physical body. I opened my eyes just as Michael was opening his. We smiled at each other, our hearts full of gratitude for the knowledge unfolding before us.
