One Way to Work with the Healing Properties of Orange Aventurine:
If something is troubling you or weighing on your mind, hold your Orange Aventurine stone in your hands, take a few deep breaths, and allow any thoughts pertaining to the situation to flow through your mind. Let these thoughts flow for about 30-60 seconds and then write in your journal or on a scrap piece of paper all of the things that popped into your head. Let the energy of the Orange Aventurine support you as you clear out the mental clutter that may be preventing you from seeing clearly or determining the best way forward.
After jotting down everything you can think of, take a few moments to hold your stone again and reflect on what you’ve written. Hold the intention to release the thoughts that are just mental clutter and gain insight about the way forward from the thoughts that remain.

My necklace with orange aventurine crystals on it cut to twi pieces in a very weird way, so I was wondering what it means. Is it a good sign or a bad sign?
I’m not entirely sure what you mean by that, I think it must have been the jeweler’s design if it was cut intentionally. But that’s neither good nor bad. As long as it’s something that you enjoy and feel positive about you should have no problems working with it! <3 Crystal Blessings
My orange Aventurine seems to have gotten lighter in color a few weeks after I got it. It has not been in the sunlight or subjected to any chemicals or anything, it lives in my pocket every day.
Any thoughts of why it would change colors?
Hi Matt! Although prolonged sunlight and soaking in water can indeed cause fading and damage to the stone, it sounds like this is not the issue for you. Most market available stones are buffed with oils or polish in order to enhance the appearance of the stone and give it a fine finish, its possible with the prolonged use of being in your pocket those “enhancers” are rubbing off which is causing the faded appearance. So sorry your aventurine is fading, but as long as the energy of the stone still feels good to you, then you can continue working with the crystal. Hope that helps! Crystal Blessings! <3
