Green adventurine connects to our heart chakra, bringing growth and vitality to this sacred area. Helps instil a positive, optimistic attitude to life and encourages us to embrace change, non-attachment, and development, and to see that 'change can only lead to good'.

Subhamoy Das writes that 'the son of Shiva and Parvati, Ganesha has an elephantine countenance with a curved trunk and big ears, and a huge pot-bellied body of a human being. He is the Lord of success and destroyer of obstacles. He is also worshipped as the god of education, knowledge, wisdom and wealth. In fact, Ganesha is one of the five prime Hindu deities, Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva and Durga being the other four. Ganesha's head symbolises the Atman or the soul, which is the ultimate supreme reality of human existence, and his human body signifies Maya or the earthly existence of human beings. The elephant head denotes wisdom, and its trunk represents Om, the sound symbol of cosmic reality. In his upper right hand, Ganesha holds a goad, which helps him propel mankind forward on the eternal path and remove obstacles. The noose in Ganesha's left hand is a gentle implement to capture all difficulties.'

Ganesh can also be worked with when starting a new enterprise or business, or to remove obstacles for more established companies.

It is said that we can invoke the spirit and wisdom of Ganesh by whispering in his ear, and he will bestow prosperity.
