Carol and I were at a rock and gem show in a little town in Washington state a few weeks ago, and we came across Green Selenite, which I had never heard of. Apparently, it comes from one location in Australia, near a copper mine that leached into a selenite deposit and changed it’s color. So it’s not strictly natural, but it sure is beautiful. It comes in the green and white combo pictured here, and also a solid green color, with the distinctive shape of selenite crystals.
I looked it up on the web and here’s what I found regarding it’s metaphysical properties:
“Green Selenite has a lovely friendly vibration…that will help anyone who wants to be able to make friends with others. It is also a stone that will help you to make choices, and to adapt to change. These green crystals vibrate within all of the chakras from the heart chakra up, but their main action is within the heart chakra and thymus chakra. They have a vibration that is very similar to White Selenite…but the addition of the copper to these stones makes the Green Selenite crystals have some different metaphysical properties.
It is a lovely stone to aid you to create a sense of community. They have a strong energy within the heart chakra… and the higher heart chakra… that encourages compassion and forgiveness.
Green Selenite is said to bring harmony between people after rifts have caused them to become parted. It helps you to feel good about yourself and aids you to always work towards the highest good of yourself, and others.
They have a high vibration, and aid you to work towards your personal highest good. It is a smooth tranquil vibration, and this is a helpful energy to aid you to make friends with other people. This is especially helpful if you want to deal with people who are having difficulties in their life… and need someone to take a personal interest in them.”

I like the fact that this crystal works on the higher heart (thymus) chakra. We need more compassion and forgiveness in the world, and the higher heart chakra (located between the 4th and 5th chakras) is the unconditional love chakra. If you ever come across Green Selenite, buy yourself a chunk!
