Geological Formation:
Green Amber, like all amber, is formed from fossilized tree resin that has undergone millions of years of polymerization and hardening, often dating back to the Tertiary period (30–90 million years ago). Its unique green color is typically the result of organic matter, plant inclusions, or environmental conditions during formation — such as contact with soil or volcanic ash — which influence its hue. Most natural green amber is found in regions like the Dominican Republic and the Baltic region, where specific geochemical conditions have allowed for this coloration to form naturally. Some green amber on the market is heat-treated or clarified to intensify its green tones.
Feng Shui:
In Feng Shui, Green Amber is associated with the Wood element and the East and Southeast areas of the Bagua map — which govern health, vitality, and prosperity. Placing Green Amber in these zones encourages healing energy, personal growth, and abundance. It is especially effective when used in the living room, bedroom, or meditation space to invite harmony, emotional release, and good fortune. Its organic origins also make it ideal for grounding and reconnecting with nature's cycles in Feng Shui energy balancing.
