- Stimulates Chakras: It stimulates the chakras like the sunlight of spring, clearing the mind and stirring the soul to action.
- Transforms Negative Energy: Citrine does not hold or accumulate negative energy, but rather transmutes, dissipates, and grounds it, making it extremely protective for the environment.
- Abundance and Prosperity: Citrine is known as ‘the Merchant’s Stone’ due to its ability to attract wealth and prosperity, success, and all things good. It also encourages generosity and sharing good fortune.
- Creativity and Balance: Citrine is replete with creative energy and can help balance and facilitate energy exchanges within the body.
- Joy and Positivity: The spiritual meaning of Citrine is its yellow hues symbolizing the spiritual qualities of joy, abundance, and transmutation.
- Protection and Healing: Citrine is one of only two crystals on Earth that never needs to be cleared or cleansed. It works out problems on both the physical and subtle levels, transforming negative thoughts and feelings into positive ones1.
Citrine is a transparent, yellow variety of Quartz, ranging in color from pale to golden yellow, honey, or almost brown, and may contain rainbow or sparkle inclusions. It is an excellent crystal to have during the summer months or to carry with you during the non-summer months when we all miss summer’s heightened energy. Citrine can help facilitate prosperous occurrences all year round
