Citrine is a yellow quartz that has been associated for centuries as possessing the healing properties of the sun, but it can also be greenish-yellow, brownish-yellow, or orange. The mineral is often found in association with amethyst, but it is much rarer than its purple cousin. Indeed, citrine is made by heat-treating amethyst. Like all quartz, citrine is made of silicon and oxygen atoms arranged in a tetrahedral pattern, essentially a triangular pyramid. Citrine is found in a large number of locations, including France, Britain, Russia, Madagascar, Burma, Spain, U.S., and Brazil. But the crystal—and its purported healing powers—dates back centuries, to the time of the ancient Greeks. Citrine, just like the range of yellow-orange hues it exhibits, emits all the different emotions and energy associated with both colors. The different hues that Citrine showcases are all reminiscent of the sun throughout different times of the year. Its deep orange, almost reddish variety is reminiscent of the sun during sunrise and its warmer, yellow-orange variety looks like the sun as it begins to set during midsummer. Pale yellow Citrine reminds one of the rays of the sun during late spring or early summer, and the pale brown variety is akin to the color of the sun during a fall afternoon as its rays hit the reddish-brown leaves of trees during autumn.
The energy of this mineral is especially applicable to the areas of the solar plexus and the chakras located at the hands and feet. It can be used to gently dissolve negative energies and emotional blockages. It softens negative energy and allows the positive frequencies to enter the realm of affection. It works to dissolve the resultant formations, effects, disorders and disease which a problem has created. Citrine is one of the minerals on the planet which does not hold and accumulate negative energy, but dissipates and transmutes it, working-out problems on both the physical and subtle levels. It, hence never needs clearing or cleansing. The word “citrine” comes from the Greek word meaning citron, as many of the earliest crystals found had a color similar to the citrus fruit of that name. As noted, citrine is formed by heat-treating amethyst, specifically purple amethyst. Heat treating, in relation to minerals, gems, and crystals, refers to the process of enhancing a gemstone to give it a more desirable color or remove its flaws by subjecting it to very high temperatures. Citrine is one of of several Zodiac birthstones associated with Leo, as the sign has a strong affinity with the sun, its planetary ruler. Although, it is also associated with the sign Cancer, as it is a summer stone and as such, it has a strong connection with those born in the summer months. It is also one of the two traditional birthstones of November, the other one being Yellow Topaz.
