Some facts about Amber Citrine:

Citrine is one of the most valuable forms of quartz. Amber Citrine is a color variant of Citrine. The most common use is as a gem by jewelers but is also valuable to mineral collectors. Citrine is transparent to translucent and yellow to gold-brown in color with a vitreous luster. The name citrine is derived from the old French word for lemon, citrin. Its color comes from the presence of Iron impurities within the crystal. There are few references in history to Citrine, perhaps because of the stone's rarity. The first occurrences seem to be the use of Citrine by Romans for intaglio and cabochon in the first centuries after the birth of Christ. The Naphtali tribe of Israel is associated with Citrine. During the Romantic Period of history (1837-1860), Citrine saw increased use as a gemstone in jewelry.

Metaphysical Properties:

The spiritual realm of crystal use is one ruled by positive and negative energies that spiritualists believe to emanate from the crystals and that they gained while being formed in the Earth’s crust. They consider Citrine’s energy is helpful in clearing and protecting the spirit and mind and bringing about mental healing and angelic communication. The stone is believed to dissipate, transform and transmute negative energy. Protection According to healers, Citrine’s use as a stone of self-esteem (see mental healing) relates to its power as an instrument for protection. When self-esteem is low, it is often a result of someone else’s abuse of mental or psychic power and because it is believed to dissipate negative energy, Citrine is effective. They believe Citrine can be used to bolster personal power and protect against this type of abuse. Inner Knowledge Spiritualists credit Citrine with the power to open up channels into the inner self and the soul. It brings knowledge of the ego, the soul and can result in a more grounded presence in life. They recommend the stone to men and women who seem to have lost their own will in relationships, business and life. Further, the stone will communicate survival instincts from the soul to the ego.
