Modern Natura Citrine gemstone bracelet

Citrine is a mysterious and particularly beautiful gemstone. Besides its impressive, charismatic look, it’s often used for mood swings. It also has a detoxifying function in the body.

The name citrine is derived from Latin. Citrus for lemon refers to the beautiful lemon-yellow color. However, the shade can vary. Not its effect. From a delicate green-yellow it can also look orange to brown-orange. Deposits are found in Asia, South America, and Europe. It can also be found in Brazil and Russia.

Citrine contributes to clarity of thought. It’s said to help with inner restlessness and support good digestion. It’s also praised as a companion for people who struggle to cope with everyday life and tend toward depressive moods. Light and a wonderful positive energy emanate from it and are said to transfer to the wearer. The gemstone can strengthen the organism. Part of the gained energy benefits the thyroid. Citrine is also said to affect hair growth. Citrine also has an effect on the mind and the emotional level of its wearer. During the day it absorbs the sun’s rays and passes them on into the human soul. This leads to a special feeling of happiness and rebuilds a person’s aura if it has been lost. This can happen through difficult circumstances and a life marked by little happiness. A person understands themselves as a being of first instance. Temptations of everyday life are hard to resist and even harder to overlook. Working life is often full of stress. Relationships can trigger stress. People then often feel overwhelmed. Mind and soul can fall out of rhythm. When this happens, mood can lead to a discoloration of emotional and mental feelings. To regain joy in life. To be aware of evolution—citrine can be a valuable companion for that. Every single day anew.

When winter days get shorter and the sun’s light doesn’t shine as long, this gemstone can help its wearer face this challenge better. Thoughts, often focused on the past, are brought back into the present. Being and staying positive, thinking clearly and cognitively, not losing yourself in infinity—that is this gemstone’s task. Citrine is a composer of life. It manages to compress souls again and let your own aura shine.

In principle, every citrine is a heat-treated amethyst. The only difference is whether the heat came from nature or from human processing. Citrine (heated) is standard in the trade and not a sign of lower quality. 99.9% of all citrines on the market are heat-treated or otherwise irradiated in the gemstone jewelry sector (rings) (e.g., UV, microwaves, …). The designation and declaration as citrine is permitted and correct according to CIBJO (Confédération Internationale de la Bijouterie, Joaillerie, Orfèvrerie, des Diamantes, Perles et Pierres; in German “Die Internationale Vereinigung Schmuck, Silberwaren, Diamanten, Perlen und Steine”). There are no natural citrine druses. There are natural citrines (which, by the way, also formed from amethyst and naturally received heat), but these stones are mostly from Africa, very rare, expensive, and not as attractive.

In astrology, citrine is associated with the solar plexus. But it’s helpful for all zodiac signs. People born under Gemini, Virgo, or Leo benefit especially. Everyone else enjoys a similar effect when wearing this gemstone. So all zodiac signs benefit from the almost magical power of this gemstone.

Please note: Each stone is unique and one of a kind. The images may therefore vary.
