What is Citrine?
Citrine is a fascinating gemstone that belongs to the quartz family . As one of the many varieties of quartz, citrine stands out with its characteristic yellow to golden brown hue, which radiates with an almost sunlit glow. This unique color is due to traces of iron in the quartz, which gives it its signature color. Citrine is a yellow, macrocrystalline variety of quartz, and the name refers to the mineral's lemon-yellow color. Most gemstones originate from Brazil.
Where is citrine found?
While citrine can be found naturally in nature, true, natural citrine is a rarity. Many of the citrines we see on the market today are actually the result of heated amethyst . When amethyst is heated, it changes color from purple to the familiar golden hue of citrine. While both stones are beautiful and prized, it is important to distinguish between natural citrine and the heated variety in order to understand their true origin and value.

Physical properties of citrine
A citrine can help you connect with your inner strength and strengthen your belief in yourself. This creates a positive spiral where joy, positivity, motivation and self-confidence naturally thrive and attract even more of the same positive energy. The resulting success and joy will ultimately lead to greater contentment and further strengthen your self-confidence.
Citrine has calming properties that can increase your mental clarity, promote positive thinking, and strengthen your solar plexus chakra. It is a helpful stone for nervousness, depression, stress, and feelings of sadness. Some people even call it the "exam stone" because of its calming effect in stressful situations. Be aware that citrine may fade if exposed to sunlight for extended periods of time.

How does citrine work?
The most important thing to understand about crystals is that there is no set "right" or "wrong" way to use them. The key is to listen to your own intuition. While it may seem obvious to place a crystal on your solar plexus chakra because of its yellow color , you can also use it on other chakra points or simply carry it in your pocket. However, it is worth noting that the closer the crystal is to your skin, the more effectively it can work.
Good rule of thumb
Although they are relatively durable, you should avoid exposing them to direct sunlight as this can cause them to lose their color, so make sure to protect them from bright sunlight.

Origin of Citrine Crystals
Most citrine crystals originate in Brazil and are similar in appearance to other quartz crystals in many ways. However, it is worth noting that many citrine crystals on the market have actually been created by heating amethyst crystals, which changes their color. These are often called burnt citrine crystals, and they have a darker hue compared to naturally occurring citrine crystals.
Nevertheless, it can be challenging to distinguish between the two types. Choosing crystals is always about personal preference and choosing what you are drawn to.
