ORIGINS OF THE MINERAL
We will always associate the word "citrine" with that of "lemon" which has the same Latin origin, and therefore with everything linked to this citrus fruit: vitamin C, joy, good humor... In the 16th century, this term designated lots of yellow colored stones. Citrine belongs to the quartz family and closely resembles rock crystal, except for the color due to the presence of iron. But it is necessary to differentiate this so-called “natural” citrine, often rare, expensive and originating from Brazil, Madagascar or South-West Africa, from “heated” citrine which is none other than an amethyst heated to 450 degrees.
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
In general, heated citrine has a punctual action while natural citrine will act in depth and in the long term. Heated citrine helps revive the body's vital energy, but also heals the nervous and digestive systems (which are always linked).
Natural citrine is the stone of subtle balance inside the body, and especially the digestive system. It is recommended for people who are active and invigorated, because it is gentler than heated citrine, which is better suited to shy people.
ENERGY PROPERTIES
Heated citrine is associated with heat and the sun, and will bring cheerfulness, success, prosperity... It has been called the "merchants' stone", because it promotes commercial and financial success. This stone can heal the 3rd chakra and the solar plexus (the "me", self-confidence...) and it will therefore be perfect for people suffering from shyness, lack of confidence... Its action will be quite punctual, but will provide valuable help during a difficult time.
Natural citrine, on the contrary, will allow deeper questions to be resolved over a longer period of time. It will be perfect for people full of energy, but who experience chronic nervous and digestive imbalances. It will help regulate the “highs” and “lows” and provide beneficial consistency.
PRACTICAL
Heated citrine will be used for occasional crises and timid people wishing to succeed. We think of adolescents or young adults, women and men who are ambitious, but held back by their shyness or lack of confidence.
Natural citrine will rather be used for long-term treatments and intended more for the internal functioning of the individual (for discreet people wishing to rebalance themselves in depth).
Energetic people suffering from digestive disorders can be advised to infuse natural citrine in a glass of water overnight, and to drink it early in the morning.
We must consider the two citrines as suns: one bright, but brief, and the other discreet, but constant. In both cases, treatments with meditation, accompanied by mantras and the stone placed on the 3rd chakra will be entirely indicated.
