Heat treated amethyst or grey smoky quartz. Effective against depression, alcohol abuse, repressed childhood hurts. Breaks cycles of worry or guilt. Increases sales, attract customers and encourages right choices in financial speculation. Helps when struggling with ideas or public speaking (place at solar plexus). Personally given it is a crystal changed by man I find it great for working with not being accepted for who you are being being made to change to suit other people's expectations - a square peg in the round hole, etc. May help with pancreas, liver, spleen, spine, exhaustion, metabolism.

Smoky Citrine

Enhances metaphysical attributes, grounding them into reality. Removes blocks from your spiritual path. Doesn't hold negativity so doesn't require cleansing. Re-frames vows like celibacy & poverty - removes detrimental beliefs from the past. Purifies etheric blueprint & aligns solar plexus to the earth chakra so you can move out of old environments into expansion. Can sometimes be smoky lemon quartz where the yellow is from sulphur inclusions.

Ametrine (Amethyst + Citrine)

Ametrine calms the mind by clearing stress and tension from the head. Balances and soothes emotions and relieves depression. Overcomes prejudice by enhancing compatibility and acceptance of others. Stimulates creativity and supports taking control of one s own life. Strengthens concentration, bringing clarity, and harmonising perception and action. Instigates change and eases transition. Ametrine strengthens the immune system and aids the autonomic nervous system. It heals physical, mental and emotional exhaustion. Alleviates allergies and digestive disorders.

Kundalini Citrine (Kundalini Quartz)

• This citrine draws in abundance and passion at all level. Its form raises the Kundalini energy up the chakra chord from Base to Crown, cleansing as it opens. It also opens chakras above Crown.
• If you hold kundalini quartz over your head it creates intense co-creation opening to the heart of Creation. If yours is smoky-citrine in colour then the smoky helps this ground into reality. It may unblock reproductive system and improve libido.
• Kundalini Quartz can be too intense and de-stabilising if your energy field is not already in a good state.
• Do not use if you are pregnant or suspect you are.
• Use for Tantric practices.

Special Notes

• Natural ones are rare - check that yellow gems are really citrine and not topaz or heated treated amethyst
• They also are often smoky-yellow or green-yellow.
• Note: Citrine forms as cathedral clusters and points:All Brazilian mining companies are advising that citrine in geodes are never natural but heat treated.
  • if in the same veins as amethyst are coloured by iron and radiation with Fe3+ causing yellow colour.
  • if in same veins as smoky quartz - usually a yellow-smoky colour or yellow-green are coloured by aluminium trace elements and radiation.
• • We have seen natural citrine in caves but they were tiny crystals and were actually clear quartz over a yellow layer of agate.
• Ametrine is where citrine and amethyst are combined.
• CARE - citrine fades in the sun from radiation.

• Most citrine sold in crystal stores is burnt-yellow, yellow-orange, brown clusters that are heat treated amethyst - they therefore do not work energetically like citrine in their current form - see below.
• Most golden topaz sold in jewellery is actually heated citrine.
• Other yellow quartz crystals maybe:
  • Golden Healer quartz - if the yellow is a coating on the outside - its a very pale bright lemon yellow colour;
  • Lemon Quartz which is coloured by sulphur.
  • Limonite in Quartz
