Citrine

Its pale yellow color is what gives it its name, Citrine, coming from the French citron, meaning lemon. But apart from its literal meaning, Citrine has a deep spiritual meaning, too.

The spiritual meaning of Citrine is its yellow hues symbolizing the spiritual qualities of joy, abundance, and transmutation.

Like a refreshing glass of lemonade, Citrine can bring a quick, energetic pick-me-up to those who use it with diligence and respect.

In times of low to moderate stress, Citrine is a perfect ally for realigning your energies back into balance. In contrast, other, more powerful crystals may be necessary for more profound healings.

But do not let that discourage you from its importance, for Citrine knows that it is in these first initial moments of confusion and dismay where we can most easily recalibrate our energies and move back onto our true paths.

Citrine is also known as the Merchant’s Stone, due to its ability to transmute energies quickly and easily, facilitating transfers of energy from one to another.

For those involved in business ventures, particularly new business ventures with new clients or partners, Citrine can be an excellent tool to have on hand, whether in one’s pocket or purse, to increase the flow of money-based energy from one hand to another.

One can place the stone in parts of one’s house where the money is kept to safeguard it and keep its energetic qualities pure.

Citrine also represents spiritual joy since it spreads positive, energetic light around its aura and is said to be one of only two crystals which do not need to be recharged or purified.

With this in mind, you can use it as an excellent tool to bring positive energies to areas where you might have or suspect to have negative energies, spirits, or even ghosts.

By leaving the Citrine crystal in these spaces, it attracts the negative energies into its aura and transmutes them into positive, joyful energies once more.

Citrine, being a yellow crystal, also symbolizes the summer months and the sun’s rays.
