So far we have discussed a lot about Citrine with our GEMS November series. Though I’m not a strong believer of metaphysical properties of a stone… I always saw it for inspiration, reference and entertainment puprpose sometimes.

Here I’m sharing a few facs I found after my recent reserach :-). These include many interesting beliefs of people on Citrine.. representing a warming and energizing stone.. with the powers of the Sun.

Mental healing properties

• Citrine is considered to be a self-esteem stone with powers to heal the mind’s feelings of inadequacy and it helps handling negative criticism.
• It is also used as energizing stone against power issues of willpower, optimism, confidence and self-discipline.
• Some people believe it has ability to awaken the mind, create clarity and increase knowledge of the self.
• Citrine dissipates negative energies of all kinds. It never needs any cleansing, as it does not retain any negative energies from its surroundings

Physical properties

• Citrine acts as an antioxidant, helping counteract the effects of radiation and allergies, working on the second (sacral) and third (solar plexus) chakras.
• It is also used to help maintain the health of the digestive, circulatory, and urinary system.
• It is believed to have powers for regenerating body tissues.

Symbolic representation

• Generally the 13th year wedding anniversary is represented by Citrine.
• In ancient times, people carried Citrine was as a protection against snake venom and evil thoughts.
• Citrine is known as the “success stone” because it promotes success, prosperity, and abundance. It particularly promotes success in business, earning it another nickname, “merchant’s stone”.
• It is said to bring business if put in the cashbox of a shop or carried.

So thats all on metaphysical and healing properties of Citrine I explored. If you wanna share more info on the same.. please comment about it.
