I still like to include my citrine crystals when I clear my stones as unless the stone is 100% pure citrine, any clear quartz patches in the tumbled stone or citrine point can still accumulate negative energy. Please read the article in our previous newsletter for many other suggestions.Ĭitrine is a great stone as it transutes negative energy without needing clearing. Over time however, many stones will obviously begin to fade their vibrant colors away and so sunlight is not my preferred method. Since sunlight is an effective way to clear crystals, some still put their crystals in sunlight since only a few hours or a day does not make that big of a difference. It sometimes takes only a few weeks to visibly see the difference so few would dispute this fact. I think that almost everyone agrees that many colorful crystals will fade in the sunlight.

We enjoy customer questions and are always happy to reply and share the information that we can provide.Īs far as clearing crystals, this is a very popular question and we did a feature article on this in our last newsletter. We too share your enthusiasm about crystals and there is always more to learn. I tend to ask a lot of questions, and I hope that you do not find me overwhelming. Adler, thank you for your time and consideration of my questions. Do you have knowledge of this point, and would you be inclined to explain? This puzzles me because according to the above statements they are opposite in nature. Further, I read that these two stones may combine harmoniously with each other. I read that Aqua Aura is akin to the element of water, and that Citrine is akin to the element of fire. Personally, I have an affinity for Aqua Aura quartz as well, and have ordered an Aqua Aura Star of David Pendant.

Do you agree? May I consider the necklace as true Citrine?Ĥ. They added that Citrine, regardless of whether it occurred naturally or synthetically is made up of the same chemical composition and possesses the same metaphysical properties. I was told by them that almost all Citrine on the market is heat-treated Amethyst, including the necklace that I purchased.

I ordered a Citrine chip necklace from another outfit at the same time that I ordered these merkaba stars. Do you concur with this information? How would you recommend one to “clear” a crystal - Citrine or other?ģ. One of the reasons that I am interested in Citrine is because I have read that it is one the only two minerals on the planet that does not hold or accumulate negative energy, but dissipates and transmutes it, and hence it never needs clearing or cleansing. Is this a subject of divided views, or is fading irrelevant? Does fading affect the metaphysical or healing properties and potency of the crystals?Ģ. According to what I have read on-line from another source, as well as from your message - colored crystals may fade in sunlight. I read in a book entitled “Illustrated Guide to Crystals” by Judy Hall that all crystals can be energetically cleansed by either placing in a bowl of sea salt for several hours, or bathing in sunlight for several hours. If you do not mind, I would like to ask you several more questions on the subject. I am new to the concept of healing crystals, having recently been turned onto it by a friend. I am looking forward to receiving the Merkaba crystals.
