Smoky Citrine combines the gentle grounding and releasing energy of Smoky Quartz with the uplifting, happy qualities of Citrine.

Citrine is yellow quartz and it has the energy of sunshine. It is not the hot sun of midday, nor of hot climates. The Spirit of Citrine is similar to that of the morning sun. It is bright and warm and filled with all the hope of a new day.

Citrine brings optimism and a fresh brightness to stale situations, clearing away stagnant energy on all levels, and making way for the new. Work with Citrine when you feel emotionally exhausted, or when you are mentally stuck and need a new vision or viewpoint, or when there is stagnation in the body and the cells or organs need a clear out and some new fresh energy. Use for sluggish digestion, to get things moving. Use when it is time for a detox – physically, mentally or emotionally.

Citrine is also excellent for stimulating tissue growth, so use to help heal a wound, including surgical wounds.

Citrine can be of great help in raising confidence and self esteem, clearing away doubts that may have been implanted by insensitive people, and reminding us of our unique gifts and of who we really.

On a spiritual level, Citine can help us to remember and reconnect with the pure essence that is Divine and to bring it into our everyday lives – becoming the vehicle for ‘God’s Creation’ as we manifest our physical reality. For this reason, Citrine has become knows as a stone for prosperity, and it is often recommended that a piece be carried in the purse, or placed in the till in businesses. But Citrine will not do all the work itself – we need to carry out the physical part of the manifestation.

If you are recovering from physical illness, emotional or mental exhaustion, Citrine can help, when the time is right, to begin to come out into a new phase. Welcome it’s brightness into your life, and ask for help to move forward.

Smoky quartz is transparent to translucent grey/brown/black quartz. It helps to ground in a gentle way, and to accept, enjoy and find pleasure in life and in our physical bodies.

It helps to release negative energies on all levels and replace them with positive energies. It can help with bruising, sprains, infection, physical, emotional and mental pain, stress and confusion. It can assist in going within and releasing old patterns of energy and giving encouragement to go forward to new experiences.

Smoky quartz can be a great help to people who are ungrounded or “spaced out”. Wear in jewellery or carry to help you ground and connect with Mother Earth.

Hold smoky quartz at the end of a stressful day, and thank it for helping to release any unwanted energies.
