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.

It 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.

Amber is fossilised tree resin. Even though it is not a crystal formed from rock, it is recognised and used as a crystal.

Amber is a ‘feel good stone’. It is beautifully light and gently warming, and flows through you like a soothing golden (but non-sticky!) syrup. If you are feeing lonely, sad, misunderstood, are struggling with life, or need a winter boost, Amber can bring warmth to belly and heart, and remind you of the abundance of Life.

It is also wonderfully protective, without the heaviness of many protective ‘stones’. This makes it excellent for babies, children and pregnant women. Amber is also a traditional remedy for teething.

Fossil carries the ancient energies of Planet Earth and is gently grounding. It helps us to connect with our deep ancestry, is deeply calming and helps meditation.
