Citrine Origins & Interesting Facts
Citrine has been prized by human cultures for thousands of years and has long been associated with sunlight, warmth, prosperity, and vitality. Its name comes from the French word citron, meaning lemon, in reference to its natural yellow hues.
Historically, Citrine was used by ancient civilizations as a protective talisman against negativity and was often carried for confidence and success. In more recent centuries, it became known as the “merchant’s stone,” traditionally kept in cash drawers and places of trade.
Natural Citrine is far less common than most people realize. The majority of Citrine seen on the market today is heat-treated Amethyst or Smoky Quartz, which has been altered to produce yellow to orange tones. Truly natural Citrine is relatively rare and is typically lighter in color, ranging from pale champagne to soft golden hues.
From a metaphysical perspective, Citrine has long been associated with joy, optimism, and life-force energy.
Citrine Geological Information
Citrine is a variety of Quartz (silicon dioxide, SiO₂) colored by trace amounts of iron within its crystal lattice. Its color develops naturally through geological heating and oxidation processes over long periods of time.
Natural Citrine forms in hydrothermal environments, often in association with Amethyst, Smoky Quartz, and Clear Quartz. In some cases, geological heating gradually transforms iron-bearing Quartz into Citrine without sudden thermal shock—this slow process is what differentiates natural Citrine from artificially heated material.

Natural vs Irradiated / Heat-Treated Citrine
Most commercial “Citrine” is heat-treated Amethyst. This material typically displays:
- Deep orange to burnt gold coloration
- Reddish or brownish undertones
- Color concentrated near terminations
Natural Citrine, by contrast, usually shows:
- Even, gentle yellow to champagne coloration
- No reddish or burnt tones
- Subtle, elegant color rather than intense brightness
Bright, saturated gold Citrine is extremely rare in nature. Majestic Quartz supplies natural Citrine wherever specified.
Citrine Crystal Care & Ownership Advice
🧼 Cleaning:
Citrine is water-safe for brief rinsing. Avoid prolonged soaking if fractures are present.
☀️ Light:
Natural Citrine is generally light-stable, though prolonged intense sunlight may soften color over very long periods.
📦 Storage & Display:
Store separately from harder minerals to preserve crystal faces. Citrine is ideal for open display where its energy can radiate freely.
⚠️ Elixir Use:
Only use elixir methods with verified natural Citrine and indirect preparation techniques.
Smoky Quartz
For what and How Does One Use it?
Smoky Quartz is almost the default crystal in any crystal healing layout. It is grounding and protective, and can transform negative energy into positive energy. As one friend put it to me, Smoky Quartz is good for humans, because we are currently quite murky beings ourselves!
It can also be found in Elestial form and on rare occasions, Cathedral formation. Smoky Quartz clusters can be found, but are really quite rare. Sometimes Smoky combines with Amethyst, which gives the benefits of both, as well as creating their own unique combined energy. Phantom Quartz crystals in Smoky are very powerful in breaking old patterns and blockages.
As an elixir Smoky Quartz can have great effect against radiation-induced illnesses. It purges toxicity from the major bodily organs. It is very good for reining in wayward emotions and helps one put things into perspective. Smoky Quartz helps keep us grounded while under great stress. It also is a great boost to the body’s immune system.
Smoky quartz works very well in conjunction with Rose Quartz, Amethyst and Citrine. In some cases you can get Bi-colored crystals such as Smoky and White Quartz, which has a balancing effect in all yin and yang issues. There is also a tri-color Elestial family that has Smoky/White and Citrine Quartz. These are very powerful manifestation crystals and are unfortunately getting hard to find now.
It is a very joyful crystal. It is helpful to hold if you have other crystals that un-ground you such as Moldavite.
A lot of Smoky Quartz on the market is actually heated Clear Quartz. Majestic Quartz only supplies natural Smoky Quartz. If it is not translucent at all, be very suspicious. I have only seen 2 Smoky Quartz crystals that are not translucent, but are actually the real thing.

Rainbow Quartz
For what and How Does One Use it?
Rainbow Crystals are very good manifestation crystals – as they have all colors of the rainbow inside them. This means they stimulate every chakra, thus stimulating every creative level possible. The full spectrum of colors make it easier to bring these manifestations into physical reality.
A good manifesting meditation exercise to do with a rainbow crystal is to lie down – place the crystal on your solar plexus. Now using visualization – concentrate on breathing in each color through the crystal, then on wards through the solar plexus and into the chakra concerned. Start with red for the root chakra, orange for sacral, gold for solar plexus, green then pink for the heart, blue for the throat, purple for the third eye, and white light for the crown. Seven breaths for each chakra should suffice. Now you are attuned to the crystal and have activated the 7 chakras – you are ready to use conscious intent to place your manifestation wishes within the quartz using the crystal programming technique. Once you feel comfortable the crystal has received what you wish to manifest into your life – the crystal will go on radiating that program 24/7, vastly accelerating the manifestation process.
Rainbow Quartz Crystals come in all the different flavors and varieties of quartz. The rainbows help expand that crystals default properties. An example would be the default root chakra grounding properties of Smoky Quartz will be expanded to the rest of the chakras covered by that particular rainbows color spectrum. These higher energies generated by the rainbow will be grounded into each chakra by the Smoky Quartz grounding properties.
