Amethyst, Ametrine and Citrine

Amethyst, Ametrine and Citrine are made up of the same mineral components but have had different experiences. Somewhat like siblings. They all grew up in the same family group but their unique trials and tribulations have given them separate skills or powers.

If I could only have a few stones to work with, Amethyst would be at the top of the list. This crystal is a n overall healer – physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually and energetically. On the physical level, Amethyst can aid with breathing and asthma, skin allergies, addictions, digestion and metabolism, immune system, hearing, eyes, heart, decreases pain and so much more. Mentally Amethyst will enhance and clarify our thoughts and cut through the emotions that are clouding our judgment. Emotionally it can calm our nerves, boost our self confidence, release worry and reduce stress as well as treat insomnia. Spiritually this gemstone increases the Divine Connection, relaxes the mind and increases focus for meditation and clarification of received messages. Energetically this crystal tool instills a steady energy, increases health and decreases stress to aid in balancing all chakras while protecting our energy field. Combined with Sulfur, this purple gemstone will shield against negative energy and ill-wishing.

Ametrine is a stone that contains both Amethyst and Citrine at the same time. It has the properties of both stones and is extremely helpful in times of transformation and drastic change. This stone balances the male and female energies (yin/yang). It enhances compatibility and the acceptance of others as well as self. Ametrine stimulates creativity and promotes an optimistic outlook. If you are moving into a new place, put Ametrine by the front door for the first month in your new residence. It will allow you to feel more at home more quickly. This stone is a great one for going through puberty as it balances hormones and emotions while keeping the body from developing too quickly and causing ‘growing pains.’

Citrine is Amethyst that has been radiated either naturally or in a lab. This sibling has been through the most experiences and traumas. It is a purifier, cleanser, balancer and regenerator of all the organs and main systems. It instills a sense of wellness, joy, self-esteem and abundance. It allows one to overcome fears and depression. Citrine combats exhaustion, chemical toxins, infections and aids in the recovery from chemotherapy and radiation. This invigorating yellow stone works especially well on thyroid/thymus, spleen, pancreas, blood, kidneys and bladder. Citrine is a stone of manifestation and turning dreams into reality by focusing your energy, hard work and desire.
