Citrine

Citrine Sterling Silver Pendant. Comes with Sterling Silver Chain.

November Birthstone!

Citrine keywords: all chakras, but especially solar plexus; Cancer, Aries; optimism, abundance. Hardness: 7. Composition: SiO2 Silicon dioxide. Color will fade in prolonged direct sunlight.

Deriving from the French citron, or lemon, lighter shades of Citrine are said to govern the physical body and its functions, and darker shades the spiritual aspects of life. A powerful cleanser and regenerator that carries the power of the sun, this is an exceedingly beneficial stone. Energizing and highly creative, it never needs cleansing. It absorbs, transmutes, and grounds negative energy and protects the environment. It is particularly beneficial for attracting abundance and should be placed in a cashbox and the wealth corner of the house. Encouraging sharing what one has, it imparts joy to all who behold it.
