The staff at my new age shop, Mimosa Books & Gifts, had this to share:
Citrine is a yellow to brown form of quartz, with most pieces a golden yellow that’s reminiscent of topaz. It forms naturally when trace amounts of iron are trapped in quartz, as it crystallizes. This is the same process that forms amethyst; the only difference is that citrine forms under higher temperature. In fact, most citrine available commercially is made by heating amethyst, as naturally occurring citrine is rare.
Citrine is the “Merchant’s Stone,” because it is associated with success and prosperity. Older references are rare because it’s been confused with topaz until relatively recent times, but this use has been consistent. Citrine has been associated with the solar plexus chakra. It aids healing throughout the digestive system, and aids metabolism in general. For example, even though the thyroid gland is typically associated with the throat chakra because of its position, healers may use citrine to enhance its function.

Dear Ashley, It still amazes Me how the Universe brings to Me exactly what I require when I require it. Today it was your email with the podcast on Citrine. I so so needed this & hopefully it will help 1 of My Dear Friends too. Bless You & the Crystals too. I am very grateful.
Hi Ashley, thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.
I heard you say that you put your citrine in a red pouch?
My understanding (read and heard it on many other occasions) that if you want to stop a crystal vibrate you cover it with red?
Love & Light Hayet
Hi Hayet! Thanks so much for listening 🙂 Ashley uses a red pouch as it’s used in Feng Shui for prosperity. Personally we don’t feel that red pouches help much with stopping a crystal from vibrating– we find darker colors like black and brown to be much more effective at shielding. Crystal blessings! <3
Wonderful information about one of my most favourite crystals ever. Thanks as always Ashley 🙂

Great information, thank you. I had no idea this crystal is also associated with Virgo and works on the solar plexus/crown chakra. This crystal has been calling out to me for a very long time, I guess it has something to teach me.
