CITRINE

Sunny Citrine is a stone of Success. As “The Success Stone” Citrine possess vibrant energy. In ancient times it was kept by merchants and bankers in the cash box and hailed the “merchants stone” for its innate ability to increase cash flow. As a stone of abundance and prosperity, energizing Citrine is still used today for manifestation, fresh beginnings, new pursuits and increasing personal will. With the power of the sun, golden Citrine is positive, lively and invigorating. As an added bonus, Citrine is one of the only crystals that never needs to be cleared or cleansed.

It is also the birthstone of the November born.

ROSE QUARTZ

Rose Quartz is well-known for its innate ability to increase love. According to ancient Greek mythology, Eros, God of Love, (known to the Romans as Cupid), gave Love to humans in the form of Rose Quartz. As symbol of love, this stone of the heart is often used in love rituals and ceremonies to increase the capacity for compassion and peace and unconditional love. Nowadays, Rose Quartz is most predominately used to increase self-love and lower self-doubt. Directly linked to the Heart Chakra, Rose Quartz opens the heart and soothes emotions.
