Citrine is the kind of crystal that looks like it carries its own internal glow.
 
This crystal forms when silicon dioxide and iron meet heat inside the Earth. The result is quartz that ranges from pale yellow to richer amber tones. It’s found in Brazil, Madagascar, Russia, Spain, and the United States, and is well loved by jewelers and collectors for its clarity and warmth.
 
Citrine’s color variations come from how much iron is present and how much natural heat it experienced. It’s one of the more visually recognizable quartz varieties, and its warm tone makes it a favorite for both display and everyday wear.
 
Known as the Merchant’s Stone and Success Stone, Citrine has a longstanding association with motivation and abundance. Many people reach for Citrine when they want to stay focused, confident, or optimistic while working toward goals.
 
On the metaphysical side, Citrine activates the solar plexus chakra—the center tied to confidence, motivation, and clarity. It helps clear stagnant energy, supports better decision-making, and provides a steady, uplifting presence.
 
Citrine’s combination of color, formation story, and meaning makes it one of the most approachable and energizing quartz varieties.
