Bright, warm, and endlessly energizing, the citrine crystal is one of the most sought-after stones in the world of crystal healing. Known as the “Merchant's Stone” and the “Success Stone,” citrine carries the energy of the sun — uplifting, magnetic, and overflowing with possibility. If you're ready to call in more abundance, joy, and creative momentum, citrine is your crystal.
Citrine Crystal Meaning
Citrine gets its name from the French word citron, meaning lemon — a nod to its warm golden-yellow color. It resonates with the solar plexus chakra, the energetic center of personal power, confidence, and manifestation. Unlike most crystals, citrine is one of the few stones that does not absorb negative energy — it transmutes it, making it a uniquely self-cleansing and endlessly positive stone.
Historically, merchants kept citrine in their cash registers to attract wealth and prosperity. Today, it's beloved by entrepreneurs, creatives, and anyone ready to step into their power and abundance.

How to Use Citrine for Abundance
The Wealth Corner
In feng shui, the far left corner of your home or office (from the front door) is the wealth corner. Place a citrine cluster or point here to continuously attract abundance into your space.
In Your Workspace
Keep a citrine crystal on your desk or in your cash register (or near your laptop if you work online) to invite financial flow and creative inspiration into your work.
Manifestation Practice
Hold citrine in your dominant hand, close your eyes, and clearly visualize your abundance goal. Feel the emotion of already having it. Citrine amplifies this energetic signal and helps align you with your desired outcome. Pair it with our Manifestation & Growth collection for a powerful practice.

Citrine for Manifestation – A Simple Ritual

Natural vs. Heat-Treated Citrine
Most citrine on the market is actually heat-treated amethyst, which turns orange-brown rather than the true golden yellow of natural citrine. Natural citrine is rarer and carries a purer, more refined energy. At Brie & Marie, we clearly describe our stones so you always know what you're getting.
