Citrine Chronicles: A Crystal Diary Entry | Mount Auk Crystals
Date: November 14, 2023
Moon Phase: Waxing Crescent
Crystal Companion: Citrine Palm Stone
The Golden Dawn
When I first held my raw Citrine cluster in the morning light, its honeyed prisms cast rainbows across my bedroom wall. This "Merchant's Stone" pulsed with what felt like liquid sunlight – not surprising, given its reputation as nature's concentrated optimism. Over the next month, working with Citrine became less about using a crystal and more about participating in golden alchemy.
Metaphysical Architecture
Citrine operates on the solar plexus chakra, but to limit it to one energy center feels like describing the sun as "bright." At its core (pun intended), this crystal:
- ⚡ Amplifies manifestation energy by 10x
- 🧠 Rewires scarcity mindset through warm, radiant frequency
- 💛 Dissolves emotional parasites like envy or resentment
- 🔄 Converts stagnant energy into creative momentum
Crystal Pairing Tip
For ambitious projects, layer Citrine with Lightning Blue Tiger Eye – their combined grounding and activating energies create sustainable drive without burnout.
Week One: Financial Alchemy
Placing Citrine in my wealth corner (SE bagua area) triggered unexpected opportunities:
- A forgotten client reinstated their contract
- Received surprise royalty check
- Landed speaking gig paying 3x my usual rate
But the real magic? Noticing my relationship with money shifting from anxiety to joyful expectation.
Daily Ritual
Each morning, I'd hold Citrine while affirming: "The Universe's abundance flows to me with ease and dignity." Within days, synchronicities appeared like golden breadcrumbs.
Week Three: Emotional Transmutation
Citrine's hidden gift emerged during a family conflict. Rather than my usual avoidance, I found myself:
- 🔍 Seeing core issues with solar clarity
- 🗣 Communicating boundaries sans guilt
- 💛 Releasing old resentment through literal laughter
Protection Pairing
When working through heavy emotions, balance Citrine's bright energy with protective Black Obsidian to deflect energy drains while processing shadows.
Full Moon Revelation
During the Taurus Full Moon (peak abundance energy!), I created a prosperity grid:
- Citrine cluster at center
- Pyrite coins at North/South
- Green Aventurine leaves at East/West
- Written intentions beneath in gold ink
By dawn, three new clients had booked services. More importantly: I felt worthy of every blessing.
Citrine Cocktails (Energetic Mixology)
1. Morning Sunrise Activation
Wear Citrine at solar plexus + sip lemon water charged with its energy. Visualize golden light expanding through your core.
2. Abundance Altar

Final Insights
Citrine taught me that abundance isn’t about accumulation, but circulation. As I began tithing portions of new income to causes dear to me, opportunities multiplied exponentially. This crystal's golden light reveals our inherent worthiness – not just financially, but in love, creativity, and soul expression.
"Citrine doesn't create abundance – it dissolves the illusions blocking us from the abundance that already exists." – Journal Entry, 11/8/23
Contraindications
While generally safe, those prone to overheating (physically/emotionally) should balance Citrine with cooling stones like Moonstone or Amazonite.
Parting Invocation
"Golden Sun within Earth's womb,
Melt my doubts, ignite my bloom.
Through your rays, may I perceive
All abundance I receive."
