Playing For You From Our Scented Cottage..

Think what a better world it would be if we all, the whole world, had cookies and milk about three o'clock every afternoon and then lay down on our blankets for a nap.

Beautiful Citrine...


Did you realize that citrine is actually rare? Most of the citrine found on the market today is simply amethyst which has been heat treated.

In the Late Victorian era citrine was often set with other semiprecious stones such as bloodstones, carnelian & garnets. In ancient times, citrine was believed to ward off evil thoughts and was carried as protection against the plague, skin problems and snake bites. It was one of the stones used in the breastplate of the High Priest.

Citrine prepares your body, emotions and mind to accept a greater flow of the yellow color ray. The yellow ray is the aspect of life force that helps us release what no longer serves us. Citrine also aids the kidneys, liver, spleen and intestines.

Known as "The Merchant's Stone", citrine is said to bring prosperity when placed in a cash register as if drawing the money there. Since citrine is reported to hold no negativity, it never requires cleansing or clearing.
