Heat Treated Amethyst, also known as Citrine, is a vibrant variety of quartz known for its warm yellow to orange hues. This beautiful crystal is created by heat-treating amethyst, which causes its purple color to transform into shades of yellow and orange. Citrine is believed to promote abundance, prosperity, and creativity, making it an excellent stone for manifestation and success.
While it may share some properties with natural citrine, it doesn't have the same energetic properties as natural citrine. Heat-treated amethyst may still retain some of the properties of amethyst, but its energy is often considered to be less vibrant compared to natural citrine.
