Metaphysical:

People are drawn to golden Citrine for the courage and self discipline it offers.  Getting tasks done, developing self worth and mastering the ego are all achieved through the energies of Citrine.

Citrine brings happiness, joy and optimism into your life. One of only two minerals on the planet which do not hold or accumulate negative energy, but dispels and transforms it.  You don't ever have to cleanse Citrine, because it doesn't hold any negativity!  Citrine energizes, and  invigorates, promotes warmth, comfort, and energy.   Aids in matters of daily living. It is said citrine will open the mind to new thoughts. Often used by healers to increase self esteem.

• Successful Outcome: Citrine is the best stone to use when trying to "Take care of Business" whether it be accomplish business matters, education, or settle family matters. This includes legal issues and lawsuits when materials or money is involved.
• Light: Citrine is SUN energy -  Used during the Middle Ages to treat people whose energy and moods become depressed during the long winter months, or during  a long spell of rainy, overcast weather.
• Wealth: The lucky "Merchants Stone". Carry Citrine if you have a lot of material wealth, to help from becoming greedy and too attached to material possessions.  Citrine will help you focus more on the giver than the gift.
• Materialism: Although this stone is particularly good for material wealth, prosperity and career success, our value is not determined by what we own, but by WHO we are.  Success as a human being goes far beyond a large paycheck.   What determines your value to you?  I will be very surprised if your answer is simply a large bank account.
• Entrepreneurs:  Especially good for people starting a new business!!  Supports your material and business SUCCESS in addition to supporting your business plans and successful associations with vendors, partners, and suppliers.

• Communication: Often carried in the pocket of public speakers, to give courage and strengthen communication skills.  It will help you think clearly and bolster your confidence.  could come in handy, as in "Would you like to share your story tonight...?"

1st Step Stone:  The only step you have to do perfectly.  Excellent stone to support you on your new journey, or keep you on the path to success!!

New Comers: A particularly good stone for Beginners in any 12 Step Program, giving support and self confidence when they need it most.

Citrine is also called the "Coyote Stone".  According to legend, the coyote is the one who place tricks, and forces others to learn in spite of themselves.  This is a good stone for those who are most resistant to treatments.

Al Anon and Al A Teen:  A survivor's stone, it imparts courage when the chips are really down. The crystal brings wisdom for making good decisions and helps remove self-imposed obstacles.

1st Tradition:  "Personal Recovery depends upon AA Unity" - Getting along with other people.  This stone is excellent at smoothing family or groups problems, and penetrating problems, expediting solutions.  Helps define problems and workable solutions on a non physical level.

I think every group should buy a Citrine Sphere, about 2 inches in diameter, and that one person should be responsible for  putting it smack dab in the middle of the table before everyone gets there and starts to talk.  Things would move along so much smoother.  Just MHO.

Finally, Citrine is the HAPPY Stone, full of Joy and Sun energy .. ..
