What do the Citrine Geode & Amethyst Geode Have in Common?
Origin
Geodes are formed within lava (spills) over millions of years. Owning any geode means that you are in possession of an ancient piece of the earth’s history. We wrote an in-depth article about how the cathedral-shaped goede is created – check it out if you’re interested – it’s pretty fascinating.
Beauty
Both citrine geodes and amethyst geodes are strikingly beautiful. Their crystal points sparkle and provide us with a dazzling display that can occupy us for hours and brighten the environment they’re placed in.
Composition
The amethyst and citrine geode are related in that they are both composed of silica (quartz). Therefore, they share the qualities of quartz crystals, while also having their own qualities. Citrine is formed when quartz is heated, and this can occur naturally or artificially, which causes the iron inclusions in the mineral to be reduced, transforming the purple color of amethyst into the golden color of citrine. For this reason, amethyst and citrine will always be related, and ametrine is actually a combination of amethyst and citrine in one stone.
Benefits
Both the amethyst geode and the citrine geode will improve and uplift your life. Amethyst provides more peace and tranquility, while citrine offers us happiness and radiance. Both bring positive energy into our lives, just in a different way.
Amplification
Both amethyst and citrine are amplifiers, which means they have the ability to increase the power of other crystals. By placing other crystals on your amethyst geode or citrine geode, you can enjoy the healing power of each of your crystals more fully.
