History & Origin:

Lemon Quartz, also known as Oro Verde Quartz, is a vibrant lemon-yellow crystal similar in appearance to Citrine. You can tell the difference by colour, Lemon Quartz is more of a light green-gold hue, while treated Citrine is more golden-orange. While Lemon Quartz can occur naturally, majority of the stones on the market are Quartz that has been irradiated, undergoing the same process it would under the Earth just in a lab instead! 

Metaphysical Properties:

As opposed to natural Citrine & Lemon Quartz (which are both quite rare) treated Quartz has a more soft & subtle vibe, perfect for individuals who are highly sensitive to strong energies. From inspiring confidence, motivation & clarity, to bringing optimism, healing & creativity, this crystal does it all. Carrying the power of the sun, Lemon Quartz is excellent for overcoming depression, fears, phobias & building self-worth. It carries with it a radiance that will encourage you to look forward to the future optimistically. Additionally, it is a stone of the mind, supporting memory, concentration & mental focus.

How to use:

Hold one when you are feeling sad to inspire joy, happiness, clarity & hope. Place one over your Solar Plexus Chakra to bring power, inspiration & creativity. Hold one while saying affirmations to help your dreams become reality.
