From
Bolivia comes this absolutely truly unusual ametrine 1.1 oz slice, 2.2” by 1.9”
by 0.25”. Her sides are natural
(although keyed in one area and with an extraction scar on one side) and she
has been sawn into a cross-section. Her
color is evident even lying on a surface, but hold her to the light and savor
the almost stained glass patterns of the citrine, amethyst and white quartz. The light play is amazing and I was fascinated
a long time just studying her … her citrine areas look like little candles
burning within her. She has a sweet,
matte finish and has not been polished.
Her pictures show her dry; rubbing her with oil will deepen her colors a
bit and if you want me too, I will anoint her with sandalwood oil for you. I
found her amazing and fascinating with the most ethereal of energies! She is rare and beautiful and full of
delights for her Keeper.
Ametrine
is a combination of amethyst and citrine; citrine is the result of the earth’s
natural heating that turns amethyst into the golden color you recognize as
citrine. As such, she is a chameleon, a
transformation and transmutation artist, as well as one that unifies the yin
and yang aspects of our Self. That’s a
pretty big task when you think about it.
The Spiritual qualities of her amethyst blend with those of the physical
– critical for one on a Spiritual path so that all that is learned is put into
physical expression. The sensitivity of
the Higher Self is melded with the protection of the core Self and core
beliefs. She has energies that are both
calming and lofty with those that are energizing and active. Her albite nature aids in introspection and
determining the truth in what you find. Believe
me when I tell you that she is kind of an “answer crystal”, allowing you to
extract the energies you need for the moment and for your development. I found her very useful for fending off
psychic attacks, apparently as a result of her chameleon abilities – she can
reflect those negative energies away from her Keeper and provide a means of
transmuting them. If you were to have
but one crystal on your altar, this would be the one! Anoint her with rain water and experience her
heady crystalline musk and delight in every aspect of her wondrous expression!
