Citrine is the Birthstone for November
If your birthday is in November, your birthstone is CITRINE – a gift from the sun! Citrine is the yellow variety of quartz, and it’s name comes from the French word for lemon. Citrine is considered a healing gemstone – calming, soothing and comforting. It is also said to spark imagination and encourage fresh beginnings and prosperity. Fun fact: in ancient times, citrine was carried as protection against snake venom and evil thoughts. Today it is more commonly known as “the merchant’s stone” and is associated with success and wealth. Happy birthday to everyone born in this lovely autumn month!
