Hi, in this video I'm going to be introducing you to one of my other favorite crystals: Sparkles. Sparkles is a citrine cluster that brings me joy. Essentially what I'm saying is that citrine, to me, is the stone for joy. This is Sparkles.
As you know, I love to name my stones. I call this stone Sparkles because it sparkles. If you can look at it clearly, maybe you can see how it's glistening, how it's twinkling.
It reminds me of bubbly champagne and that feeling that you get after you drink a little bubbly. This is how this stone affects me. When you look at how it sparkles, really, how upset can you be?
What kind of person can look at a bottle of champagne and really be upset? Even though you don't drink it, it just looks happy, and it kind of reminds you of good things, and most people toast to good things.
This is a wine-colored or champagne-colored citrine crystal for joy. I use it on my third chakra, my center. The solar plexus chakra is the center for willpower and basically joy.
Without joy, you just don't have the willpower to do anything, and this is what citrine does for me.
Citrine has taught me to see the beauty of life, to see the sparkle in life, and to be joyous, vivacious, and exuberant in the things that I do.
Whenever I look at Sparkles, this natural cluster, all I can think of is: Caroline, you need to up your game and see the sparkle, the beauty, the little things that are glistening in life, that are sparks of hope and joy and beauty and goodness.
Just be happy. This is my joy stone. It's my go-to stone.
I know many people say that citrine is a stone for abundance. I can see how it could be a stone for abundance, because joy really is an aspect of abundance, in my opinion.
Citrine could be used for abundance, and most people use it for abundance, but when you look at it from the perspective of joy being an aspect of abundance, then I see how that works. This is my natural sitting cluster.
I also have a natural, it's almost honey-colored, citrine from the Congo. This is another one. They're all natural, the cluster and this little one that I haven't named yet. This is a bit darker, as you can see.
And then of course I have lots of tumblies. It's just good to see how beautiful they look.
Although I'm not a tumble stone kind of girl, I still have a couple of them everywhere, and this is just one of them that I use to remind me of how life can be full of joy.
Just to see them in different parts of my apartment reminds me, or just to add a little sparkle to my life, and also to make sure that my willpower is strong enough and good enough for me to move forward in joy, because really, what's the point of living life not being joyful, not being happy?
Citrine is the stone for people who feel like every day life is a drudge, and you just kind of have to pull yourself together to get things going.
So if you feel like your energy is low and you need a little bit of spark in your life, a little bit of champagne-colored bubbly taste or energy to your life, citrine is the stone for you. Do you have a citrine?
Look at it. It kind of even looks like it has two horns. Okay, so if you have a citrine, do share. Let me know what you use your citrine for, and I guess I'll see you next time.
In the meantime, have a sparkly life. See you later. Bye.
