Composition

Ametrine is a mixture of Amethyst and Citrine, and is a common and naturally occurring variety of quartz. It is a silicon dioxide with inclusions of iron, which is in much higher concentrations in the yellow sections than in the violet parts. It comes in various shades of purple and a yellow to orange / yellow colour in alternating sections. It is a transparent crystal.

General Information & Legends

By blending the masculine and feminine energy, Ametrine is able to bring harmony into relationships that are difficult because of an imbalance of energies, whether that be romantic, family, work or social relationships. It can help to bring clarity to situations by harnessing lateral thinking and creativity.

It focuses the mind, strengthening concentration and assists in thinking things through whilst exploring all potential possibilities and bringing creative solutions forward. It also assists with memory and information retention and is therefore useful when studying or learning or when the mind feels foggy and there is an inability to concentrate on the task in hand.
