Ametrine

Ametrine is a naturally bicolour variety of quartz that merges amethyst’s violet with citrine’s golden warmth in a single crystal. In the hand it feels bright yet composed, like sunrise and twilight meeting. The banding appears where temperature and chemistry shift during growth, with Bolivia’s Anahí deposit being the best-known source. People tend to reach for ametrine when they want balanced focus, clear decisions, and a gentle mood lift without losing calm.

Metaphysical Properties

Spiritual Clarity and Balance: Ametrine is revered for its ability to promote clarity, enhance meditation, and help one connect with higher consciousness.
Manifestation of Goals: Ametrine carries the energizing qualities of Citrine, encouraging abundance and the manifestation of personal and professional goals.
Inner Peace and Harmony: The combination of Amethyst’s calming properties and Citrine’s energizing effects allows Ametrine to bring peace, mental clarity, and emotional healing.

Medicinal and Historical Tidbits

Ametrine is celebrated in lapidary arts for natural purple-and-gold zoning that rewards precise cutting. A regional Bolivian legend links the Anahí name to an Indigenous princess, while documented commercial mining grew during the late twentieth century. Jewelers appreciate quartz’s durability and luminous polish. Lore frames ametrine as a companion for clarity and balance. For any health matters, rely on qualified professional guidance.

Where It’s Found

Most fine ametrine comes from the Anahí Mine in eastern Bolivia. Smaller occurrences are reported from Brazil and a few other quartz localities, but the Bolivian deposit has supplied the global market with the most consistent quality and quantity.

Practical Spiritual Uses

Set a stone on your desk for study, strategy, or planning. Hold during breathwork to align calm intuition with decisive follow-through. Wear as a pendant for balanced communication in meetings. Build a simple grid with ametrine and clear quartz for clarity, adding smoky quartz to ground goals into action.

Care & Cleansing

Limit strong sunlight to protect color and avoid prolonged water exposure. Refresh with smoke, soft sound, moonlight, or a selenite plate. Wipe with a soft cloth and mild soap if needed, then dry completely. Store separately so its hardness does not scratch softer stones.

“I align my mind, body, and spirit, harnessing the power of Ametrine to manifest my highest potential with balance and clarity.”
