Review of HibiscusMoon on Etsy: The Most AMAZING CRYSTALS EVER! (Citrine and Quartz)

[livinluxuriously]

um...hate to hate on phanie but I suggest u check out my latest videos on citrine... that is not citrine... but most likely amethyst that was heat treated. Ctrine is a type of quarts - and actually looks nothing like that. Please check out my latest 2 videos - I'll email them to you...

[AutumnsMagic]

@livinluxuriously - I have tons of citrine, both the smaller points like you show on your video, as well as the darker kind like I received from phanie. I know that some people heat-treat amethyst and sell it as citrine, but if you watch this entire video, you'll see that she sent info discussing the fact that it is Madeira Citrine. This particular piece has the lighter color beneath the darkest part, and then gradiates down to white. Citrine and amethyst are both in the quartz family.

@livinluxuriously Hi LL, You're not hating on me in any way. :) Now, let's discuss. Even if is heated artificially, it is still classified as citrine. Amehtyst is also a type of quartz. They are both still SiO2. Natural citrine is created by Mother Earth heating it. LAb citrine is created the same way. This artifical heating is not enough to change the molecular structure of the crystal so, IMHO, the healing properties are preserved but lighter. Some well known crystal authors agree.

[livinluxuriously]

@phanie12 mother earth creates citrine with heat as quartz at its molecular core. Men in labs oven bake amethyst, which is very different from quartz (clear) metaphysically, to create what they falsely call "citrine". Metaphysically a man made citrine versus one from earths' labor are very, very different in their energy fields..

[phanie12]

@livinluxuriously YT will not let me respong here...pm'ing you. :)

[nicopetromac]

@livinluxuriously

Absolutly very diferent in it's vibration field..

Thank you for sharing!!

[nicopetromac]

I would like to tell you that this citrine that was sent to you has been baked. It is not real citrine. I do not want to make you feel bad but research citrine and its color and you will see that its actual color is a white wine color and anything darker has been baked and called citrine. I send you blessings and ask you to do your own research on citrine.

[AutumnsMagic]

@nicopetromac - I appreciate your concern, but I have no doubt that this is Madeira Citrine. I HAVE done the research, and I have a dark piece of "citrine" that is actually amethyst, as you describe. The two specimens are COMPLETELY different. The one from phanie has the lighter gold color underneath the deep orange, and then goes down into white/clear. There's a good image at 1:16 that show this. I know phanie well, and she knows her crystals. She would never sell a "fake" crystal to anyone.

[livinluxuriously]

no one said she would. But amethyst & clear quartz are two VERY different types of quartz in terms of their vibrational frequency, energy fields, & metaphysical properties.For 1 they both resonate with totally different chakras - & a citrine quartz made by man will always have a much weaker energy field than 1 produced by earth. If you own citrine purely for show than I guess it matters not -but if you plan to use it for healing you'll not get the desired result as its divine purpose

[phanie12]

@livinluxuriously The Earth can also produce citrine by heating amethyst producing a deep brown citrine aka Madeira. This is more rare than the honey or white wine colored one. The lab treated Madeira has a red tint...that's the only difference.

@nicopetromac Hi Nico, Even if is heated artificially, it is still classified as citrine. Amehtyst is also a type of quartz. They are both still SiO2.

[CharmingPixieFlora]

Its Stunning!!! Gotta love the freebies...

[cowmax1962]

I LOVE you earrings.. the hangy down ones! :)

blessings to you

[BBooShamrock]

I can't wait to order from her. I've just been waiting for some extra cash (when does that happen, right? LOL)

That citrine is GORGEOUS!

[phanie12]

New stock is being added now. :) Thanks again, Autumn. Love you, girl!

[MissDistressed]

oh so pretty!! love them!

[ShoryoTombo]

Yeah! You got yours! It's beautiful!! I ordered over the weekend and can't wait to get it! I ordered Amethyst and Citrine and bouncing off the wall until they come home! lol

I promise to show it off on here. I also ordered from MsSophiaDawn's GaiaGathering of some herbs. Can't wait for their arrival as well.

Your Citrine is beautiful!!

[AutumnsMagic]

Ohh...yay! MsSophia has an Etsy store? I had no idea! I'll have to go check that out. (Not that I have ANY money to spend...between this purchase, some incense, another RareDaisyJewelry purchase--OMG, you HAVE to check out her store too--I just got an unbelievable Labradorite pendant, Kunzite Pendant, and a Fluorite Tower that will just blow you away! I'm wiped out for the month. (At least. Oh, not to mention BPAL. I'm going to find a side job or something! ;-))

[goddessmelania]

Love your videos... isn't it amazing how things just work out. The store in my town just went out of business and I was looking on-line for a store to shop at. Then here I am at your video and wouldn't you know. 8o) thanks for the post.

[AutumnsMagic]

Yay! Nothing is coincidence, you know! (I know, I say that all the time.) Definitely check out HibiscusMoon--she's AMAZING! And watch her videos too, while you're at it, because she's probably the most knowledgeable person on crystals and stones that I've ever "met." (Her user name is phanie12--I put it in the video and the sidebar, but apparently I feel like repeating myself. Heh.)

[BekahApple]

GORGEOUS! I just checked the shop out and I am very interested in buying a few things.

Thanks for sharing. =]

[TheMsJohnee]

[princessannikki]

[ilikevideos002]

That's so awesome. I can't wait to order something from her!

[CoconutSummer11]

I don't have any money to buy anything from her right now. But i will when i have the money.

[Pagyptsian]

Wow that is really great that she sent you information on citrine! =] Really beautiful!

[saygesorrel]

Ooo I will def. check it out!!! :)

♥

[fotogrl1]

Don't you just love phanie12?! She's so awesome! I can't wait to get my first paycheck; there are a couple of things I want to get from her, including a citrine cluster! She has SO much amazing information on stones/crystals!

[heidelbergerin]

Excellent video - thanks for the links! I know what you mean about trying to quit smoking... I'm not doing so well at it myself, but then again, the will power is waning quicker than the moon lol. Hope the nausea clears up soon, hun BB x

[FantasyFaeryT1]

I know! I want one of her citrine clusters soooo bad....but to broke right now! OMG YOU HAVE THE ONE I WANTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love her store!!! I can't wait til I can get one and more!

xoxo

[phanie12]

BTW, amethyst is great for helping with smoking addictions.

Tons love & light to you!!!

Hibiscus Moon

[AutumnsMagic]

I've got a couple pieces of amethyst...maybe I need a pendant or something! (Like I don't have enough of those already!) ;-)

[heidelbergerin]

oooh thanks for the tip!!! I'm totally checking out your shop - do you ship outside the US?? :-) Blessings

[phanie12]

Yep, I do. :)

[phanie12]

Oh my word! (((HUGS))) Thank you, thank you, thank you, Autumn. You are too, too sweet! When I picked that cluster bed I felt the same as you about it. It shocked me it was so pretty. I handpick them all and look for that quality. I love how your nail polish and eye shadow are absolutely perfectly coordinated with that citrine! Amazing. Yes, dunk it for 7 days and 7 nights in sea salt water...you can watch my vid about that. You want to unprogram anything that the bed may have picked up.

[AutumnsMagic]

You're more than welcome--you totally deserve it! And I know--the fact that my eyeshadow and nailpolish were coordinated with the citrine was TOTALLY unplanned, but it worked out so well! I thought it was pretty cool. Oh, girl, I've watched that video before! It's in there now, near my altar with the quartz.. It's going to have a permanent place on my altar, which is in my bathroom, because as much as I'd love for it to be out for others to see, I don't want to chance it getting damaged.

[ThatWitchLady]

OOOOOhh my.....that is AMAZING! Can I have it....please..please? Lol...j/k. Seriuosly though...I HAVE to go check out her etsy 'cause I must have one! :)

BB darlin'

)O(

[misskittyco]

That quartz has the highest clarity I've ever seen, amazing! By the way you are awesomely beautiful! Oh and try Charming Pixie Flora's apple banishing for just a little added assistance with the smoking thing-worked great as a final push for me. Many blessings to you on your new journey.

[AutumnsMagic]

It's awesome, isn't it? Aw, thank you for the sweet compliment. And thank you for recommending Flora's apple spell! I've been meaning to do that and keep forgetting.

[DollyAndTheBlackDog]

How amazing!

[Darkdesertmoon1]

Oh God, how beautiful!

[Butterflyfae]

Wow that does look really incredible! Awesome buy! And how great that she sends information with her crystals. Bookmarking her.

BTW Hi :)

Been watching your videos for awhile and finally made a name and subscribed to you.

[AutumnsMagic]

Yay! Yes, do bookmark her--seriously, the crystals are all incredible. I think her supply might be a bit low at the moment, but afaik, she'll be adding more soon. And Hi to you too! Nice to meet you--thank you so much for watching!
