Heated Crystal Healing Energy

Heated Citrine Bracelet

Question:  Do gemstones lose their properties when heated, do you know?

Answer: Hi, thank you for your question. Many natural stones are heated to bring out their color or give them even coloring. Heating stones does not affect the energy properties of the crystal, unless the heat changes it from one stone to another. For example, when you heat Amethyst it turns into Citrine. Heating is also done naturally within the earth.

CRYSTALS: Heated Citrine

QUESTION: Is this bracelet 100% natural? Where did it come from? If it is 100% natural i will buy it and check if its 100% natural. If they say it is fake then what will happen, i want to buy a 100% natural one.

ANSWER: Hello, thank you for your email. This Citrine bracelet is a natural stone that has been heat treated to bring out the yellow color. So the stone is 100% natural, but the color is not. Please note that 90% of all the Citrine on the market is heat treated. Natural Citrine is very light in color and more rare.

CRYSTALS: Icing

QUESTION: I am looking for sphere's to use in La Stone therapy which would require the spheres to be iced. Does this material handle iced tempatures without breaking?

ANSWER: Thanks for your question. We are happy to hear that you are using crystals in your LaStone therapy. Obsidian has a hardness of about 6 on the Mohs Scale of Hardness, so it is pretty tough, considering the average organic crystals you use for icing start at the hardness of 3. Of course, you should always keep in mind that over time, the polish of these crystals under iced or heated conditions will inevitably scratch and fade, but consider this a natural phenomenon of working with Nature!

Thank you for your healing in this world,
