The more common type of Citrine found on the market is the characteristic lemon-yellow to orange-yellow stones created by heating Amethyst crystals to a high temperature.   This process does happen within the Earth, for natural Citrine, so this heating does not damage them.  Though in many ways these stones should be considered a different mineral, in regards to their healing and metaphysical properties. 

Some people will refer to Heat Treated Citrine as ‘Common Citrine’ not the most flattering of names and I would say a calling it ‘Warm Citrine’ would suit it better it my opinion, as it is said this type of Citrine may bring a light to dark thoughts and bring an optimism, playfulness and happiness into one’s energy system. To me this is bringing a warmth and a comfort to ones self. It is considered to 

enable one to be more assertive and outgoing and it may also give a ’second wind’ to face difficult situations.
