This exquisite BG3 Citrine comes from the original find in Piaui, Brazil. While these crystals have since been found in other locales (i.e. Ouro Fino), Piaui was the original locale for these special crystals.
These crystals are what are known as Adaptogenic, or BG3, crystals. This new class of crystals is designated by vibrational markers which are different from all other stones, and which make their energy far more balanced and universally applicable. In healing applications, this means that the energy of these crystals naturally adapts to the needs of the person, and can correlate to any chakra depending on where energy is needed. We have only a small number of these very special crystals and their energy is like nothing we have experienced before! **(See a more detailed description about their healing properties at the bottom of this listing)**
ABOUT THIS CRYSTAL
Exquisite formation to this extraordinary BG3 Citrine with a mildly golden hue, with hints of mild smokiness, and outstanding etched textures on its sides. This piece is a perfect Scepter formation with a robust scepter "stem" poking out from the base.
We love the color zoning on this piece, which is a bit more golden at the base (and on the "stem") and blends into a more clear Quartz toward the top. In the main facet area of this piece is a vibrant rainbow that flashes beautifully at the right angle (see Photos 2-3). There's a very minor "fleabite" at the termination that blunts it so slightly, but it is otherwise intact and very nice. Superb!

FORMATION
The Scepter is a crystal that is naturally formed around and is penetrated by a rod/a crystal with a thinner rod extending from the base/a crystal with overgrowth capping its terminated point – a royal scepter look. These crystals were said to have been used in Atlantis and Lemuria in healing ceremonies. They were a symbol of the power of the realm and were carried or worn by the “high priest/priestess”. The Scepter crystal brings the spirituality of the higher planes in the healing ceremonies and focuses the energy deep within the “heart” of the matter. Symbolizing sovereignty and authority, these crystals directly link several chakras, transmit directional energy, and represent all sky deities.
Rainbow crystals bring joy into ones life and are very special gifts. These crystals are natural promoters of happiness, hope, optimism, peace, courage, creativity and awakens us to the beauty in Nature. They help us to deal with negativity and to maintain the constant awareness that love is in our life at all times.

ABOUT BG3 / ADAPTOGENIC CRYSTALS
Adaptogenic Crystals (also known as BG3) are a new classification of crystals that have the characteristic of being able to energetically and vibrationally adapt depending on what type of energy and/or vibration is needed for a particular healing.
This elite group of Crystals with adaptogenic vibrations share the common characteristic of possessing an unusually high Centering Vibration. This gives them a universal balancing energy which helps create balance in people, animals, plants or locations where their energy is applied, and also helps balance the effect of secondary vibrations within the particular type of stone, so that they are more easily absorbable by human beings and are not overwhelming in their effect.
While every Adaptogenic Crystal is similar in that it has high intensity Centering Vibration, they are all different due to their diverse Secondary Vibrations. Below are a few examples:
1. Ability to recharge the energy field of humans and other living beings, and can even recharge other stones which have been depleted).
2. Possess the profound ability to absorb virtually any harmful/heavy energy and transmute it to the centering (light) energy vibration.
3, Manifest intentions in the physical world through energizing of thought forms placed into it
4. Calming and clearing of the mind and emotions with powerful, and almost instantaneous, stress reduction.
CITRINE
Citrine activates, opens, and energizes the Solar Plexus and Navel Chakras, releasing personal power, creativity and most importantly the ability to manifest.
Citrine opens the higher mind to accept joy in one's life, releasing anger and negative feelings, deep-seated fears and destructive tendencies. An excellent crystal for overcoming depression, Citrine is wonderful for those who are overly sensitive to outside energies and influences. Worn, carried, or used in crystal healing, the radiant yellow color will increase the amount of light surrounding the body and protect the aura. It is also a good talisman to have in situations where one needs to feel confident and secure.

Buyers are responsible for any customs and import taxes that may apply. I'm not responsible for delays due to customs.
We have sold many kuripes and tepis over the years and very rarely have had one returned because of fit. Our designs are nearly universal and designed to fit just about everyone.
That said, we always suggest that once you receive your kuripe to "try it on" without hapé first to ensure a good fit. If you find it is not a good fit, please contact us and we'll work out a return or exchange (*please be sure you do this before you actually use it with hapé, because once it has been used, we are not able to accept returns for hygienic reasons).
If you have special sizing requests or you're not sure what you need, just ask and we'll be happy to help you!
No! Our only online presence is our Etsy shop and on Instagram and Facebook.
If you're seeing our EXACT listing photos and copy for goods (specifically Kuripes or Tepis) on Ali Baba (or elsewhere), for impossibly low prices, please know THIS IS NOT US and it is a scam.
We work hard to protect our Intellectual Property (photos/copy) but it can be nearly impossible in this day and age with sites like Ali Baba, whose platform makes it difficult to file IP complaints, and which is overrun by scammers.
If you're ever in doubt, please reach out to us here!
One caveat is that we do offer our HanaqPacha sprays to some great independent resellers, so please continue to support them!
We do our best to accommodate all customer requests. We accept returns and exchanges for items that are not as described, do not fit, or are damaged.
We unfortunately cannot accept returns or exchanges for items that the buyer "does not connect with energetically" or "changes their mind" about after the fact. This is unfortunately a risk one takes purchasing metaphysical items online.
We also cannot accept returns or exchanges on products like used kuripes for hygienic reasons, or sprays that have been used/tested.
However if you received a product that does not fit, does not work, is not as described, or is otherwise problematic -- excluding the exemptions we've indicated here -- contact us & we will do our best to rectify it for you.
Yes!!! 100%!
One of the main reasons we began HanaqPacha was to support the communities that have helped us so much with their healing, their culture, their medicines, their hospitality. Now, we work with many artisans in Peru and Brazil (and Indonesia, and beyond)... and do our best to support them, their families and their local economies by purchasing their wares at the most fair prices possible.
Your business helps us expand our global "family" even more, commissioning more unique works by our friends both at home and abroad.
If you provide an incorrect shipping address & catch it right after ordering, simply message us to let us know. If it’s caught right away there is usually no problem in updating the shipping address before we ship.
However, please understand that you, the buyer, are responsible for providing an accurate shipping address for your order. If you do not provide an accurate shipping address, we cannot be responsible for rerouting a parcel once it has left our hands.
If an item is returned due to an incorrect shipping address that you provided, we can reship, but will need to charge for the reshipping fees. This can get expensive and time-consuming. So please take a few seconds before submitting your order to ensure that all info is correct.
Yes! We ask only two things of our customers: 1.) Please read the entire item description before ordering and 2.) Please respect our shop and policies.
Most customer issues arise because someone did not read the item description or store policies. We spend a lot of time including DETAILED descriptions of each item, as well as at least 8 photos of each item. We do this to ensure our customers' satisfaction. However the one catch is that you need to read the information we provide so you can make an informed decision, to ensure that you will receive the exact thing you are in search of.
Not doing so risks lengthy and expensive return processes which are frustrating for all. So please read the descriptions and policies prior to ordering ;)
No, unfortunately we are not able to offer local pickup at this time. However we do ship just about daily and orders to the LA area typically will arrive in 1-2 days once shipped (Priority Shipping is generally 1 day in most cases).
Yes! One tip really: we ask that you track your item periodically via Etsy once we ship.
Many times, international items experience long delays in customs (which is normal), and sometimes parcels are "held for collection" at the local post office of the buyer and need to be picked up, or else they will be returned to seller. It is the responsibility of the buyer to stay abreast of this, so they can be sure to attend to any collection or signature required by your local post office.
If an item is returned due to non-collection, you will need to file a claim with Etsy and/or wait until the item is returned to us (which may be months) for reshipment, and then pay for reshipment.
Much easier to track and stay updated!
Please contact us right away and we will do whatever we can to resolve the issue.
While we know the initial reaction may be to leave a negative review, please reach out to us first and give us the opportunity to help you. We're not perfect, but we do take accountability when we are at fault or when we have made an error.
We want all our customers to have a positive shopping experience with us. We have a long history of excellent customer service and can help find a solution to almost anything.
Negative reviews should really be a last resort and are rarely warranted. We prefer to find solutions so that everyone is happy.
If an item is marked as "delivered" but not received, the next step is to speak with your local post office. It could mean it was misdelivered to an incorrect address or it may be waiting at the post office for you. If you provide the tracking number to a manager at the post office they can explore.
If you do not have success with this, you can open up a case with Etsy for an item not received. Often times Etsy may directly compensate the buyer in these circumstances: help.etsy.com/hc/en-us/articles/5745586898199-How-to-Open-a-Case-?segmen...
We're unfortunately not able to file claims for items marked as "delivered," but we do everything we can to ensure that you will either be refunded or receive your item. So please keep us updated.
