Carnelian is an orange-colored chalcedony, a mineral in the quartz family, whose name comes from the Latin word for “flesh.” Since the ancient Sumerian and Egyptian civilizations, this stone has been used in nearly every culture for its spiritual power and importance to the body.
Spiritual and Energetic Properties
Carnelian energy stimulates the lower three energy centers of the body, activating the root chakra, which hides the deepest desires and creative instincts. This stone helps:
- Promote Passion and Performance: Activates passion and inspires action, restoring courage and self-confidence.
