The Carnelian is a semi-precious stone from the chalcedony family, recognizable by its color ranging from light orange to dark red, sometimes marbled with more opaque or translucent areas. Its warm hue evokes life, strength, and passion.
Since ancient Egypt, where it adorned the funeral jewelry and amulets of the pharaohs, the Carnelian is used to stimulate vitality and protect against low energies. It is connected to the sacral chakra, which it activates to release creative energy and enhance motivation.
Birthstone of the month of July, the Carnelian is ideal for those seeking confidence, courage, or a resurgence of energy. It is often worn as jewelry or kept close to the body to benefit from its stimulating vibrations.
