Carnelian is an orange-colored variety of Chalcedony, a mineral in the Quartz family with a hardness of 7. Its name is derived from its resemblance in color to the Kornel type of cherry. Carnelian's color can vary from pale orange to deep red-orange. Sometimes the material is banded in varying shades. Carnelian and all kinds of Chalcedony differ from Jasper (another Quartz mineral) in that the Quartz in Chalcedony is arranged in fibrous layers rather than the sugar-like grains found in Jasper. The finest Carnelians are found in India, although most of the stones on the market come from Brazil and Uruguay.
In ancient times, Carnelian was believed to give the wearer courage in battle and to help timid speakers become both eloquent and bold. This ancient lore about Carnelian is not essentially different from contemporary intuitive beliefs about it, which see it as a stone that supports qualities of leadership and courage.
ROBERT SIMMONS Carnelian activates the first, second and third chakras, bringing an influx of life force, sexual and creative energies, and assertive will. It is a powerful aid to those who wish to build confidence, courage, passion and power within themselves. It is of great help to the gentle souls who wish for good things but have difficulty making them happen. Often, those who lean in the direction of spirituality do their inner work from the heart chakra up, ignoring the untidy realms of physical existence associated with the first three chakras. This is an error which can make one ineffectual and passive in one's life. Without the vitality of the physical energies, one can neither enjoy life nor have much power over it. Carrying or wearing Carnelian can aid in awakening the vital energies of the three lower chakras, increasing zest for living and the willingness to takes the risks inherent in all strong actions.
Carnelian blends its energies well with all other varieties of Quartz, Jasper and Chalcedony. Combining it with Rose Quartz, Blue Lace Agate, Blue Quartz and Amethyst can bring about the harmonious activation of all seven chakras in the body. If extra grounding is needed, Smoky Quartz can be added at the root chakra. For higher vibrational activation to connect one with the Soul Star and etheric chakras, a clear Quartz laser wand can be employed. These all-Quartz stone combinations have a very easy energy flow among them. If one wishes to go further, into more intense energies, adding Moldavite at the heart chakra, Phenacite at the third eye, and Danburite or Petalite at the crown will bring all the energies up to a higher octave. And when one is using such high-frequency stones, Carnelian's ability to keep one connected to the physical self is even more important.
One's sexuality can also get a boost from Carnelian. These stones, along with Zincite and Orange Calcite, are among the most powerful for enhancing the lusty desires of the body, in conjunction with the playfulness of creative consciousness. Under proper circumstances, with the right partner, this path of passion can lead to the house of ecstasy and Divine union.
Carnelian promotes courage, vitality, self-confidence, passion, creativity, inspiration and action. This stone also helps you move forward.
