The Power of Carnelian

OOH carnelian! A beautiful grounding stone that I have found in art and jewelry that my grandmother brought back with her from Mecca. I was first drawn to this stone at a young age. My grandmother made a spiritual trip to Mecca and came back a changed woman. Not only that but she brought back huge pieces of a reddish stone. I always felt calmer and happier with the stone around my neck or in the palm of my hand. For years, I wore the necklace but had no idea what the stone was or what it meant. Finally, I figured out that this powerful stone was in fact carnelian.

Carnelian is a stone that brings joy, peace, energy and feelings of gratitude. It is also known as a stone of motivation, endurance, leadership and courage. Did you know that carnelian stirs up our sexuality? This makes perfect sense because it is associated with the root chakra! In recent years, I have carried a carnelian stone in my pocket while at work. Sometimes when I feel overwhelmed I put the stone at my heart chakra. It instantly brings a sense of stability and concentration. Without fail, I feel the power of the stone coursing through my body and within a few moments I can put the stone away and continue my day.
