Carnelian is an extremely energizing crystal. Just like the fire it resembles, Carnelian's gifts lie in sparking energizing flames in you.

Carnelian is the stone of joy, confidence, and self-empowerment. Again, think of it as a stone that stokes your inner fire, igniting your energy from within.
It is also great for tapping into creative energy. It aligns with our second (sacral) chakra—responsible for creativity—and enables us to tap into our inner gifts and strengths. It can also be used to remove blocks that leave us feeling burnt out, uninspired, and stuck.

Since carnelian is associated with the sacral chakra, it's also great for working with sexual energy. Creativity and sexual energy both come from the sacral chakra. carnelian can help amplify your intentions in these realms.
