The orange-colored carnelian crystal is a “feel better” stone. It boosts fertility and stimulate sexuality. In crystal healing we use it to purify and stimulate the Sex Chakra. It is good for blood-related illnesses and influences the reproductive organs of both sexes.
The carnelian crystal is one of the basic crystals of our Crystal Healing Level 1 Course.
Carnelian comes from the Latin word ‘caro’, ‘carnis’, which means flesh, fleshy. It is also sometimes called Cornelian.
Its healing power was already known in ancient times. It stops a nosebleed, if we put a small piece of carnelian in a glass of warmed wine then we drink the lukewarm wine.
Egyptians made death masks from this stone. The goddess Isis protected he dead with a carnelian amulet she named Thet.
The Romans used it as a protection against accidents and poisoning. In India it is the children’ protective stone, because it can bring down high fever.
