Metaphysical
properties
Carnelian
has a vibrant and spicy energy that can stimulate new life where there has been depression and lethargy. It can help to banish
apathy and general disinterest in life by introducing energy into your aura, which reminds your body and spiritual self of
what it is like to help something to grow. By holding or wearing carnelian you will not magically be cured (only you can do
that) but it will offer you a different road to travel. It can also help promote sociability and warmth to others and it exhibits
many of the properties of agate.
