Carnelian, in its beautiful shades of orange, stimulates the Sacral Chakra, or Second Chakra, located below the navel and above the pubic bone at the front of the pelvis. It controls the flow of energy and is the center of gravity of the body. It symbolizes bold energy, warmth, and joy that lingers as much as it empowers and stimulates. It's known for being a stone of courage, endurance, energy, leadership, and motivation. Carnelians have inspired and protected us throughout history thanks to their bright, rich coloring.
