• Health, Momentum, Public speaking • Set of Three tumbled gemstones • Approximately 1/2" to 3/4" in size As far back as ancient Egypt, carnelian was set into jewelry, and worn to avert anger, jealousy, and gloomy thoughts. It was also placed in graves, to protect the soul after death. Carnelian is said to be an excellent stone for those who fear public speaking, as it will calm the nerves, and make the speaker eloquent and compelling. Carnelian also lends courage and self-esteem. It aids in overcoming lethargy and doubt, and builds momentum, enthusiasm, and motivation for whatever project you may be working on. Because of its red color, carnelian is seen as having a special connection to the physical body, and particularly to blood. It has been used to treat various symptoms, including menstrual cramps, nose bleeds, and back pain. Carnelian is a traditional gift for the 17th anniversary.
