Motivation, vitality and courage.
Red carnelian agate is known as a stone of motivation, vitality and courage. Called the good will stone, it is said to absorb negative energy, and it is associated with creativity, an open mind and a receptivity to finding new solutions to old problems. It is sometimes also called the grounding stone and the Earth stone.
It is sometimes called the crystal of fortitude, the crystal of inspiration or the stone of protection, and is thought to be good for action, emotional control, fear and calming.
Ancient civilizations treasured carnelian for its bold red hue, associating it with vitality, courage and protection. Warriors wore it as a talisman to boost their strength and courage in battle, and artists and poets revered it, believing it inspired artistic expression and ignited passion.
