Carnelian Spiritual Properties: The Artist’s Stone

Shannon Marie

Carnelian (Sacral Chakra) (Zodiac of Taurus)

Carnelian is a stone I grew up with, so it really brings me back to my childhood. My family would walk along the Oregon Coast with buckets and we’d collect interesting looking stones that had been uncovered by the waves.  We would bring the stones home and put them in the tumbler to polish.  Many of the specimen we collected were Carnelian.  Such a beautiful and rich stone. It radiates warmth and is quite uplifting! Find out the Carnelian spiritual properties and how you can benefit from their supportive and healing blessings!

The Science of Carnelian

Carnelian is a member of the Chalcedony family. You may hear it referred to as Carnelian Agate, and that is correct as well, agate is a subset of the chalcedony family.  It is orange or orange/pink in color and is semi-transparent, so if you hold a piece up to the light, you’ll be able to see the light shine through it.

Historical Significance of Carnelian

Carnelian has a very long history and was used frequently as a protective stone by the Egyptians and to receive boosts of energy and vitality. This gemstone is said to help someone overcome the fear of death which may have come from the Egyptians using Carnelian in tombs as protection in the afterlife.

Metaphysical Attributes of Carnelian

Energy, energy, energy!  Carnelian spiritual properties are primarily associated with increasing energy, vitality and passion.  Even though it is associated with the Sacral Chakra, which is of the Water element, this gemstone tends to “fire things up.” Like when you place a pot of water over a fire, it produces steam.  If you want things to get “steamy” in your life, keep some Carnelian in your bedroom.

Carnelian doesn’t just inspire passion and vitality in the bedroom, but is also a great source of creative inspiration.  It is known as the Artist’s Stone.  Carnelian sharpens the analytical mind and awakens creativity, so one is able to take n idea from “vision” all the way though to fruition and creation.  This gemstone is perfect for overcoming Writer’s Block. It you feel stuck, uninspired, or lethargic, put on a piece of Carnelian jewelry, or wear some in your pocket, and it will help pick you up out of the doldrums.

Finally, this stone is a transmutator.  It is said to transmute negative energy to positive. For this reason, Carnelian is excellent for cleansing other stones and transmuting any built up negative energy to clear, positive crystal energy. Combining Selenite and Carnelian make for a fantastic stone clearing setting.  If you are in a period of your life where you are struggling with anger, if you are in a disagreement with someone, or are in an abusive environment, Carnelian can help to dissipate the anger or fear and transform it in positive feeling and love.

White Calcite Spiritual Properties: Stone of Spiritual Awakening

Shannon Marie

White Calcite – (Crown Chakra) – (Zodiac of Cancer)

I happen to be in love with Calcite – all of the colors! There is something immensely pure and clean feeling about the way each color simulates our Chakras. Today we are starting with the Master Cleanser of all Calcite: White Calcite. Find out the White Calcite spiritual properties and how you can benefit from their supportive and healing blessings!

The Science of White Calcite

Calcite is one of the most common minerals on this Earth. Given its ability to cleanse and purify, I consider that a good thing for the population of the Earth. Calcite is often used as an acid neutralizer and high quality calcite is also used in antacid medications. This crystal is also fairly soft and delicate, so should be handled with care.

Historical Significance of White Calcite

The name is derived from the Latin word for ‘lime’ – calx. Limestone is made up primarily of Calcite.

Metaphysical Attributes of White Calcite

All Calcite is a powerful cleanser and amplifier of energy. Just having Calcite in a room will clear it of all negative energies. If you are moving into a new home or office, place some Calcite around the entire space to give it a thorough energetic cleansing before moving in. It invigorates stagnant energy within the body. It acts as an amplifier of all energies, so it is especially helpful when using Reiki or any other energy-based healing practice. Calcite also holds warmth and energy, so can be charged with energy and intention for future spiritual practices.

White Calcite spiritual properties in particular are used to accelerate spiritual development. It clears unnecessary attachments, beliefs and energies from our system that are blocking spiritual growth. It connects us deeply to our higher consciousness so we intuitively know where we need to develop along the spiritual path. White Calcite allows us to trust in ourselves, our intuition, and be able to hang in there during difficult time. This is an excellent crystal to hold while meditating, because it clears the energy, settles the mind, and allows us to open up to guidance from our Higher Self.

Calcite helps us absorb human experiences for incorporation into our Higher Self . It enables us to process life lessons at a deeper level and incorporate those experiences into our own personal and spiritual growth. This enables us to process karma at a rapid pace and clear those debts from our Soul.

The Science of Blue Kyanite

Kyanite is primarily found in long, bladed crystal form. It is a lovely shade of light to deep blue, but it is also found in a light green color,black, and even orange. This stone is unusual because it has a wide range of hardness. You won’t often see it faceted, because the varying hardness makes it mostly unstable for cutting. However, some specimen are hard enough to cut into stunning faceted pieces.

The name comes from the Greek word kynos meaning “blue.” Like Aquamarine, its water blue color made this a popular stone for sailors to wear for luck.
