The name Carnelian is derived from the Latin carnis, flesh. Deep red Carnelian might be heat-treated and, held against light, shows stripes, while natural Carnelian shows a cloudy color. Carnelian was beloved of the Egyptians, who believed that it assisted the soul on its journey and had great protective powers in the afterlife. They wore it to calm anger, jealousy, and envy. A stabilizing stone with high energy, Carnelian anchors into the present reality, and is excellent for restoring vitality. Carnelian has the ability to cleanse other stones.
