Carnelian is a stone of protection in general and especially from anger, jealousy, and fear. The creative impulse it encourages can help with the manifestation of intent.
Carnelian can bring good fortune from enhanced courage and strength which can lead to a renewed sense of purpose and self-worth. By these amplified positive attributes, carnelian can ease unhappiness and a sense of hopelessness. It is sometimes called the “actor’s stone”.
