Carnelian is associated with the birthstone months of August and September, which coincide with the conclusion of summer and the beginning of autumn. August and September are the months when the leaves begin to fall, signaling the end of the previous cycle and the harvest of everything that has gone before, which will keep you warm during the winter months. The Virgo zodiac sign is drawn to Carnelian's healing properties. Virgos are naturally creative and passionate, and Carnelian helps them stay in that zone. However, the Virgo can be harsh on themselves at times and second-guess their decisions. Carnelian aids individuals in overcoming imposter syndrome and maintaining their belief that what they create is magical.
Leos, too, are drawn to the fiery vitality of Carnelian. Leo, who is also a fire sign, is already a warrior, and Carnelian aids the ego-driven Leo in being true to themselves and on track, rather than allowing passion and wrath to lead the way. Carnelian will also bring you comfort if you are a Taurus.

Carnelian, like many other orange healing stones, is linked to the three lowest chakras. The Root Chakra serves as the foundation for all of our chakras; it houses our safety and keeps us connected to the world around us. Though the Root Chakra is blocked, it may feel as if you are completely out of balance and that you are continuously on edge and insecure. You can take emotional chances in life when this chakra is in flow because the core will always hold.
Our desire, closeness, and inner fire all reside in the Sacral Chakra. If yours is blocked, you may find it difficult to connect and that joy appears to be elusive. Carnelian awakens this desire for life by allowing energy to flow from the earth to the sea. The Solar Plexus Chakra, where our personal power burns, is the final chakra associated to Carnelian. This is the seat of our self-esteem and the home of our warrior spirit. You may feel as if you have no fight left in you if your Solar Plexus isn't flowing. Carnelian is come to call that warrior into action, so don't be afraid.
