The name Carnelian is said to be derived from the Latin word carnis meaning flesh due to its color. Egyptians believed the stone had great power in the after life and so revered the stone that it was one of the three stones most often used in their jewelry. The various shades of red due to the presence of iron oxide are said to still the blood, calm the temper, and renew vitality. Carnelian is found throughout the world, the most renowned mines being in India, Brazil, Uruguay, and Japan. Carnelian helps banish jealousy and inspires courage. Aids perception and decision making. 

The sphere as a shape is an ancient and universal symbol that represents unity, completeness and infinity - the whole universe.  Spheres are often used to increase self-awareness and a powerful mind.  Closely connected to the spiritual nature of our complete self, spheres help to bring out integrity, clear thinking , and a better union of body, mind and spirit. Gemstone spheres radiate special energies that are created from the earth itself. Unlike the focused energy of a wand or point, a sphere emits energy in all directions equally.
