Carnelian Bronze Age artifacts using Carnelian found on the Greek island of Crete have been dated as far back as 1800 BCE. Throughout history, including during the Roman Empire, Carnelian has been associated with courage, vitality, & motivation. Known as the 'Stone of Motivation,' Carnelian is believed to inspire action, helping people overcome hesitation & procrastination. With its deep orange color, Carnelian is associated with the 2nd Chakra, or Sacral Chakra, which regulates creativity & sexuality. Carnelian is widely regarded as the birthstone for the zodiac sign of Virgo.

Natural Shells People created the earliest-known jewelry from natural shells. There is evidence that people in modern-day Algeria, Israel, & Morocco drilled holes into marine shells to make beads 100,000 years ago. It is in these same areas of North Africa & the Middle East that shells came to symbolize life. In ancient mythology, the Goddess of Love & Fertility, Venus, is often depicted as rising from the sea in a clamshell. Perhaps you've seen Botticelli's painting from 1485?

Red Garnet Historically associated with the heart, blood, inner fire, & life force, Red Garnet is thought to aid in easing heartbreak. The stone, dating back to ancient civilizations, symbolizes love, passion, & courage. Red Garnet is linked to the 1st Chakra, or Root Chakra, representing grounding, stability, & security. Linked to revitalization, Red Garnet is thought to assist emotional healing, helping people let go of deeply rooted traumas. It is also associated with the zodiac signs of Capricorn & Aquarius.
