What are the qualities of your fire element and how does Carnelian gemstone help bring you balance?
Your fire element represents Sun energy. Leo, Aries, and Sagittarius represent the fire element in the zodiac. It is important to nurture your emotional well-being, especially if you are a fire sign.4 Practicing self-care is vital to maintaining a healthy balance of your energy elements. When in balance, your fire element embodies warmth, and generosity, and invites laughter, love, joy, trust, and passion into your life.
If you have a strong fire element you tend to be the life of the party and a spark of inspiration to others – you motivate those around you to follow their intuition in a fierce and enthusiastic way. You’re upbeat and ready to take on the challenges you face. Carnelian can help maintain these positive qualities in you.1.
When you don't take time for self-care and to nurture your spirit, you can become imbalanced. When you have an imbalance in your fire element you seek validation from others constantly. You become an avid attention seeker, and in pushing people for validation, you actually begin to push people away. With an imbalance, you’ll experience:
rage, anger, depression, anxiety, crippling feelings of inadequacy
You might experience physical symptoms such as breakouts and hot flashes. Also, too much or too little fire element can affect your sexuality.
But don't worry, you are not alone. Here's how you can apply Carnelian to your life to get back on top! No pun intended.
