Carnelian is a stone that represents warmth, fiery, life, vibrancy, strength, bravery, courage when speaking in public, and creativity. Its various hues are believed to hold specific meanings and properties, such as red carnelian for courage and strength, and orange carnelian for creativity and joy.
An amazing stone for the Sacral Chakra. Carnelian is personally the gemstone that I use for that chakra. 
In contemporary times, carnelian is thought by some to enhance self-esteem and creativity, to combat feelings of inadequacy, to increase physical energy and overcome insomnia. In the home, carnelian is believed to increase motivation towards action.
Carnelian is a stone of action which teaches us to work for our dreams and not just wait for them to manifest. A stone of attraction.
