Very informative Hub. I don't recall ever hearing about the Carnelian Stone, but its healing properties are wide ranging. The ruby was always associated with July birthdays, but not this stone. I think it is very beautiful. I will share this information with my son and daughter who both have July birthdays. Thanks for another good Hub.
