Red Agate

Red Agate is a Seeker Transformer Crystal. Seeker Transformers are talismans used when the desire is to find a way to transform a part of ones life to a more desirable state.

Seekers are used when we need some help to find a new path, a new approach, or in any quest to gain that which we desire but do not yet possess. 

When they possess the Earth Power of the Transformer, Seekers such as Red Agate have the power to aid us to find new relationships that will transform some part of our life.

Agates are often small, and usually polished.  They are absolutely perfect for personal talismans.  Easy to carry in ones pocket or purse.  They are hard and durable.  Brightly colored ones like this one work best. 

Chose these by the vibrancy and interest of their designs.  Your mind needs to connect with their color and design for best results. 

Scarlet combines the energy of the pure red ray and the exuberance and joy of the orange in a precious gift of nature. Scarlet is the color of strength and vitality, both physical and spiritual.

Athletes, soldiers, workers, and all for whom physical strength is vital can benefit from the rays of a scarlet crystal. Workout efforts can be enhanced and an overall increase in vitality will be observed with careful use of scarlet crystals. Weightlifters, body builders, and track and field competitors can gain significantly from these crystals.

Scarlet crystals are one of the natural birthstones of those born in the first month of autumn (September 23–October 21).

This red agate is perfect for devotions to Ceridwen, the Welsh Mother, and Knowledge Goddess.

Additionally, like other agates, it can be used in devotions to Bona Dea, the Roman Earth Goddess of Fertility; Callisto, the Greek Moon Goddess; Chirakan-Ixmucane, the Mayan Creator Goddess; Clota, the Goddess of the River Cldye; and Gaia, the Greek Earth Mother.

This Red Agate, with its Scarlet Color Ray of Influence is associated with the First Chakra, the Base Chakra which is located at the base of the spine and radiating through the legs and feet. This is the grounding Chakra and deals with the health of the physical body. When it is out of balance you will feel flighty and physically adrift. This Red Agate can be used effectively in crystal healing when the Base Chakra is in need of realignment.
