Orange Agate Crystal Meaning and Benefits

Like all agates, orange agate is a form of chalcedony, which is a form of quartz.  Yes, the orange is natural in color and can range from a pale to deep, dark orange.  And, like all agates, it will have various patterns and bands, making each piece quite unique.  Mostly opaque, orange agate will have a waxy luster and is used as jewelry and even decorative pieces, most often found as a palm stone or even as a slab.  What people like is that when you hold it up to the light, it allows the clear orange to shine through, almost like that of a bright, orange sun.  Because of this vibrant color, orange agate has gained a lot of popularity, as it’s said to be one of the better stones for protection.

Orange agate vs. carnelian

Carnelian is usually more of a brighter, more vibrant orange, and is also a variety of chalcedony, which is a form of quartz.  Carnelian is known for its reddish-orange to orange color and will have various bands just like all agates.  It’s a reason it’s commonly referred to as a “carnelian agate.”  However, carnelian is a subtype of agate, whereas an orange agate is a variety of chalcedony which is characterized by its unique orange color.

There are a lot of similarities between the two, including metaphysical properties.  Both are known to help with creativity, motivation as well as bring in an abundance of luck.  Carnelian is also said to be a great grounding stone, which is said to help bring you closer to mother earth.

The key difference here, believe it or not, is the color.  Carnelian is more of a red, whereas orange agate is simply orange.  This is the best way to distinguish the two.
