Carnelian Cicada~CRCCICAD

Carnelian Cicada~CRCCICAD. Cicadas, for many, represent personal change, renewal, rebirth, and transformation. Unlike a butterfly, moth, or other insects that undergo complete metamorphosis, cicadas have no pupal state. They transform from one fully-functioning state to another — one viable form, in a small amount of time, changing to another. The cicada’s transformation is similar to that of human beings. If a person wants or needs to make a change in their life, they don’t enclose themselves in a pod and emerge the next spring (I suppose some might) — more likely they remain in their human form as they change. A lot of people use cicadas to symbolize their own personal transformation, in art, song, poetry, or even a tattoo. The cicada inherently symbolizes what they were (nymph) and all the glory of what they have become (adult form). Cicadas can also be a symbol for a musician or singer since they sing. Since cicadas sing mostly during summer months, they are a symbol of summer and a precursor to the harvest. When cicada appears to you it speaks of a need to come out from hiding, to break free of what restricts you. Carnelian stimulates analytical capabilities and precision, enhances perceptiveness to situations and awakens ones talents. It is also used to produce inspiration from, and connected-ness with, the spiritual worlds. It protects against envy, fear, and rage, and helps banish sorrow from the emotional structure. Carnelian is said to remove fear of death, bringing an acceptance of the life cycle. It provides an energy conducive to the stabilization of energy in the home, and strengthens the bonds of love between parent and child. The message of carnelian is that since one IS love, there is nothing to do but offer the love. It stimulates inquisitiveness and dispels apathy and passivity. It reminds us of the balance between connecting with the Divine and actually taking action on the guidance and inspiration we have received, we must take initiative and signal the universe by our actions that we are truly prepared to do what it takes to achieve our dreams, that we are co-creators with the Divine.
