Red is the color of energy, love, and life. It motivates us. It is a very strong color—the color of fire and blood. It is emotionally intense and affects humans by raising our blood pressure and speeding up our metabolism.
Red is a call to action, a battle cry, and a sign of warning. It excites us, raises our enthusiasm, and gives us more energy. Red is the natural birthstone of those born in mid-autumn (October 22–November 20).
Red Crystals Bring You Energy, Courage, Passion, and Love
Red crystals are used when the situation needs passion: active, involved, and energetic action. Red empowers, uplifts, and engulfs. It cures apathy. It gets things done. Red is action, drive, determination, and motivation.
If you are suffering from a lack of power, listlessness, or a low emotional state, you need more red. Like the scarlet ray, the red ray brings us self-confidence that is built on fearlessness. When the need is for action without hesitation or self-doubt, use a crystal with a fiery ray of bright red.

Dark red rays of influence have a wide variety of uses. The dark red stones are particularly useful for increasing devotion and seeing the seriousness of life.

Red crystals can help deal with balance issues and/or blockages of the Root Chakra, the first of the seven Chakras.
The Root Chakra is located at the base of the spine and controls the energy for kinesthetic feeling and movement. It is the foundation of physical energy and spiritual energy for the body.
When it is physically out of balance the symptoms will manifest themselves as lethargy, low levels of activity, low enthusiasm, and a need for constant stimulation. You may experience lower back pain, or suffer from leg pain or immune system disorders.
