Christian Crystal Healing

What Is Crystal Healing?

Crystal healing is the belief that certain stones or crystals carry metaphysical properties that can promote physical, emotional, or spiritual healing. For example:

Amethyst: believed to promote calmness
Rose Quartz: associated with love and compassion
Citrine: said to bring prosperity and confidence

These practices often stem from New Age spirituality, Hinduism, and other non-Christian traditions.

✝️ Christian Viewpoints on Crystal Healing

1. Cautious or Opposed (Majority View)

Most traditional or conservative Christians discourage or oppose crystal healing because:

It may involve occult practices or energy manipulation not rooted in Scripture.
The Bible warns against divination, sorcery, and seeking power outside of God (Deuteronomy 18:10–12, Isaiah 8:19).
Healing is believed to come from God alone, not objects (Exodus 15:26, James 5:14–16).

Main concern: It can lead to spiritual deception or idolatry—placing trust in a created object rather than the Creator.

2. Neutral or Accepting (Minority View)

Some Christians are more open, provided that:

Crystals are seen as part of God's creation, admired like flowers or music—not worshiped.
They are used with prayer and faith in God, not in the stones themselves.
The practice does not contradict or replace biblical teaching or spiritual disciplines.

These Christians may point out that God used physical elements in Scripture (e.g., oil, mud, even shadows or handkerchiefs—see Acts 19:11–12), but always through His power, not intrinsic magical properties.

🛑 Warnings and Questions to Ask Yourself

Are you relying on the crystal more than on God?
Does this practice involve non-Christian spiritual beliefs (e.g., chakras, spirit guides)?
Is it drawing you toward deeper biblical faith or away from it?

✅ If You’re a Christian Interested in Crystals:

Focus on God as the healer, not the crystal.
Use crystals only as reminders of God's creation, beauty, or promises—not for spiritual power.
Avoid rituals or teachings that involve New Age, occult, or energy-based systems incompatible with biblical truth.

📖 Scripture for Discernment

Colossians 2:8 – “See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy...”
1 Thessalonians 5:21-22 – “Test everything. Hold on to what is good. Reject every kind of evil.”
Isaiah 42:8 – “I am the Lord; that is my name! I will not yield my glory to another…”

Summary

Crystal healing is not inherently Christian, and using it as a spiritual practice can conflict with biblical teaching. However, appreciating crystals as part of God's creation—without spiritualizing them—can be acceptable for some. Ultimately, discernment, prayer, and Scripture should guide your choices.

PIP should be paid in vouchers?

"PIP should be paid in vouchers" I'll explain in detail why this is a bad idea, but can I ask why all the solutions to the imagined mass fraud is to hurt disabled people more in the process? I'm sure some people think they're doing the right thing, many probably understand fine well it would hurt disabled people and they have forgotten they can become disabled at any point in their lives. Instead of starting with how it would hurt us (disabled people) I'll explain how it would hurt the state. It would cost MILLIONS to set up a whole IT system, set up partnerships with business, the amount of civil servants that would need to oversee invoices would just be immense. It would cost more than it would ever be intended to save, sort of like the current assessment system that sees tax payers cash endlessly going to tribunals because they've refused a disabled person help, 2/3rds of all claimants that take their case to full tribunal win. It again costs the sta...

PIP and how society treats the disabled.

Maybe the real problem with society is that people don’t think disabled people should be allowed any joy. They have to stay in their homes, moping, being sad, and not having any fun. Because everyone else is really fucking miserable. Therefore, we have to be too. And this is why people have so much of a problem with what disabled people spend their money on. “ If they are spending my hard-earned cash, then they need to be miserable” “ They can’t have nice hair or lashes” heaven forbid a disabled person makes an effort with their appearance. “ They can’t drink or smoke” but what if that is a coping mechanism for them to stay alive? “ They can’t have holidays! I can't afford a holiday, so why should they get one!” People forget that PIP is not an out-of-work benefit; it is there to cover the costs of things associated with disability and independence. People also forget that disabled people may have a working partner, families who give them money, inherita...

A hectic morning

It's 5am. The sun is shining with an orange-red glow on my net curtains, I had to capture it for you. I grabbed a coffee with collagen in it. Without the collagen my joints really hurt. Then I headed outside to water my herbs and get the washing in. Its hot out there already in this heatwave we have been experiencing. Yes its been great for getting outdoor work done, but it is exhausting as there is little breeze and my fibromyalgia plays up big time in the heat. Not to mention I could go toxic on Lithium. Can't recommend this book enough! Really good read if you want to do any type of writing. There are no secrets or rules. You have to want to write like you not someone else. I have found this book invaluable. When I sit down and take a painkiller if my back is hurting too much, I read this book. It helps. With fibromyalgia, it can flare at any point. I had to catch a taxi home the other day as it felt like wading through waist-high wet sand with blood pouring out of the so...
