Are Crystals Harmful?

I was browsing through the internet just moments ago and stumbled upon a interesting website. http://www.clarity-of-being.org/dark...lf_made_demons

The author claims that

Crystals are all harmful, though some more so than others, and NONE genuinely has in the slightest degree the protective qualities that are widely claimed for certain types, so put away or (much better) discard any that you have. Moldavite, although technically not a crystal, is extremely harmful in being a particularly powerful ungrounding agent, and thus potently opens you to the astral sub-reality and thus the dark force, and has no genuine protective effects, so it too is for discarding and certainly not carrying on your person. If you have any crystals and supposedly energy-active stones such as moldavite, it is not enough not to actively use them. You need to get them out of your living space as soon as possible, because they continue to progressively weaken you as long as they are in any part of your energy system, which typically would extend for more than two metres radius around your body.

What do you guys think?

You're seriously going to listen to that? Crystals only have power because people give them power, they believe so much that the crystal helps their energy where it actually starts to help them, the plasebo effect.

I personally don't believe in that. I have moldavite and I find that I feel quite at home with it. Although I have seen people hold my moldavite and claim it burns. I think it depends on crystals. They all vibratate at different rates. But I do think it is what you make of them. If you think they are just pretty rocks, then that is what they are. To me the author of this article probably had a few too many bad experienes with crystals for them to write such.

I definately don't believe that, maybe the author is one of those fanatics who finds 'evil' in everything....

Crystals have been used for thousands of years by many different tribes shamans and healers they work on the highest vibrations. They are imprinted with vibrations of mother earth and the divine power there are vibrations that may not blend with others. The true art to crystals is knwoing how to unlock the knowledge and power of the crystals not harmful just we need to know how they work and what attributes they contain to release energy and aid healing the only harm would come from the lack of knowledge of the user

i am yet to use crystals, i just got mine, i am Reiki healer and i when i held my crystals i felt only good vibes. It feels very good to have them. are you going to believe in hand down words from some one else or trust your own heart and vibes?

I just went to my routine sub forum and found this wonderful message and thought to post it here, it is just after i replied to your message, i think this message is for you too.

Amazing isn't it how everything in this universe is connected !

Crystals aren't harmful they can only do good. However, an inexperienced person using some of the more powerful one's such as moldavite may experience some unpleasant side effects but these would be short lived. Having said that i guess it all depends how sensitive a person is to crystals and their healing properties. Some feel nothing from them and believe they are nothing more than rocks. While other's like myself, believe in and have experienced their healing powers.

I don't agree with whoever authored those words, and the reason I don't agree is not based on belief or the teachings of this one or that one... I don't agree because I have personal experience that illustrates otherwise, thus my own inner knowing says he or she is incorrect in their assumptions I WILL say this, though... crystals amplify energy. If a person has dark thoughts or leanings, those too will be amplified by crystals. That could create a most unpleasant effect, but it would not be the crystals creating it, it would be the person using them. Over my years as a practicing metaphysician and ordained minister/reader/counselor I have used crystals for healing, attunement to spirit, and opening to the world beyond the ordinary senses. They have always served me well and complimented my work.

I don't believe that. All crystals vibrate on a wide range of energy levels, and the crystal feels different to each person because we all perceive the energy emitted differently. A crystal with a high energy level may make one uncomfortable because the energy is too much to handle, however, to another, the crystal may feel powerful and right.
