So I was doing some research on vision boards since I was interested in making one when I ran across some info that vision boards are typically used in witchcraft and the overall concept is Satanic. Is this true?!

Interesting. I thought the concept was very innocent.

It's only satanic if that's what you believe. I don't believe they are. I believe that vision boards are used a spiritual & uplifting tools.

So did I, but I do have the Secret book and there is a subtle, underlying theme that YOU can do and have anything you want..in hindsight it reminded me of when the devil tempted Jesus when he was fasting.

Yes, vision boards are satanic. As are blowing out birthday candles and making wishes, wishing on a star, writing a list of goals on paper, reading affirmations, daydreaming, making Christmas wishlists--- alladat stuff will send the devil straight to you! You can not do anything that involves wanting better for your lot unless the method has been approved and sanctioned by an approved religious organization.

There was a really long thread on this in the Christianity Fellowship forum: Are vision boards Demonic

If you search the web hard enough anything can be satanic. A vision board is just a tool to keep motivated and focused on your goals.

I'm not religious. But here is for you.
Habakkuk 2:1-3
King James Version (KJV)
2 I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved.
2 And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.
3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.

I think vision boards like anything else can be viewed in different ways by different people. What sets it aside is the intention behind it. If you use a vision board to motivate you then no its not satanic but if its there to 'harm' someone (I can't think of how it can at the moment lol) then yes it is. Its all to do with the individual, the purpose and your motives.

I didn't write that to disparage your question. Not at all. I wrote that to underscore hypocrisy I have seen surrounding this topic, which usually comes from those who feel that their chosen path is the only right one, and all others be damned. Basically, you have to do what feels right to you. If making a board feels right then it feels right. If upon making one red flags go up, then stop and find whatever else that works.

huh?
God gave us free will......so it is true that You can do.... I'm not sure but I do believe the bible advocate self sufficiency as well as faith......
I just think that many Christians spend so much time worrying about what the devil want and don't want, that it makes me wonder if its not truly the devil they worship.
I don't spend any portion of my day thinking of what the devil wants or don't like. One reason I'm not fanatic of organized religion. They plant seeds of negativity in many people's minds and keep them from doing better. I have watched people who spend hours speaking about faith, faith, faith and jesus and the lord all day everyday, know every verse of the bible and still do the most F ed up stuff to the people they know and love. I watch them do evil 45 minutes out of service. I find overly religious people are often self righteous, judgmental, closed minded and hateful and some can even be dangerously scary to deal with. If your religion is suppose to make you better why do your actions, words, and deeds display the reverse?

Oh, but no one is perfect. God knows my heart. It's about the word, not about the people!
I spent birth through age 22 dealing with the issues mentioned in your post. So many people ride or die for beliefs they do not even take seriously, as based on their actions.

The vision board is the devil.
Rap is the Devil.
Sex is the devil.
Rock and Roll is the devil.
High Heels are the devil
Alcohol is the devil.
Masturbation is the devil.
Homosexuality is the devil.
Clubbing is the devil.
Lady Gaga is the devil
The devil made you do it............
People will believe whatever and run with the stated above, all while the devil is behind the podium, under their noses, pimping, molesting children, and spreading AIDS. I've always had the eerie feeling the Church is the devil's playground and he has it on lock.

Basically vision boards can become evil if one starts to idolize it and the goals on it. I'm not saying that people shouldn't have goals or use tools to try to better themselves. We just need to remember that having faith in God first then ourselves will get things done.
Also the book of Habakkuk is about having faith in God's power, not our own.

Would not the fact that many are on a hair forum which is meant to idolize growing one's hair to a certain goal become a form of vision board? Thus the forum is evil cause day in day out there are a vast number of people who log on to a board dedicated to idolizing hair.

right back at ya! 
Well...ummmm, it is somewhat of a vent for me since I've had bad experiences with religious faith.
This isn't directed at OP, but it baffles me when two entities that have nothing to do with each other are correlated to be sinful.
Like I would never in a million years link a vision board to satan. Who came up with that idea?

Maa Maa omo mti now you know i ain't say alladat...buuuuutt if growing hair has become the center goal of their life then idk maybe.
anything can be used for evil just as it can be used for good. some things are necessary and some things are expedient/extra.
Well it is not a vent thread for me. It is what I see. We spend our lives being told how we should live our lives and how our faith should be. In the name of religion and god many have suffered and died. The christians, the jews, the muslims have been killing eachother for centuries over god. They all fight in the name of god. The same god. To me religion comes with so much hypocrisy and and contradictions. I can quote one verse to agree with something and I can quote another to disagree. I have certain beliefs and I do not need religion or verses to back it up. Do good, be kind, respect life, respect eachother, give and live the best life you can without getting in the way of another. Aside from those everything else is BS.

The thing is, who is to say what is expedient or extra?

did not say that you said all that. I am speaking to you main point
and in essence being on a hair forum member/lurker is according to your main point a form of idolizing.
But I did notice that you cleaned it up by adding center goal. To dedicate years and money on a goal of achieving either healthy hair or long hair that can be considered center goal. whether center, main or low goal it's still a goal when we become a member. It's the very reason why people joined, might not be a reason why people stayed but it is the center of our existence on this forum.
so with that said, logic (according to your statement) would mean that we are involved in something satanic.

yea i understand.
i think it can get intertwined/confused when some could be using the board as a nice reminder to have faith/work hard and others could be using the board as a tool to make something happen on its own. but as long as it's not being used as a voodoo doll then what do i know?

um.... as it applies to the OP...the scripture is out of context.
the vision Habakkuk referred to was prophetic meaning directly from God. It wasn't a vision/goal he had for himself. but this one of my favorite portions of scripture though and I'm glad that you mentioned it.as to the OP, if you are a Christian then I encourage you to do research...starting with the Bible.
I am a Christian and would not create a vision board as it is discussed on the "Vision Board" thread and many other places mainly b/c the goals, dreams, etc represented are often fleshly. basically anything that we desire. It could be a car, education, house...all great things, not necessarily evil in and of themselves. The constant struggle as a Christian is a desire to fulfill God's desires and not our own (even those that are "bad") believing that His time and purpose are best.
We will always want things that aren't a part of God's vision. For me creating a physical representation of those things is not beneficial and spiritually it can be destructive (i.e. i make certain things an idol). Mind you, you can create an idol in your heart w/o a vision board.
That aside I believe if you are called to be a physician or reduce spending to get out of debt and decide to encourage yourself by writing it on a paper and putting in on your dresser mirror then cool. Some things like "I want to stop cursing out folk" needs no scriptural consultation b/c you know that's a goal in alignment with God's word. Writing down what God has called you to do or His word is not evil or satanic. Actually, it is what prophets have done for centuries. Basically, just check your motives.
All a man's ways seem innocent to him, but motives are weighed by the LORD.
-Proverbs 16:2
