Exposing the Mystery of Megaliths: A Christian Perspective
Megaliths and the Occult: What Christians Need to Know
By Teresa Morin, President of Touch of God Int’l Ministries
From the towering stones of Stonehenge to the enigmatic dolmens of Europe and Asia, megaliths—massive stone structures arranged in deliberate patterns—dot the Earth like markers from a bygone era. Some of these ancient sites are aligned with celestial bodies, suggesting possible astrological or spiritual purposes, while others served as ceremonial or burial grounds. Though their original function remains uncertain, they continue to draw interest from spiritual seekers, pagans, and tourists alike.
But as believers in Christ, we must ask: What spirit empowered these structures? Were they simply expressions of early culture and ingenuity, or is there something more spiritually deceptive behind them?
Let’s take a closer look through biblical discernment, asking vital questions to ensure we don't unknowingly engage with spiritual counterfeits rooted in paganism or the occult.
What Are Megaliths?
The term megalith comes from the Greek words mega (great) and lithos (stone). These structures often consist of large upright stones, sometimes capped by horizontal stones, arranged in circles, rows, or burial chambers. Stonehenge is perhaps the most famous example, believed to have been constructed over 4,000 years ago. Some megalithic sites also feature ceremonial roadways that align with solstices or equinoxes, hinting at astrological observance.
While modern archaeologists debate the exact purposes of these structures—be they religious, social, or astronomical—many scholars agree they were places of spiritual significance to the cultures that built them. And herein lies the concern: What spirits were they honoring?
How to Discern Megaliths Through a Biblical Lens
As Christians, we're instructed to "test the spirits" (1 John 4:1) and examine everything by the Word of God. Before accepting any ancient practice or site as benign or a historical curiosity, we must ask key questions rooted in Scripture:
1. Who Founded These Modalities or Structures?
Megaliths were typically constructed by prehistoric or early pagan cultures. These were not God-fearing civilizations, but rather polytheistic or animistic societies that worshipped creation rather than the Creator. There is no record of these builders following the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. In fact, Scripture warns us not to adopt the practices of nations that served other gods (Deuteronomy 18:9-12).
2. What Was Their Spirituality?
The spirituality behind these structures was not neutral. Archaeological findings suggest sun worship, moon observances, and seasonal fertility rites. In other words, many megaliths functioned as temples of idolatry or portals for communing with false gods. This is strictly forbidden in Scripture.
“They sacrificed to demons, not to God… gods they had not known…” – Deuteronomy 32:17
We must recognize that spiritual power exists in such places, but not the power of God. Instead, these stones became altars to principalities and demonic forces that have masqueraded as deities throughout history.
3. What Culture Did It Come Out Of?
Most megaliths originated from Celtic, Druidic, or Neolithic cultures—none of which honored the God of the Bible. Druids, for instance, were known to practice divination, human sacrifice, and spiritual communion with the dead. These practices are strictly condemned in Scripture.
“There shall not be found among you anyone who… practices divination, or tells fortunes, or interprets omens, or a sorcerer…” – Deuteronomy 18:10
When Christians visit, venerate, or participate in ceremonies at these ancient sites, they risk spiritual defilement, even unknowingly.
4. What Were Their Core Beliefs?
The builders of megaliths were often animists, believing that spirits inhabited the natural world—trees, rocks, rivers, and animals. They believed stones held energy or life force, an idea echoed in today’s New Age beliefs like crystal healing and earth energy lines.
This belief is completely opposed to Scripture, which teaches that God is the Creator and Lord over all. No object, no matter how ancient or mysterious, contains innate power or divinity.
5. Who Was Their God or gods?
The answer here is sobering: their gods were Baal, Asherah, sun deities, or other pagan idols. These false gods demanded sacrifices and lured people away from Yahweh. God often judged Israel for adopting such practices.
“They built high places to Baal… to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire to Molech.” – Jeremiah 32:35
The same demonic spirits behind those idols are still operating today. When people engage in “harmless” ceremonies at megalithic sites—chanting, meditating, or aligning with “earth energies”—they open themselves up to spiritual deception.
Modern Fascination with Megaliths: A Spiritual Trap?
New Age practitioners often flock to these ancient stone sites, treating them as sacred spaces or energy portals. They conduct solstice rituals, divination, or crystal alignments—sometimes even claiming healing or awakening experiences.
But Scripture is clear: God’s people must not mix light with darkness.
“What fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness?” – 2 Corinthians 6:14
Even well-meaning Christians may be tempted to romanticize these places as symbols of lost knowledge or ancient wisdom. However, we are warned not to lean on our own understanding (Proverbs 3:5) or seek power apart from the Holy Spirit.
Closing Warning and Encouragement
If you’ve participated in visiting or honoring these sites, even as a tourist or in curiosity, repent and renounce any spiritual ties you may have unknowingly formed. Ask the Lord to close every open door to the enemy and bring cleansing through the blood of Jesus Christ.
Remember, Jesus is our only gateway to the supernatural. Any other path—no matter how old, intriguing, or mystical—leads to spiritual bondage, not freedom.
