I like aesthetics with stones, black cats, herbs, crystals and other "witchy" things, but I would never practice the real witchcraft, I would just have aesthetics. Can I be a Christian with this kind of aesthetics?

The short answer is yes, you can be Christian and have a witchy aesthetic. The longer answer is that it sort of depends on how you define "Christianity" and "witchcraft." Many people believe you can follow the Christian faith and still have a "witchy" vibe, or even identify as a witch and practice witchcraft! But for others, witchcraft is inherently associated with anti-Christian beliefs and practices. The important thing is to decide for yourself if what you consider "witchiness" or "witchcraft" clashes with your Christian values, without putting too much stock in what anyone else tells you. Religion and spirituality are very personal things, and it's up to you as an individual to explore what they mean to you.

Speaking as a non-religious, but spiritual person familiar with witchcraft and magical work, you can choose to appear and adapt any aesthetic you wish. What is most important is your intention. If you are not participating in magical practices and you don't have any energetic intentions to do "witchy" work, then you are not practising witchcraft. How you dress is not related. I hope that helps. :)

Practice Catholicism. As long as you don't ACTUALLY believe that the crystals give off energy, or sacrifice animals, or make potions, etc, you should be fine.

Yes. It’s your aesthetic, not a religious thing. Maybe don’t try and do sacrifices and markings (witchcraft etc) because it could come across as disrespectful to Christianity and Him. Otherwise buy yourself a crystal necklace and get a black cat!

Can you do witchcraft and be religious?
I am a Christian and I also really like witchy things. Could i do rituals and make rose water as well as be a Christian? I wouldn't be an "evil" witch. And if I can't be both, why should I give up my religion for witch, or vice versa? I don't know, and I need your advice.

I want a new aesthetic! How do I start?
I'm so tired of all my stuff, and just want to overhaul my closet. I want my clothes to go together better and I want to lean in to having an aesthetic. How do I even begin to go about doing that? I'm not quite shooting for a capsule wardrobe, but kind of want to head in that direction with a clear aesthetic.
