Another missing review!!!…read more Over 30 years ago I discovered Chango Botanica. Chances are if you aren't familiar with this type of shop and their offering then Santeria is not on your radar. An African diasporic religion that developed in Cuba in the 19th century. A mixture of West African Yoruba and the Catholic form of Christianity. This shop provides the necessities for followers or believers as they are called. In May of 2014, Roxanne K mentioned in her review, the patriarch had passed and the son intended to carry on. I talked to his son today and he continues his commitment to carry on his father's legacy for the family in supplying the needs of the Santeria community. This is a Santeria shop catering to the needs of this Afro-Cuban religion. These people are serious about their offering and surprisingly serve a large community. The upward pressure of real estate values in this area has forced a lot of businesses to cash out for huge sums. For now, this tradition continues, and its a good thing. Better than another CVS which bought one of my favorite old Mexican restaurants down the street that was 70 years old and tore it down. Whether you have Santeria needs or not, stop in and check it out(respectfully). I'm sure they will welcome you.

My husband and I first noticed Chango Botanica when we parked in their lot before a show at the…read moreKessler. The eye-catching window displays immediately drew us in, and we made a plan to return. I'm so glad we did! Chango has an incredible selection, but the highlight of our visit was talking with Primo. We asked about a house cleansing ritual, and he knew exactly what we needed. He thoughtfully recommended a special blend from behind the counter and took the time to explain how to use it properly. Our experience was both welcoming and insightful, and I'm excited to put the cleansing ritual into practice. If you visit, I highly recommend asking questions--you're sure to find exactly what you're looking for!

I don't even know where to begin!

Botanica la Luz is not only locally owned, but we had such an amazing experience not only with the owner, but with the selection of teas and product as well! We were in the area grabbing a coffee from a local coffee truck and this botanica shop was right next door! Of course the purple ambiance outside is what initially drew us in! And I am so glad we did! The shop has everything you would need for a spiritual cleanse, from herbs you burn, to herbs you drink! We initially went in with curiosity, but ended up leaving with some herbs for our nightly tea (6.99) and my now new favorite mug for my morning coffee! I will also note, if you get a chance to speak to the owner herself, she is truly a gem! She helped my partner pick out the perfect tea herb to go with our now nightly routine and she was very knowledgeable about the health benefits of each herb! Overall a 10/10 experience and I will definitely be returning!

We were very excited…read moregoing and upon arriving we got greeted, the store is small but is so full with goodies, great selection of candles, jewelry, herbs, Florida water etc. the energy in the store was very clean, the owner and the employee were super nice, helpful, we did not feel judged or rushed at all which we appreciated because most spiritual stores rush you! They were informative whenever you asked questions and were very sweet. The altar cleansing room was delightful, ancestral & beautiful. The tea bar is also very beautiful and I'm sure once it's more finished we'll stop by to make our own. We felt like a kid in a candy store, so many goodies. This is more cultured rather white washed kind of spiritual shop. They are orisha friendly and that was my favorite part. We will absolutely come back because this was a 10/10 experience.

Baby girl had a list of crystals, and because she's thorough she probably already knew what each one was for, and only picked up a few random. We chose to purchase the rose quartz and tourmaline in the raw. They are so beautiful. The polished ones are great too but the raw are just stunning. We also bought incense. I wish I had gotten a picture of the sage. I bought one for her dad and it is huge. It will last him quite a while. Hmm...should have gotten one for myself. Smh.

Checking out right now and my head is spinning - definitely need a grounding after being around all this energy. James is INCREDIBLY knowledgeable and yes, it's way more expensive than what you can find on Amazon or wherever else but this is ALL this store has. Crystals. I came with a list and filled it plus some more that I couldn't leave here without. I'll definitely be back - not for the rock (pun intended) bottom prices but for the knowledge and variety. They offer classes and trainings and I'll be here for all of it when I can. Highly recommend!

She is always too busy to…read moreinteract with customers and when she does her tone is full of annoyance as if she has better things to do than engage with potential clients. She is also a reader, and although I have never gotten a reading from her, I would never want to receive one. If you're a practitioner I expect kindness and compassion. The spiritual community is full of people who have no mental health qualifications, let alone a spiritual background from reputable mentor or experienced establishment/spiritual organization that train people on how to be a reader/ethical. Her attitude was more than off-putting and it shocks me that she does readings to help people. The vibe is terrible. The atmosphere is not welcoming. Do better.

Everyone working there was super helpful and friendly! They had a tarot reader in-store doing readings which was so fun! They have a very large array of crystals, incense, tarot materials, teas, and more! I picked up a small emerald that was sourced from Colombia and a beautiful selenite Om crystal.

Absolutely worst reading I've had in my life. I actually looked up to Magickal Lady Duchess. She…read moreinspired me for a long time. After I booked a reading through her assistant, Magickal Lady Duchess pretty much told me she was mad because I was calling trying to get a reading. It was a Sunday and she was upset because I booked her on a Sunday. When we got on the phone she started telling me I was too young to be practicing Magick and my Magick did not work. She also told me I couldn't help no one and I needed to get my mental health together. I was crying on the phone and she actually told me that she was going to hang up on me so I can get my self together. She was cursing a lot and very judgemental and nasty to me. Then her yelp moderators removed my review. I will never support this business again. She caused me extreme mental suffering and the money I worked so hard to get and pay her went down the drain. I couldn't even take in the message due to her using so much profanity and so angry at me.

TLDR: broken glass, incorrect orders, customer service lies, website doesn't work properly, have to…read morefile chargebacks. Be warned - this is not a professional company. First, their shopping cart hasn't worked properly since they made some updates last year. When I try to place an order it says make address is incorrect (it's not). When I emailed customer service they acted like it was only happening to me. But when I called to place my order, they informed me it was happening to a lot of people and that customer service was lying to me. Sorry but I don't shop with liars and those I can't trust. And I don't want to have to call every time I need an order. I often order at night...on weekends...etc. Plus I want to verify that my order is correct myself and not rely on someone else. I've ordered glass from them, but when I do, it's never bubble wrapped. I've spoken with customer service and the assured me they would be more careful with shipping glass (lying, liars gonna keep lying). Last time I ordered glass it came in a giant box with 1 loose sheet of paper inside. That type of packaging will cause MORE damage because it allows the interior box with glass to rattle around. So half of the wrong size candle vessels (yes wrong size because I had to place my order over the phone instead of via website) was broken. I've discussed with customer service that it's really dangerous to ship glass incorrectly because then your customers are forced to handle broken glass. When I emailed them to notify of the damage, they didn't email me back. I've emailed 3 times but haven't been emailed back so now I have to file a chargeback. In the past, when I've emailed customer service I have received phone calls?? Which is crazy. I'm in an out of meetings all day. I don't have time for your call - that's why I emailed. If a customer emails you - email them back. If a customer calls you answer the phone. DUH. But it's clear that their customer service is just full of lying liars and this company is not professional.
