This store is great! It's definitely one of the friendlier witchy & metaphysical shops in North…read moreCounty. I loved how open the store was, and all of the products were organized really well. I think the product curation is pretty solid and could benefit every level of witch/spiritualist. They have crystals, candles, deity statues, spell oils, herbs, and a whole ton of other witch adjacent things. I'm personally not into psychics, but they have a wide variety of people that they work with. If you're into that, I'd def suggest checking this place out and looking into the readers. A few customers were taking about how happy they were with their readings! I also dig the store's community involvement with hosting various events and workshops. The store cat, Louie, is an absolute vibe. He's so sweet and friendly! I really loved being greeted by him and the occasional run in once my partner and I started to wander around the store. He even 'blessed' some of my crystals :) The owner is also super friendly and knowledgable! This place is a definite stop if you're into crystals and witchy stuff. Parking is a little annoying, but that's downtown Escondido for you lmao. I like to park a few blocks away and walk over, as the store is def worth it!

(Such as gems with stone still on them) for cheaper and STILL look amazing, I managed to stay within my budget and still have more money to spend in other stores while getting a haul I was happy with. The man running the counter was super sweet and welcoming to myself and my brother. I would 100% recommend this place for anyone in the area if you like pretty stones, they have things for beginning collectors or people who just enjoy a pretty stone once in a while and ALSO have stuff for more advanced collectors or people looking for cool home decor like a lamp crystal or sculped gem statement pieces. I will be recommending this to my friends.

She was so helpful and explained the various properties and originations of the crystals I was interested in. I bought some Selenite, Bismuth, Labradorite, Yellow Calcite, Fluorite, Black Kyanite, Ocean Jasper, and Pink Tourmaline! The energy that Elivia has is so powerful and it was a lovely experience to meditate with different stones and realize their healing power for myself. I am definitely going to be coming back to buy more crystals because I use them when I meditate and they aid in the process of healing. Currently, she is accepting calls to learn more about her shop and where her shop is located. I definitely recommend setting up an appointment to visit her shop and check out the beautiful crystals and jewelry she has.

I honor mixing cultures in certain ways but a smudge stick with chakra rose petals?? Who is this even marketed to? This plus the chakra candle... chakra items that have nothing to do with you actual chakra work? This is a place that is using key words and stealing items randomly from other cultures and mixing them up to make you feel like you're buying something to make yourself better, or at least to help you pretend to do so. Anyway, cute items, good prices for them.. but it isn't what you think it is. They could maybe search for better inventory to be and seem a bit more legitimate but these tarot decks and near-offensive items are not quite the right things to be buying for your daily or overall energy-work. Revamp the items sold, and maybe it will work out a bit further than just trying to dupe the public into buying your nick nacks.

If you're looking for a gemstone store with exceptional customer service and an educational experience, check out this place. From the moment you walk in, you can tell that the staff truly cares about your needs and is dedicated to providing you with the best possible experience. Arturo is an especially knowledgeable and helpful member of the team. He takes the time to listen to your needs and preferences, and then offers personalized recommendations based on his extensive knowledge of gemstones. Whether you're a seasoned collector or a newcomer to the world of gemstones, he has a way of explaining things that is both informative and engaging. One thing I really appreciated about Arturo is that he never made me feel like I was being pressured into making a purchase. He was more interested in making sure I was well-informed and happy with my decision than in making a sale. That kind of honesty and integrity is rare these days, and I was truly grateful for it. Overall, I can't recommend this gemstone store enough. If you're in the market for a new piece of jewelry or just want to learn more about gemstones, this is the place to go. The customer service is exceptional, the selection is top-notch, and the educational experience is a great bonus that makes every merchandise here become more interesting. read more

If I could select zero stars I would. One of the Co-Owners, Patti, is one of the most rude, bitter, miserable and disrespectful people I have had the unfortunate experience of having met in my lifetime. She puts on the happy, smiling friendly face to customers and then treats other people like worthless animals, namely, the way she treats her employees behind the scenes....horrible person, horrible, horrible, horrible. read more
