I remember going to Pan Pipes in Hollywood about 20 years ago. But, where I live, there were closer places to buy esoteric sundries: candles and incense and eye of newt (your mileage may vary). Suddenly, I do a google search and realize that Pan's Apothika (the spiritual successor to Pan Pipes) is literally a block and a half from where I live! This occult store has a very punk-witchy aesthetic with a hand-painted icon of Hekate, a statue of Baphomet and pentagrams formed with twigs and ribbon. It has all the staples of an esoteric store, so you can easily find candles, incense and crystals, along with jewelry, pins, stickers and patches. The clerk on duty was kind and willing to assist. In my case, I was just looking for some basics, but Pan's Apothika offers other services of the occult persuasion. And prices are actually extremely reasonable So give this place some love. read more

This is my favorite store to go to in Los Angeles. I typically only go here or the green man, but I really love the owner here. She's super helpful. She has herbs. She has more unique candle selections, and sprays. I highly recommend. read more

I have been a long time client of Vicky's. She is very thoughtful and knowledgeable with all of her products. All her products are made with love care and magic. You'll be able to find products here. You probably can't find other stores like the seven day candles in different colors. She's always willing to listen and help give advice if you need it regarding your own magical workings. I highly recommend her and her store. Why support a big box corporation like Amazon when you can help a local Witch? I would give 1000 stars if I could read more

This is a fun place to check out for all your witchery needs. The value is perfect. So many items to choose from and they aren't trying to gouge your pocket. The cost was very comparable to others. The service was super friendly. I will definitely be coming back. read more

I have been going to this store since it was Panpipes on Cahuenga. The new location is very close to the freeway and has easier street parking. Also, things can be ordered, delivered, there are options, if driving to Hollywood is difficult. Vicky is very polite, knowledgeable and helpful. The store has everything needed for your witchery needs like candles, oils, incense, books, etc. The prices are pretty good. Also, a couple of times a week there are different people that can read your cards for you, for a separate fee, an appointment is usually needed. It is definitely worth checking out. read more

Vicky is great. I love coming in here when I need a bit of a spiritual boost or to realign myself (and admittedly need to do it more often). All of her offerings are high quality and made or sourced with care, time, and attention. Just lit one of her candles the other day and immediately felt protected and more lucid. I cannot express how grateful I am that places like this still exist. Running a small, independent business is NOT EASY. Please show your love and support for them while they're here so that they can continue to be here! read more

Amazing place! Totally worth the drive! They dress candles for you in store. Old school true apothecary.

Very sweet and thoughtful bespoke work. Custom candles and perfume oils, all wonderful. Sometimes the place is busy, other times it's just you. Either way, you can talk plainly, and express what you need/what's going on. Really fair/reasonable prices. read more

Pan's Apothika is truly a gem! Vickey's wisdom and guidance are both grounding and inspiring, and she has such a gift for helping you find exactly what you need. Her hand-crafted oils and candles are filled with intention and care--you can feel their energy the moment you use them. This shop has quickly become one of my favorite places for spiritual support and beautiful, powerful tools. Highly recommend! read more

Best multi-practice work I've seen in Los Angeles. Viki is the bomb.com and I'm not being hyperbolic. Actual spiritual service being done.

Amazing place. The variety of crystals, herbs, oils, and more is one reason to go, the second being the beautiful prices and great customer service from the owners and their dog Vincent. Vincent would be reason #3 to go as he is such a good boy. I will definitely be revisiting this place whenever I am in need of such supplies, in the area, or introducing someone new to the shop. read more

I love the store so much. Whatever you're looking for this is the right spot! She is so kind and helping, and her dog is so sweet, definitely coming back! read more

Beautiful store and wonderful owner, a pillar in Los Angeles. This was my first shop and go to when I lived nearby. The owner and knows how to help, If you need something custom, or just buy a premade candle Vicky has got you! read more

They have a nice collection of spiritual merchandise. I will be by soon to look for some special gifts.

I recently discovered Pan's Apothika this year and it is my new favorite and go-to candle shop. I initially went to try out their new + full moon candles (which are dressed in house which I love). They will even dress them according to your needs/desires. This feels like the most authentic spiritual shop I've been to in LA, the service is amazing and the prices are always fair. They have a great selection of candles, jewelry, books, crystals, tarot cards, and more. Follow them on Instagram because they post a lot of updates on there like updated shop hours, workshops, in-house tarot reader pop-ups and more. My personal favorite is when they post about the details/forecast on the new moon, full moon, equinoxes and other astrological events. I also love seeing occasional guest appearances from Vincent, the adorable little doggy! read more

Pan's Apothika - I loved these bumper stickers. - Spiritual Shop Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I tried Pan's for the first time today and I absolutely over the moon (no pun intended) about the shop and the energy. I am struggling with a few things in my life and the service and care that went into crafting my candle and making sure I understand how to burn it most effectively was phenomenal. I picked up some crystals as well and unlike many shops in the area, they were very fairly priced. Selection of books was great as well - I am regretting not grabbing one while I was awaiting my turn, but I'll just have to come back. This is the real deal. Thank you!!! read more

The owner is very respectable, kind, & knowledgeable! The store is well maintained, clean & the minute you walk in you can tell the place has good energy. The oils & candles are made with care, and are made with great quality. read more

I loved this place so much! Such great energy and Vicky is just a true delight! Spent a good time talking with her and petting her dog, Vincent, the cutest little Italian greyhound! I could've spent all day in there and bought everything in the place! Vicky makes custom candles and oils for whatever protection or intent you may need. If you are in need of stones/crystals, she had them for affordable rates! On top of that, it looks like they host tarot readings if you'd like that! All in all, you can't go wrong with stopping by! I promise you'll find some treasures! read more

I have been a longtime customers of Vicky's. I used to go to her shop Panpipes over 15 years ago and I have been a customer of Pans Apothika ever since I found her again. Pans Apothika is an amazing shop. Her selection of essential oils and herbs is a dream. She has everything you could think of and her custom anointed candles are the best I've found. She is incredibly kind, professional, and knowledgeable. She takes time to listen to everyone who comes in with questions or is looking for a solution to problems. I will always remember the time I went in looking for a candle to honor my dog and help him cross over after he passed. Vicki made me a beautiful candle and I could tell she really took her time and made it perfect. She was incredibly compassionate to me and it is something I will always remember. I highly recommend Pans Apothika if you are searching for something for your spiritual practice. read more

I've been a customer since its Pan Pipes days. In its current incarnation as Pan's Apothika, Vicky and her doggie assistant, Vincent, do an amazing job of providing a warm and nurturing space for everyone from beginner to master. The shop is small but well curated with handmade candles and an eclectic selection of crystals and other items. Don't try to shop for these things on Amazon, if you are local to So CA, shopping in person here is far better! And if you see something you want on their IG page, they will ship to you. read more

Went into the apothecary and Vicki is so knowledgeable and helpful. I loved that she makes her own potions (so to speak) I will be visiting again. The reviews encourage me to visit and were on point! read more

Definitely the most amazing prices in LA! Every time I walk in I'm greeted by good energy, the cutest four legged friend, and amazing items; and every time I walk out I leave with a bag full of interesting new finds! I make the 45 mile drive just to visit!!!! Easy to find parking too! read more

I've been visiting Pan's since it was on Cahuenga! Vicky's depth of knowledge and commitment to her craft. I've found candles, REAL books on Qbalastic practices and received readings from two tarot readers here who truly hold space, empathize and suggest actionable rituals to support you. I always recommend this mom / pop shoppe to my friends because it's the REAL DEAL read more

Honestly this place is pretty cool. So beautiful and welcoming. I would die for Vincent he's such a cute little baby. He's the store's employee or owners dog. I do not know her name I completely forgot but she was knowledgeable on everything in that store and recommended so many wonderful things to help us. Definitely be coming back. read more

I have so much to say about Vicky and her gift, but I'd rather the 5 star review speak for itself. Every positive review Vicky has received she's earned 10,000%. Each time I get the urge to pick up a candle specially made by Vicky, instant universal magic happens. I've been actively practicing spiritual rituals and tapping into source for almost 15 years, and have visited my fair share of "mystic" shops, and I'm so glad I took a chance on Pan's Apothika 2 years ago. It's hands down the only spiritual shop in the entire city of Los Angeles I trust. P.S. if you can't handle a business woman running an entire store with high demand by herself, and all of her human moments, please don't go here and write her a bad review. There's enough bad energy in the world already. Peace, light, love and blessings! read more

Can't say that there's anyone in Los Angeles who can craft a better candle or spin a more powerful spell than the mysterious Vicky Adams. She's truly devoted to the art of all that is magical. Not many authentic places in this town left. Most are pricy, touristy, novel shops today. read more

Visited this store for the first time on Saturday since I have been wanting to check this place out. I usually visit the Green Man, but wanted to branch out and see what was available closer to me. Coming in I was greeted by an adorable friendly dog! And a lot of beautiful goods. Despite being with a customer the owner took time to greet me as well which was lovely! I didn't have any particular needs, just wanted to see what was up. The collection of herbs is vast and was glad I got to witness her put together an order for another nice customer and her dog in the store. (I'm sad I never got that girl's name since she was rather cool to chat with in passing!) I ended up getting a Resin Incense Sample kit, a neat three moon cat coaster and a few nazar charms to put in various purses I own. 10/10 would recommend coming here and check the store out and buy a few things. I hope one day I have a need for something so I may get to work with the owner and hear what insight she has to say about things! read more

Love this shop! Vickie is wonderful! All your candle, incense, and herb needs along with other special items!

This place is incredible, unlike anywhere I've ever been. Vicky is knowledgeable and extremely attentive to her customers. Since getting her candles made for protection, abundance and purifying... I feel like a completely new person. She also has an adorable dog, which is always a bonus. read more

I went here about three years ago, and want to write a review for that. I will likely visit again when in town. I bought many small tumbled crystal stones, a wooden pentagram wall hanging, assorted other goods as I was just coming back from a long, strenous work trip and needed a boost. I actually took my family member there with me and we all had this synchronous moment in there, where the lady suggested a turquoise stone for me, and my relative goes "Aha! I was thinking to pick the turquoise for her." Synchronous moments! I also enjoyed the ambiance of the shop, dark walnut wooden shelves, this is near Hollywood area in Los Angeles. I also recall a woman coming in somewhat upset and Vicky talking very calmly to her about energy management. Just left me with a good feeling about this particular Witch, as it is difficult to handle someone who is in a more frazzled state, and she was very professional about it. read more

Drove down here from Culver City to get some sage and goodies. I read so many awesome reviews and was super excited to visit a new place. I did not feel welcomed, the woman there greeted with a "hi" and that was all..... Left without buying anything. I'm sad I didn't get to experience the same thing others have experienced. read more

Vicky thank you so much for answering my 100 questions! Haha! But on a serious note I called and spoke to Vicky over the phone before I came in and when I arrived I was greeted by Vincent the sweetest pup! Vicky was with a customer and greeted me as I walked through the store. I met Matt who ended up doing a tarot reading for me (amazing btw) but once Vicky was finished servicing her customers she and I had a LONG talk which I loved hearing about her pov and what I needed to do for my situation. She dressed my candle with what seemed to be 50 ingredients which was amazing!!! She took so much time and care to walk me through what I needed to do and how to set my intentions. If I lived closer I would visit her everyday. read more

I've been coming to pans for a few years now, truly the best place in LA for crystals, oils, candles and tarot readings. All over good vibes and great products! read more

I came in after initially calling Vicky. She sounded like an angel on the phone. I've been in twice already. She works methodically, for my own good explaining why. I got the most amazing bath that helped a lot. Then she worked some other stuff for me. I'm new to this and have been a few other places, but nobody gave me relief or any positive feeling other than Vicky. She's the real deal. I'm so glad I found her. read more

Great little shop with a very passionate and knowledgeable owner who will take her time and explain things clearly to you. This place is the real deal. read more
