I was really happy to see that their main location is back open and ready for business after the fire that tore through the shop. When we stopped by a few weeks ago, the store was already well stocked, with just a few shelves still being filled in here and there. It's great to see them bouncing back so quickly. The staff here continues to be one of the best parts of the experience--always lovely, welcoming, and genuinely helpful without being pushy. On this visit, I found exactly what I had been looking for: a huge cauldron. It was missing its lid, and they were kind enough to knock a few dollars off the price, which I really appreciated. Parking is usually easy enough with street parking available nearby, which is a big plus for this area. If you're into witchy, spiritual, or metaphysical items, this shop should absolutely be a staple in your rotation. They have a great selection, and the atmosphere alone makes it worth the visit. read more

This place used to be cool for a fun run in the metaphysical world but it's very "mainstream" and generic at this point. Expensive and fake crystals, heavy energy- feels very much so like it dwells in the "shadow" side of things, but the worst part about it are the unprofessional cashiers. I called and spoke on the phone with two different people and they were both extremely off putting- so much so that I'm actually leaving a review about it. Unfortunately I don't have a desire to come back to this place, for any reason when there are better shops that provide genuine support in this realm. I would not spend my money here on anything, from readings to candles or books. read more

Been coming here for years, it is one of the only extensive metaphysical shops in Los Angeles. Have had readings done some better than others. Like with everything you have to take it with a grain of salt. After Covid my favorite reader disappeared. She was able to connect to my deceased friends and animals. I have never had issue with any of the staff, I am sure they get people who think the store is a novelty. I was worried after the fire they wouldn't come back but glad to know they are still there. read more

They sell fake crystals and call them died quartz. I bought several bracelets in the amount of $42 yesterday, and even talked to a very sweet employee who helped me figure out what the crystals were. Today I wore the "tiger's eye" and "aventurine" bracelet, and my friend pointed out they weren't real. I took a picture so you can see how they are not authentic. I came back to the store and calmly and politely explained the situation, and asked for a refund. The cashier's response: WE DON'T DO REFUNDS. I asked what could they do since her coworker told me it was a real Tiger's Eye crystal, and she became annoyed and said I could exchange for another bracelet. When I asked if she could show me where the real crystals were she replied "that's what we got, best case they are died quartz." I told her I'd like to exchange for a different item (book, candles, etc) and she became even more annoyed and replied "Ugh! Fine!". Long story short, I found a selenite small tower and asked if it was real, and she then focused on a phone call that just rang and aggressively said "WAIT!", then answered the phone with "Yeah?! WHAT?! She can't, CALL IN 5 MIN!!!" And forcefully hung the phone with "UGH! GODDAMN IT!!!" She made me feel like I ruined her day, when they are the ones selling counterfeit products. They normally charge way more than others stores for incenses and Florida water, but I never expected that they were selling plastic bracelets and calling them authentic crystals (and when confronted they say they are actually died quartz, which they are not." The aggression and rudeness of the attendee was just the last drop for me to never come back here. There are way better stores in the Valley. read more

My friend is getting interested in Tarot and I have always wanted to visit this store so his birthday was the perfect reason. They have SO MUCH COOL MERCH to look at, beautiful crystals, tons of candles, infused incense, all sorts of cultural spirit wards, and of course, books and tarot decks. I called ahead of time to ask questions, and the guy that was at the check out counter very nicely answered all my questions and helped me decide what to get. Definitely recommend this place if you are a true practitioner or wanting to learn! read more

This place has gone down the toilet. If I could give it .5 stars I would. I went last Saturday to pick up some things needed and there was a heavy set clerk there which looked like she worked at the haunted mansion at Disneyland with the worst attitude. She seemed like I was bothering her when I asked if she could show me a few things. I'm the 3rd generation in my family that has came to this place and I've never encountered someone with the worst energy in this place. Maybe downgrading hiring people like that is why they have had recent bad luck. Hope the make changes and hire up cause that clerk is definitely going to bring bad energy in that store. Too bad, not coming back again. Pan's Apothecary is looking really good these days. At least they are really nice and helpful. You can feel it the moment you walk in the door. read more

Usually they are great!! I had a read with "corrina"... from their other location. She was very off...and I " know" when a suggestion is NOT in the truth or not good for me I shared, I don't think that's " right"... instead of re checking if the info was correct, she was very arrogant and said ridiculous ultimatum.,, which is never in the truth, and never divine intelligence So her behavior was not acceptable and not near accurate ... actually can be harmful to someone who doesn't trust themselves her suggestion which she said was right would've made me sick. Period If she doesn't recheck the information, she should be encouraging someone to trust themselves and their gut Not saying if you don't do what I say, blah blah blah Not acceptable and not in the truth Yet a lot of the other readers are very good read more

I have been going the Torrance shop for years (decades??) and was so bummed when it closed recently :( But I'm so happy to say that this location is just as good!!! Psychic Eye is my go-to place whenever I need something different or unique for myself or as a gift. There are shelves and shelves of unique and hard to find items like: candle's, boxes, jewelry, incense & oils, crystals and pieces for whatever religion you believe in. There is also a large selection of books on mysticism, new age, religions & the occult. Pshchic Eye as a very relaxed vibe with calming music sometimes incense burning. The staff is knowledgeable, friendly & helpful. It's great place to browse because you never know what you will find around the next corner. There is street parking and a lot in the rear but it has lots of signs so I'm not sure if you can use it for the store. As for the psychics and readings I can't tell you because I have never used that service here. read more

Cool shop but the employees working there were super unprofessional and judgy. One of them was Screaming laughing while making fun of a fellow coworker and another was using some nasty profanity while there were younger people inside the store. I don't normally leave reviews but i used to like this store a lot so im disappointed in the quality of attitude from the employees there. read more

Ohhh mmm ggg!!! Tatiana was one of the best readers I've had in a while. Her personality was lovely and her reading/advices were on point!! 10/10 recommended. read more

The service at psychic eye is always awesome! BUT Serena's behavior is unacceptable. We bought my friend a reading for her birthday and she walked out within 5 minutes. Serena immediately jumped into an alt right rant about trump and Israel. No one, let alone, A psychic should ever impose their political views on their clients. If that's what we wanted we would have turned on FOX news. It seems that management is aware of her incredibly insane behavior, but why they choose to keep her is beyond me. Thank you to the woman at the front desk for being understanding and promptly refunding us. But as a long time customer this sad to see. Serena needs to go, her "readings" discredit the shop and the psychic profession itself. read more

This has been my favorite shop in the valley for 10 years now. I went in today for the first time since the reopening and it is so cute and still has the same cozy welcoming energy it's always had. I can't wait to keep coming back. read more

I called the Psychic Eye store in Sherman Oaks to ask if they had reopened... the woman that answered the phone was far from professional in her approach when I asked questions about the store and operating hours. After being closed for such a long time the rudeness of the staff when I called certainly doesn't make me want to visit or spend money at such an establishment!!! Why would they want to be so rude to customers??? I'll just continue to shop at the Greenman!!! read more

This place has a lot to offer , I recommend not getting a reading from this place , the lady that does the readings tries to know your take on politics but it's really not worth it . The crystals and books are amazing read more

This review is based on the new phone person who works the afternoon. Since she started a few months ago. 1. Unprofessional 2. Mocking and laughing during calls 3. Rude and obnoxious 4. Doesn't listen Never in my life have I been so annoyed with someone over the phone. I've been going here since 2010. But lately it's just completely different from past employees. PS. Great readers, fair prices read more

Love me some Psychic Eye! I can always feel the strong energy calling me anytime I'm near... This amazing emporium megastore of books, gems, herbs, trinkets, treasures, spiritual goods, tarot, readings and more is one of a kind. Beaming off Ventura Blvd just past the intersecting corner light of Sunnyslope and before Fulton Ave. They have two sides including the Annex in Sherman Oaks just next door as well as multiple shops in Las Vegas and one in Torrance, Los Angeles. I've been coming here for a few years to restock up on candles, incense and acquire new stones and crystals for myself, but definitely for others as well. Was happy to find a pendant for a friend and a bracelet for another made for some great quality material. The didn't have any chains in stock (probably due to the holidays), but I had a few at home I got creative with. The customer service is above and beyond. I interacted with quite a few psychic eye keepers in the store, but didn't get everyone's name. The guy that rang me up was really helpful and the person who assisted me with the Tourmaline (protective properties - promotes friendship, love, peace) was super helpful. I think they also work at another bookstore I'm a fan of... That or a case of cool deja vu. Either way everyone here keeps it above and beyond personable. I haven't had a reading here, but have only heard and seen great things! You can purchase some large antiques, decor and replicas here as well. The parking is street, yet not too hard to manage. Open seven days a week for your intuitive needs. read more

I called at 9:00pm to check and see what time the store closed. They told me 10:00pm. Got to the store at 9:40 and they were closed. When I called again, they gave me additive for being upset that I just drove 20miles across town for nothing. read more

I use their tarot services. They're excellent! And I think it's worth every penny. Most of them are pretty psychic.

I wish I could give a -- . I've been calling this place for years for readings. The readers are good, however whoever answers the main line is extremely RUDE! Every single time. I use to think maybe it's just a bad day for him. No, it's every time, day, year I've called. Today was my last straw! I booked and paid $30 for a 15-minute reading last week. I take full accountability -- I fell asleep and missed the call due to exhaustion. When I called back the same day, I was told to try again next week. I did -- only to be told I was NEVER booked in the first place despite having the charge go through on my account. Gaslighting much? It's one thing to say you don't offer refunds -- fine. But to act like I imagined the whole thing is shady and dishonest. On top of that, the man who answers the phone has the most unprofessional energy I've ever experienced. He sounds like he hates his job and takes it out on clients. Rushed, cold, and rude. "Ok, bye." Click. I won't be calling again. Do better. Especially when people are reaching out for spiritual support -- not attitude and excuses. read more

Beautiful store, use to love coming here. Unfortunately, that changed after I realized the readers were not intuitive. And I noticed that throughout the years that they were just giving me pretty lies and selling dreams... when thats not what I ever wanted. I only want people with discernment. Not people that say this man you're talking to is going to marry you, he's going to take care of you. read more

I had hoped Psychic Eye would offer me more, but the energy here feels heavy and unsettled. Even the fire next door did nothing to clear it. I don't visit often--maybe once every 18-24months and usually just for something random--but each time I step inside, an undeniable force seems to push me right back out, as if warning me not to stay. This space is in desperate need of a deep, intentional cleanse. There is something lingering that must be released, and I can barely stay in the store for more than a few minutes before feeling overwhelmed. Please, take the time for a true building cleanse--it's long overdue. read more

staff is awesome and the books are great the review is here obviously these people don't know what it takes to be greatness. shame on people who have no idea what occult stores really mean. there is so much value in the store it's probably one of the best shops in America. read more

Terrible. The people they hire are nasty and snotty. Many psychics there are mean and miserable and talk down to you. Every time I called I felt darkness and hate, especially from the women, like they are just miserable or work in dark magic. Olivier was nice. read more

BRING STAR BACK! I have been going there since they opened. I have never seen such rude, negative behavior from the staff and such bad readers in my life since COVID ended until STAR came! Unfortunately, they once again drove out a real Reader with their behaviors. This is the worst phone Help I've ever seen in my life and in all the years since I've been going there - they're rude, obnoxious, nasty and the last time I was there, she was rudely on the phone telling another client."I am not entitled". Then they blame the readers for their own bad behavior. The owner wants to do nothing about it and always takes their side. Mary is a despicable owner who cusses in the middle of the store with clients there. Starr was the last good thing they had there. Good riddance if you permanently shut down this location as you have shut down all your other ones. read more

Francis was very helpful: his energy is amazing. He is very knowledgeable and helpful. I will definitely be coming back. Thank you Francis xoxo read more

Whoever the female employee was that said, "can't you see I'm multitasking" at the front desk is a miserable mess and horrible representation of this company. I came in to test out a psychic to gift to multiple people as a party favor gift along with some stones and other fun stuff for an upcoming birthday party I'm throwing. This woman as I asked her why she was being so rude told me in an obviously shaky and confrontational voice that I was the one coming in the "weird energy". Wow. "Can't I see she is paying someone out and like she said multitasking!?" Despite the Eyes rolling and attitude I almost went ahead and did the shopping I intended to but I couldn't in good conscience spend my money there that I make in customer service. Watch the tape back owners and let me know when you get a staff that values a customer's experience. I haven't been here in a while but used to shop here a lot, wanted to come back starting for this party, but won't unless this is fixed. Hey owners watch the video if you can. And maybe think twice about who's at the front desk. This was written shortly after the experience so there is a near timestamp. read more

Love the staff and the psychics except one reader she's a Libra and she's very unprofessional... Sophia Rose

My friend called in advance to book an appointment and they were extremely rude and wouldn't give us their hours. Then told us simply not to come without giving any reasons but seemed like it was because they were arguing a bit with the friend. We showed up well over 1/2 an hour before they closed to see if we could come in and were told that they were fully booked and to call in advance. Not a single reading room was closed and they were the only two there. We didn't argue and stepped outside to call another place to see if we could get in. Right after we left they locked the shop behind us which felt very direct and the two people ended up leaving early right after us before they closed at 10. Would not recommend coming here and am not coming back :( read more

I love this place. I love their book selection and how you can find anything under the sun you would need to make a spell, learn about esoterica, magic, folklore...it's special and it feels like the magic shop in Buffy come to life. I have seen Olivier a few times and I really like him. He's thoughtful and fun and helpful. My friend really likes Star. I saw Gerald and I thought it was a really life changing reading, but he told me to go to the Landmark Forum which I've always been skeptical and after asking around, people have told me I should avoid. I'm very wary of all types of seminars that use cult tactics. So this is really a multi-dimensional review, for the shop, the readers I love, and just a note about Gerald who I really liked, but I'm just very conflicted about the reading I got telling me to go to the Landmark Forum. He kindof made it sound like if I didn't go, I wouldn't be able to heal some family trauma and find love. It's a strong incentive to go. I don't know if he gets a kickback, but it just made me uneasy about the reading. read more

Such a cool, unique, and eclectic collection of books, jewelry, gems, rocks, and supplies! You definitely have to visit multiple times to see everything! read more

I had a reading with Alfred that was full of what I was looking to hear, but got the news today and it was the opposite result. I've had reading here with other ones that were off and this time I wanted to share my experience. Don't believe all those that claim to be psychics. read more

I'm just going to go in order from the best to the worst Alfred- Literally the best timeframes , he's been right about everything. Whether or not I want to listen is a different story. Super friendly and knows what he is talking about Natalia - The best sweetest most positive energy! She gives plenty of timeframes and solid practical advice. She's the best her timeline was right like day of! Olivier - He was so down to earth and gave the best advice and he was right. He just doesn't do timelines but he was spot on Thom - He was really nice and awkwardly funny but psychic? Unlikely lol. Sorry , just didn't click for me. Alexandria - She was super late for the appointment. She did give a lot of details and timeframes though. One thing I didn't like is I would give her a piece of information and she would start making assumptions. But they were not correct. It was her opinion. Allorah - Just bad. She barely said anything. She curses to be relatable. There was a lot of sighing and pauses and repeating herself. She kept saying no and then at the end it was well maybe. lol, it's time to put down the cards and go to bed. read more

A staple of the area! I have been going to this place for years to get props, home decor items (cool candle holders), gifts or just to browse. The store is big, nicely decorated, you enter a different world. It has a bit of everything spiritual: books, candles, incense, oils, bowls. I get jewelry here sometimes for gifts since they have original, cool items that are pretty reasonable. Otherwise, their merchandise can be a little pricey. They do readings here as well, I never tried it. Street parking. One of a kind store in the Valley worth checking. read more

I've driven by here countless times and I'm glad I finally decided to pop in. What an amazing store! Filled with everything your woowoo heart could desire. Unique items like gorgeous hanging dream catchers and chakra balancing mandalas. Books, candles, incense, figurines, witchcraft paraphernalia, jewelry and more. I came looking specifically for crystals, which they didn't have a lot of, but it was worth the visit. I didn't get one, but they also do readings here. Easy street and nearby neighborhood parking. read more

It's been a while since I've been here. I went in to buy a gift and I didn't buy anything. The atmosphere fits I guess. There seems to be WAY more novelty things then I remember; Like Zelda stuff. read more

Everything you need, they have it or know how to find it. Books, jewelry, taxidermy and statuesI I enjoy the smell of Palo Santo and of course the clearing it helps doing. Prices are great too, I got a pin for my jacket for only two bucks, you can't even get instant noodles for two bucks, what!? Great store, go visit them and you'll see how interesting this place is. read more

I had a reading with Alexandria a few days ago and she was so sweet and encouraging and really made me feel seen and hopeful for the future. I know some of the psychics here are kind loving people. I've been coming here for years and I've never had a bad experience but me and my friend bought my other friend a reading for her birthday with Serena and she made my friend extremely uncomfortable within the first few minutes of their interaction, imposing her political beliefs on her and saying extremely inappropriate things to her on her BIRTHDAY. Staff refunded us for the bad experience which we really appreciated how they handled things. Serena had given me good readings in the past but not sure why she is not capable of that anymore, she clearly is not in the right state of mind anymore to be giving anyone any readings. read more

A session with Oliver is like speaking with your soul through someone who actually knows how to translate it. He's incredibly intuitive, grounded, and spot on with his insights. Every card pulled came with a message that was both clear and expansive, and he has a rare gift for telling it like it is--with so much heart, humor, and depth. I always leave feeling seen, supported, and realigned. If you're seeking meaningful guidance, not fluff or vague affirmations, Oliver is the real deal. Highly recommend! read more

"They're hereeeee!" Hopefully, you are familiar with that famous film line ("Poltergeist", duh!) in order for me to set the stage here (pun intended). I'm a special individual existing on a different energy plane than most; being a Psychic Empath (this doesn't mean you are an empathetic person, per se), Clairvoyant, Claircognizant, Clairsentient, have premonitions and can feel/see paranormal entities/spirits/ghosts. I was only THREE years old when I began to have these experiences and PROVED at the tender age of SEVEN that I was capable of astral projection. But, this is Yelp and not some metaphysical podcast where I am discussing (or trying to convince of) my experiences. All of this DOES relate to the patronage of the Psychic Eye Shop, a Valley staple since 1994. I reviewed this store in the past many years ago and it has seemed to vanish (odd - maybe because it was a poor experience); so let's try again based on a recent visit which, sadly, also wasn't up to par. Residing on Ventura Blvd in between Woodman and Fulton; most Valley residents have perused the Psychic Eye whether a member of the psychic/metaphysical/occult/witch community or simply just curious about the store as the Psychic Eye is quite well-known.  Consisting of a main store and an 'annex'; the square footage in total is ample and bigger than expected. One can hardly deny that the Psychic Eye covers a LOT of ground in terms of merchandise. Enter the darkly lit stores and you will find everything from herbs, crystals, wind chimes, spell books, swords, statues, instruments, books, candles, and sage to cutesy items like mugs, notebooks and spoon rests and everything in between. Whether you are searching for yourself or for a gift for a loved one "into this sort of thing"; you will probably find it at Pyschic Eye. Plus, they offer psychic medium readings, tarot and palm. Sounds great, right? What could go wrong? One of the issues with Psychic Eye is that although the selection is VERY vast and extensive; the actual product lines within each category are limited with much being out of stock. There were so many empty shelf stickers that it was ridiculous and I think I saw tumbleweeds on the shelves (haha) . Perhaps the store sells out quickly which is good for them; but then they need to be better at re-ordering and purchasing. Not to mention, Psychic Eye is way overpriced. I can find these items at other similar stores in LA at much more affordable price tags. For instance, the Psychic Eye is most definitely not the place to come for herbs/tinctures or crystals. Both were very sparse with the crystals being virtually empty except for some mainstream quartz and priced higher than many shops I frequent. But the main 'blah' of Psychic Eye is the vibe and customer service. You would think that this place is buzzing on the vibrational field but it feels more like a Hot Topic where your teenage daughter works thinking she's gothic but actually likes Hello Kitty. The store simply doesn't feel genuine or sincere. This extends to the staff that doesn't talk to you or make you feel welcome. The female associate on duty stayed behind the cash register and was literally talking to a male customer on a social level the whole time I was inside the store (he was grossly hitting on her to the point that I'm sure she was uncomfortable but she didn't excuse herself/tell him to stop). A male associate was also present behind the counter rummaging around and he also didn't acknowledge any customers even when I hovered looking at items inches from both of them. This ambiance (or lack thereof) and poor customer service was why I previously wrote a dissatisfied review. I can't testify on the quality of the psychic readings as I did not utilize this service and being psychic myself: wouldn't need to unless for 'fun'. The Psychic Eye isn't 'bad' but more suited toward those new to this field, buying a gift or simply browsing a store that is out of their comfort zone. The lack of sincerity that my Empath self picks up on, high prices, empty stock and poor customer service results in a store that ranks low. There are better stores of this ilk in the Valley and LA, in general. Psychic Eye is a solid average and not one to which I would return. read more
