    moon bell
    Marissa R.

    I've gone to Salem handfuls of time, but I always somehow miss the opening hours of this shop. Last Saturday, I was able to pop in and I'm so happy I got the chance to visit before we move away. Everyone working is extremely friendly and happy to help. We had our dog with us so we both took turns going inside while the other person waited outside with our dog. I was trying to describe an item for my partner to find when it was his turn to go inside, and one of the employees was kind enough to help. I picked up a boar vertebrae (another employee also let me take one on display that I really liked!), a hanging moon bell, and a deer skull. Since we are moving, they wrapped it really well for us too. The pricing was more than fair, especially considering they have the kind of stuff you would typically find at oddities markets; I think it was just under $70 for everything. I would definitely recommend this place!

    This store has a policy of no photograph inside and we respect that. I asked the store manager about this policy and they were pretty friendly and straightforward in answering them. What followed this was a a lot of conversations and a lot of exchange of information. They are a 7 years old shop and they are extremely interested in different symbols of different culture, not just witchcraft, that human being have been used over the centuries of civilization as a symbol of healing. Having this discussion with her made me realize that symbols of men depending on geographical locations are different but they all mean the same and we evolved together.

    Theres just something truly inviting and good in this wonderful shop. I was in Salem visiting and sightseeing and had walked into numerous shops and this is the one I came back to twice. The overall aura and helpful people is something that cannot be dismissed. If you're looking for a particular herb or stone, they have it. Look no further. This place is a blessing.

    Outside the shop because no photography is allowed in it.

    My favorite shop in Salem, because it's the real deal. Most shops in Salem are touristy and can be really cheesy or overly dramatic. The owners are friendly and knowledgeable and the prices are great. You go in and get the sense of walking into someone's little cottage with dried flowers hanging from the ceiling, hand made baskets filled with various herbs, crystals or animal teeth for sale and a sense of warmth. It's an expierence for sure. It is simply stunning inside with how beautiful the shop is arranged. As far as I know it's a family owned shop that sells stuff they grow, they make, and from local artists. The prices are also really decent especially for such a touristy area. For example, they sell raven statues for 26 dollars each while another shop down the street sold the same ones for 59 dollars each. I was shocked when I saw the price difference. Their stones are also a dollar a piece which is amazing. Everywhere else charges at least two dollars plus a stone! The shop keepers definitely worship the old Norse pantheon so most things are geared towards heathens and people who practice Asatru. Gorgeous statues of Freya, Baldur and Odin are around, the music is wonderful and is reminiscent of "the old days" and there is some thing for everyone no matter who you worship or what you practice. I can't wait to visit right before Yule and see how they decorate then!

    I came to Salem, MA and was searching for an authentic place to buy natural products. It's a very small cottage store where they only allow a few people at a time for a reason. You're also not allowed to take any pictures inside as well. But overall it is 100% authentic, as you walk around they have herbs hanging from the ceiling, and bottles of natural ointments as well. I bought their rosemary + rose gave toner, absolutely to die for. I love the smell and freshness I get from wearing it. I also purchased a Sage spray to cleanse my room and crystals from any negative energy. I would recommend coming to this place just be prepared to wait a line to get in on the weekends.

It's upscale voodoo with a touch of new age hipster with Greek statues and a large room for formal seances On this visit to Salem and browsing the shops we stumbled upon this place and #1 son (Matt O. - Pittsburgh) and decided he needed to get a tarot card reading! He wasn't disappointed, because according to him, his reading was with David and was the best! He helped guide him on a path that he thought beneficial to go down, and he was very glad he went. It's to be noted that different psychics have different skillsets and strengths and offer to help you with individual needs. In addition to card readings, they do chakras, past life regressions, and more. But wait, this is a tourist kinda area so this is also a cool store for some of the less common items. I almost bought a really cool statue of the goddess Freya, but my honey said no, as well as some nice protection candles. Very unique and cool atmosphere with a neat vibe. (Do I sound really old here LOL) All the staff was quite nice as well. Note on psychics: I know the whole psychic thing is not for everyone, but Matt loves to get tarot readings and several of our presidents consulted with them over the years. The word "Psychic" is derived from the Greek word "psychikos" which means "of the mind or mental". The origin of Psychics though dates back to ancient times. And the earliest account of the use of Psychic powers was seen in the Bible. For example according to Book 1 Chapter Number 9 in the bible, the biblical character Samuel is asked to find donkeys for the future king Saul.  There are also examples in ancient Egypt where priests of Ra at Memphis acted as psychics in the guise of a seer. So it's not a new idea and psychics are cool for those that choose to seek their counsel. Bottom line: If you are so inclined I recommend coming here if you are ever in Salem!

I found the energy here a bit overwhelming and at times catering to tourists, which wasn't quite the experience I was seeking as someone who has a deep spiritual practice. My mom had a great tarot reading here with a witch close to her age and said it was a wonderful experience. I wasn't a part of that experience so I'm a bit limited in commentary there, but I'm thrilled she was happy. The reading was done in an very small booth-like setting behind a curtain right against the hustle and bustle of the store (if you're an empath or claustrophobic, be forewarned that this can be very overstimulating). This felt unusual to me since I'm used to tarot readers needing energetic space and room to focus. OMEN has a fabulous selection of books I could have looked at all day. I'd love to come back to this store sometime not in the fall and see if my experience feels different. I adored the tarot artwork in the back of the shop and the nice selection of tarot and oracle decks.
