    Very cute and clean store, lots of things to peruse. Not a lot of unique stone pieces just standard shapes but variety of stones so that is nice. Staff was great and helpful. They charge $0.10 for brown bags but give you the complimentary mesh ones for your purchases.

    Stamp card spend 200 get 20 on the next visit.

    As a tyro mineral collector and interesting person I thought this store has a pretty decent collection of stuff to browse. I wasn't looking for anything specific other than just on a play date with a chick that I admire. I definitely was more interested than she was and THAT'S okay. Damn. lol. I had a pretty decent talk with a sales person and I picked up a deck of mantras to play with. Luv it. :0 They have laminated pictures of like guru's, master's and teacher's from some kind of practice/lineage. Lots of interesting stuff really, but I will not be that spoiler alert go on in and check it out for yourself. Caveat this store isn't for everyone and THAT'S okay. Damn, lol. I will return and use my frequent card here to max out the benefits. Yah! Enso#23 + Interesting variety of spiritual books, decks and minerals and jewelry. - Parking's not devastating or anything like that. Just FIGURE it out, okay.

    2 "jade" crystals that are actually serpentine, another crystal NOT in the jade family.
    Ms. Good K.

    I've been here many times. Yesterday around 5pm was different. I likely won't be back again. I purchased 2 crystals a couple weeks ago that are labeled as jade. My own research yielded they are actually serpentine. I mentioned this to a store rep, and received pushback and unnecessary combativeness. I was here today to enjoy myself and grab some new items, not to be spoken to in such manner. The rep was highly offended and suggested it was my word against hers and that jewelers deal with higher end gems and not crystals. She went on to state they don't sell fake stones, and the owner has been using the same vendors for many years. I never said the stones were fake. I mentioned they were very pretty and I'd be keeping them. Serpentine is a great crystal but not at all in the jade family and not for the particular intensions I had in mind. The store rep turned her back to me while I was in mid sentence while trying to explain I had not called the crystal fake, and she grabbed the store manager. The store manager was very polite and informative. She took her time to hear me out and advised she would let the store owner know. That's all I wanted! When I got to the counter to pay for my items, the store rep that was rude to me finished assisting the customer ahead and then asked the store manager to step in to assist me instead of taking the opportunity to smooth the situation over or to thank me for coming back. This rubbed me the wrong way, and I left without making a purchase. There are too many crystal healing and botanica shops around to spend money at a place that doesn't treat you nicely. The energy was off, and I should have left right after the employee spoke to me in that manner.

    Mystical~ My friend and I come here at least once a week I'm sure! Great selection! Staff is very attentive and knowledgeable. If you have a question, or multiple, feel free to ask them. Please be aware that if you choose to look up information yourself, that there are multiple places to get information from, so some deviation will be present. Great place to go to if you are a new, or knowledged person in Crystals, Tarot, Oracle, Singing Bowls, Chakras, Zen, Incense, Prayer, and a few others I forgot (). Thank you Universal Connection staff!!!

    What a gem!! (no pun intended) I genuinely love the atmosphere this place gives off when I first entire the store. It's so calming and has so many positive energies. As you shop around, you hear very subtle and quite music as water flows down from the fountain behind the counter. I can be in there for hours!! They offer so many great things such as Sage, Gemstones, Pendants, etc. - Lots of parking available - Very friendly staff - Neat and Tidy A MUST GO TO PLACE

Instead I came away with so much more. Especially discovering that it is a #PinayOwned small business. A quaint and cosy boutique shop right next to the VTA light rail track in Campbell. I missed the window label that proudly announced it was a small, Filipina woman owned business. A shirt with Filipino words alerted me that this was a special store fostering my cultural pride. Meeting the owner, Charlene, confirmed my discovery that she started this business 3 years ago. The shop's wall adorn by handmade paintings & a mural that conveys Charlene's spirit of her shop. While small, it was captivatingly fun to explore every nook and cranny. She even showcases and supports other women entrepreneurs. I was immediately drawn to the ZZ plants. She helped me understand the symbolism of them which inspired me to buy 2 smaller ones to help a loved one through her grief and for me to inspire my continued 2025 manifestation journey. At home, I discovered a very personal message of gratitude with a picture of one of the original artwork and an affirmation card. Knowing her origination story and impact of the store, inspires me to put Charlene's store on my short list of places to find unique, soul-filled gifts. Yes, I can go to a garden or box store to find more affordable and variety of options. I am willing to pay a slight premium knowing the Campbell overhead, each product was especially curated, and to support a fellow Pinay with her soul purpose driven small business.
