The shop immediately caught our attention - it is beautifully arranged, very aesthetic, and feels like a small gallery full of natural treasures. The selection of stones, minerals, and jewelry is stunning, especially the large amethyst geodes and softly lit pieces that create a truly calming atmosphere. We were also very pleasantly surprised by the staff. The lady who assisted us was incredibly kind and welcoming, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. We felt very comfortable and at ease there. We left with several beautiful items - jewelry, stones, decorative pieces, and other unique finds that will always remind us of this special visit. If you find yourself in New Orleans, I highly recommend stopping by. It's a place with a truly special atmosphere where everyone can find something meaningful.

This shop is recommended by NOLA famous High Priest Robi Gilmore as authentic. They have tons of…read moreherbs and ingredients to practice vodou (which is the actual way to spell and say it if you're talking Haitian Creole, like voh-doo). They have alters and figurines. Candles and protective charms. There are educational explanations pinned up around the shop for many of the items on display so you can learn about the practice while perusing. They also have voodoo dolls, which Robi has mentioned are NOT an authentic part of the religion. While the shop has a lot of interesting inventory, it was super crowded in here and very touristy, so you really couldn't enjoy the wares or talk to the employees (who I'm told are knowledgeable and interesting, but alas I'll never know for myself). That's the main reason for four stars instead of five.

So when I was in vacation in NOLA, I made an appointment with Holly and was blown away. Immediately after leaving it felt like a mixed bag.

She was very flexible with time and very personable and relaxed with her reading. She did some cleansing and starts off the session with a very relaxing lavender oil and meditation. The meditation got me very relaxed. I am a fortune telling enthusiast with interest in tarot cards and astrology and the like. Although I didn't understand the cleansing part very well, the tarot card telling gave me a couple of surprising tellings by Vanessa. I definitely think its an experience worth having in New Orleans and Vanessa feels like a very comfortable and genuine fortune teller. I'm not sure how pricing is as I didn't get quoted by anyone else - appointment or any of the fortune tellers near Jackson Square, but it was a pleasant experience.

I went to see Vanessa on a lark when I was on a business trip to NOLA. I have had a pretty heavy…read morecouple of years with a lot of unrelated trauma and tragedy, and my big question was: will this run of bad luck start to shift? Vanessa was warm, wise, funny and competent. She packed SO much into our hour+ together: she "cleaned and cleared" me, identified a negative energy that was in my home far away in California and dealt with it appropriately, gave me practical suggestions for supports for my family to help them with their struggles, and gave me a really robust tarot reading. So much of what she said was spot-on. While I am a spiritual practitioner myself (I am an ordained Protestant minister), I have a healthy skepticism of anyone claiming to have supernatural powers. But I entirely trusted and believed Vanessa. I left her place much lighter than I entered, and the benefits have lasted for days. Apart from any true magical properties from our encounters, there have already been untold empirical results: I have been sleeping better, dreaming more lucidly, and in waking hours feel more grounded, joyful, connected to my purpose, and less anxious about the future. Additionally, Vanessa is just a delight to be with. She has an infectious laugh, and delivers deep and occasionally hard truths with such tenderness and conviction that they are easy to receive. I'm looking forward to going back to see her next time I am in NOLA!

I'm rather "in…read moretune" myself (I use tarot cards and astrology for guidance in my own life), and love it when I get a reading from a truly gifted individual. This was the case with RC Crow. I knew I had made the right choice even when I spoke to Dawna on the phone to book an appointment, and all it took was the first card and statement from RC for me to know I was in for a profound session. I am still processing our conversation. RC has a way of getting to the heart of the matter, and this reading was eye-opening in ways I never thought a reading could be. He is warm and vibrant, and definitely gifted. When I return to NOLA, I will certainly book another reading.

Given all that I've read and seen, I was totally blown away by Evaine and her reading. I sat at the bar with my girlfriend for about ten minutes before we decided to each get our own readings. After picking my Tarot cards Evaine told me what she saw. She was 100% accurate in what was going on in my present and what I had been mulling over for my future. I got goosebumps with each sentence that came out of her mouth. I had not spoken to this lady about any of what she said, not in conversation and certainly not in body language. Here she was....reading it aloud to me. She was so specific and on point. The details she provided could not have been some sort of "trick". After my reading I felt assured that my plans for the future would be well worth the risk involved. On top of giving a highly accurate reading, Evaine was very pleasant and friendly.

That simple move already separated this place from the chaos outside. It's hospitality in its cleanest form: welcome in, take a breath, we got you. Inside is low light and old time apothecary mood, menus like a spellbook, but it's not gimmicky. The bartenders move like they've done the reps. Calm. Precise. No frantic showboating, no syrupy cover ups, no sloppy pours even with the parade energy banging on the door. We ordered two and they were both dead on. Alchemist Elixir: pea flower gin, elderflower liqueur, fresh lemon. It shows up pale violet with an orchid on the rim and yes it's pretty, but it's also disciplined.

Corpse Reviver #2: local gin, Lillet Blanc, Grand Marnier, absinthe, fresh lemon. Cold, crisp, citrus first, then the herbal edge and just enough absinthe to remind you what city you're in. Served in a textured coupe with a cherry skewer, details handled like they actually matter. Outside, the streets were selling amnesia in plastic souvenir cups.
