I've been shopping at this store for the past seven years and have always enjoyed the atmosphere…read more The employees have been friendly, although they don't always acknowledge you unless you approach them first for assistance. Unfortunately, my experience this past December left me with a bad impression. I stopped in to buy Christmas gifts and while I was being helped by the employee at the register, I asked if they happened to have small handouts explaining the properties of a few crystals that came from the glass shelves. They weren't sure, so they asked the older employee/manager standing nearby. His response was rude. He came over and said they would have to print one out and didn't have time to do that. I wasn't expecting anyone to go out of their way to print something--I was just asking in case they had copies available at the front. A polite "no, we don't" would have been fine. Instead, the sharp tone was embarrassing, especially since it happened in front of other customers, the employee helping me, and my partner. I still purchased my items, but the interaction left me hesitant to return. This is a shop that should feel warm, welcoming, and relaxing considering what it offers. Nobody should leave feeling uncomfortable after a simple question.

There's a reason they've been in biz for almost half a century (less than half at this location I…read morebelieve). My cusp of magic friend worked at a new age place during grad school but she quit and moved back to Texas when her real career took off. I won't name the place or the clientele but the clientele includes A-list celebrities/models, some of whom are icons your kids constantly repost on Tumblr from their heyday and currently still relevant. Being in touch with being on the cusp of prophecy, I was always giving her advice but more so in line with adding informed astrological decisions especially under disseminating moon phases when my intuition is at it's sharpest. I continued going there every now and then even after she was gone as it sold basics of what I typically look for until I interacted with new people they hired who did not seem to have a clue and by the end of my last purchase it would have been the third time I'd given someone who worked there, insightful advice. My friend also told me the new people weren't very good and she always wanted to hear stories of my interactions with them to confirm. It reminded me of when I was at Yoga House in flow and the instructor made an astrologically inaccurate statement about the current moon phase - there's just some new age places that are totally off when they try to play in that new age vibe but not all will catch it. Needless to say I haven't been back after that major third eye roll moment. And I wasn't even there for astrological insight, just physical flow. But if it is going to be mentioned it should at least be accurate. I decided to look for a botanica because I missed the groundedness of a real root work place and the airy abstraction of new age places was beginning to feel like a total drag. This is the nearest place, if not the only if I recall, that came up from Yelp searching "botanica." Lucky! The last time I've been to a botanica and saw an ordained priestess was in Texas almost a decade ago. In LA it's all pagan new age "hey kids wanna buy some magic? And maybe step up your Rennfaire outfit?" vibes. It felt so refreshing to be in a root work space again. I can't believe it is so much closer to me and I've been going to all the different places (not for readings, but basic supplies that would never change for me; something about those places just made me feel like they couldn't tell me what I myself can't with my own cards - and since I'm familiar or acquainted with a few I definitely can rule their psychic insight out). I only go for readings when I really can't figure things out for myself with my own cards and there's a real veil I can't seem to lift or pierce on my own and need further insight. Richard is the best person I've ever gotten a reading from thus far. I also came in having meditated on my questions in such a way to allow him to more easily access the answers. Even though I don't get them often I've gotten them enough as a standard of comparison to make that statement...I've gotten read 3 times in Texas 2 of which were cowrie shell readings, once in Palm Springs which didn't feel like a reading, and now. His tarot reading approach is unique, with stones, tapping into a lot more. He isn't vague and had a lot to say. It's $50. These readings tell you more about your spirit guides and ancestors coming through that support you (it is not a coincidence he gave me the same exact number of spirits with me as my reading a decade ago in Texas and included some same some new but accurate details to confirm the ancestors). Run of the mill hipster new agey tarot readers in Silverlake cannot tell you these things about the spirit world and are less psychically in tune; it seems they simply interpret cards that are drawn. While highly intuitive, most are not actually psychic. They could not pierce the spiritual veil as Richard did. I didn't know cowrie shell readings were an option here but good to know they are, it is at $70. I love how this place sells Mexican Nivea, makes me feel like I'm really in another country. As with any place that "sells magic" I recommend you still try to approach any place as level headed as possible (although people might tend to get readings when desperate). Obviously there's no magic to weight loss, for example; you don't really need a sign to affirm whether or not you need to get physically healthy for yourself. With such matters, you either do or don't. As much as I believe, it's important to be realistic and put in your own work for yourself for these things to work for you (and why I like that it's called ROOT work because that just grounds it for me). It requires cultivated self-knowledge and self-possession otherwise it will be futile because you'll find what you didn't know about yourself in itself is one obstacle. And when you don't know or don't know that or what you don't know, ask Richard. Seriously. Best to bring cash since there's a $2 surcharge.

They walked me through messages that were coming up for them in addition to what I asked about. I sincerely appreciated that from their reading because it lets me know they're guided by their intuition! As an intuitive energy worker myself, I know how important it is to share messages that are coming in without being asked. Sometimes, those messages have been waiting to find their way to the person on the receiving end for a very long time! Great work, Carrie! I know more clients will find their way to you and your incredible insight. I love how you're layering your personal and professional experience with this gift.

I've been going to see Pinoko for…read moreyears, usually when I am going through a rough patch and need something extra to keep myself grounded and sane besides my regular self-care protocols. Pinoko is so kind, generous and caring. Most times, I don't need to say anything before she intuits the things that are stressing me out or worrying me. Based on that initial assessment, she will decide on the type of reiki healing session, and I ALWAYS walk out feeling better and more hopeful than before. She is the most gifted reiki healer I know and I cannot recommend her enough. She is typically available on Wednesday, but I've contacted her through her social media to make alternative arrangements (since I work on weekdays). Indigo Collective is a nice space with a good stock of crystals, books, decks, jewelry, incense and other metaphysical goods. They have a good psychic fair once a month and a variety of weekly classes. I've gone to the fair a few times, which is where I met Pinoko. The employees are very responsive and thoughtful especially when I am booking my appointments. They have PLENTY of parking in their lot.

I originally thought that I would be asking her questions within my 20 minute time frame. It was not what I expected. To give you the topic, I am going through a breakup and I wanted to know if there was a light at the end of the tunnel. She immediately sensed my anxiety and started pulling her tarot cards. I barely said anything and she said exactly what he was feeling, and how I was feeling. I couldn't get the words out for why I was in the breakup situation but she told me the hard truth that I needed to hear. I wished the results were different in my situation. All in all, I wished I booked a longer session with her because she helped me see things that no therapist would. Michelle, if you are reading this, thank you so much for helping me understand what I've done wrong and move forward. I've taken lots of notes and am doing my best to follow through on your suggestion. I really want the best outcome. I'll be booking you again in the near future!

It's exciting, and I feel incredibly grateful. Michelle is amazing at what she does, and my experience with her was very meaningful. I will definitely be a repeat customer.

I knew a lot about astrology coming in such as my Natal Chart, aspects, houses and how they affected me but she talked about what truly was important to watch out for and work on in my chart & what they meant/ how they really affected my life. Additionally, she introduced me to a second point return which gave me insight into my current situation in life and what's to come and what I've been feeling. Covering through finances, emotions & physical body health. On top of that she gifted me a nice folder with papers of what we talked about to take home with me. She also likes texts and wants me to text her once the things we talked about start happening. Will definitely go back to keep learning more. She has a whole collection of books & resources to read about in her website which I encourage everyone to check out. I would give Melanie 10 stars if I could. One of the most valuable well spent evenings I've had in my life. Anyone who is either beginner or advanced to astrology and want to know more or be introduced. This is who to look for!
