The almanac

What we carry

Eight entries, one per shelf. Each is a plain-language guide — what the thing is, how the traditions have used it, and where a beginner starts — written by people who have stocked these shelves since 1985. When our online shop opens, each guide will point at its shelf.

  1. 01

    Crystals & Stones

    Tumbled stones, crystal and gemstone specimens, and salt lamps — and how the traditions around them actually work.

    Tarot & Oracle

    Decks, spreads, and how to choose a first deck — plus runes and pendulums for other ways of asking.

    Candles

    Seven-day jar candles, devotionals, chakra and Feng Shui candles, and the practice of candle work.

    Sticks, cones, powders and loose resin — the best selection in New Mexico, sold by the single stick.
