At this point, it should be abundantly clear: I am a woman of the woo woo. A crystal loving, tarot reading, astro chart deep-diving woman. Fun fact: my mom spelled my name this way because numerology stated it was luckier to have a y in your name. Another thing about me? I love crystals and if you’re one of my friends, chances are I’ve given you one.
Anyways, while looking out for crystals for my room, I wanted to share some spaces to shop online. Due to COVID-19, most of us can’t really leave our homes or simply don’t want to. Back in 2019 and early 2020, I would do a monthly trip to Hout Bay with one of my close friends to visit her crystal spot.
I don’t go as much as I used to but I really enjoy seeing crystals up close and picking whatever really catches my eye.
Bu buying online is convenient and often shops have a large selection to choose from that you might have not noticed in a physical store.
I’ve compiled a few of my faves below and if you have any other suggestions, let me know.
