In Spyrit Metaphysical, Ames, IA

Other than them constantly trying to get me to buy things I didn't want or need the two dudes behind the counter like to pretend that there know it alls I believe they said something along the lines to my girlfriend as I don't understand why people worship "dnd characters" literally comparing the Pantheon I work with to "fantasy" characters. If you are a seasoned occultist don't bother with this shope. It's safe to say from the other reviews that I am reading that this store isn't about spiritually at all but purely just business

I'm very thankful to have this store in ames, their selection (although could always use ever expanding) is very wide-ranged and offers just about anything you might need even if it's just for comfort. I was however, surprised to find (upon looking through some crytals I'd bought for a necklace through sunlight) . My opalite looked real but was filled with several bigger bubbles I was able to observe my crystals thouroughly with a loup. A loupe is a small concentrated lense typically used to observe plant diseases or check the validity of a crystal cut or coin mintage. Another test I used was the cold test. Crystals will decrease in temperature unless it's maintained directly. Glass will easily retain the temperature of its environment. I have 7 crystal pendants. I was pleased to feel the first 6 were cold to the touch at roomtemperature. The opalite (center) failed the test, like glass, it retained room temp and was warm to the touch.. the rest of the pendants and items I've purchased here have been to satisfactory standards. Personally id also reccomend their variety of incense which is very affordably priced.

Great energy great people adorable kitties and I already love the pain relief tincture I got today level went from a 6 to a 3. My son even got himself a scorpion shaped stone.
