The day I visited Crystal Treasures, I had woken up with a foreboding feeling for the day ahead; sure enough, by the end of my shift at work I felt completely bogged down by utterly yucky, bad feelings...feelings that didn't even belong to me, they just clung to me from other people...I felt like I was covered in muddy tar. I went to Crystal Treasures in search of crystals with metaphysical properties to help protect me from absorbing other people's toxic negativity. I didn't know what to look for, so I asked the shopkeeper for advice. She asked what I was looking for & proceeded to educate me on the crystals I should look at. She also advised me to come up with a kind of mantra to use every day to help enforce a bubble of protection around me. In the end, I bought a selenite bowl to use as a crystal purifier/charging station, a chunk of black tourmaline to absorb bad energy, a sachet of various small crystals for overall protection, & a selenite pendant with Chakra stones. I immediately began to feel better just having the crystals in my possession! As I write this, it is the second day using these crystals together & I'm feeling so much better! I even used the bowl to cleanse the stones in my normal jewelry. On further note, the store seems clean & well kept; there are plenty of other items besides just crystals to catch one's fancy. An added perk (at least for me) is that they have four cats on site (two who are kept indoors only) who all seem very friendly, well behaved, & don't seem to get in the way. I will definitely look to Crystal Treasures for any future metaphysical...
Read moreLots of unique and beautiful pieces, I always love to stop and look here when in the area. However, it is a bit on the pricey side. (Example; small tumbled crystals are around 1.50$ more than average price, and bigger pieces can be up to 25$+ more than similarly valued crystals I’ve seen at other shops, like crystal points and large raw crystals) however it doesn’t stop me from coming back, I always seem to find at least one or two pieces that pique my interest, whether based on quality, aesthetics or uniqueness. They also carry sage, incenses, candles, tarot cards, etc, which not every crystal shop carries. I wish there was more individually purchasable incense in comparison to the larger quantity packs they mostly carry. It’s the only shop of it’s kind in the area that I know of as well. The employees I have come in contact with there have been pleasant. I like how they give you a small cutout about each crystal you purchase explaining the meanings and intentions of the piece. Overall, it’s a nice small shop and I recommend stopping in and checking it out if you...
Read moreI am a long time customer of this shop, and I was pretty disappointed today when I walked in. The lady behind the counter was very loud and would not stop talking to customers. There was not one single quiet moment to feel anything. She was giving a lot of unsolicited spiritual counsel and telling people what certain things meant, as if there is a black and white answer to anything metaphysical...... the answer is no. There is not. And at one point, after sharing with me her thoughts on those who are "gifted" and those who are not, she told me that she experienced a time in her younger life where she felt an evil energy coming from an infant and that she had thoughts of taking the infant and slamming it against the wall. Needless to say, I had to sage myself when I got home. I'm very sad about this experience because I will probably not return to my once favorite store. Loud and abrasive people (in my opinion) don't belong in places where people need to feel subtle energies in order to find what they are...
