Just arrived- Locally mined Herkimer diamonds! We have large and small specimens for you to work with. Herkimer quartz “diamonds” are usually double termination with carbon inclusions. Some of ours are also smoky or have golden healer inclusions, as this one shown. Herkimer diamonds are said to be pure manifestations of spiritual light. They facilitate recognition of the spirit within matter and purify the wearer and space. Use them to expand dream work and visions, astral travel and dimensional shifting. They can create and maintain doorways! The carbon inclusions version assists with cord cutting and dropping ingrained emotional patterns.

Black salt is one of our favorite materials to use in spell craft and spiritual cleansing. Not to be confused with culinary black salt, the magical version contains sea salt, charcoal, herbs and ritual incense leavings, sometimes hearth ash (and should NOT be eaten!) It adds powerful banishing and clearing properties to any work you are doing. Sprinkle across your doorway to prevent negative and harmful people from entering. Circle your spell candles with it before working with them, especially if you are doing a cord cutting, “go away” spell, or protection working. You can add it to spell jars to cleanse and protect your work, and place a dish of it in your work space to help clarify and purify your own intentions, or negative, obsessive, or anxious thought cycles. We love how easy it is to work with and we have plenty in stock for you.
