Cosmic Aura Crystals
A few blocks down Garland Ave from Jodi's Broom Closet, this shop specializes in aura-treated crystals plated with precious metals for an iridescent sheen, alongside minerals, tarot decks, and stone jewelry. It tilts more toward crystals and adornment than hardcore ritual supply, which makes it an easy, browsable second stop on a Garland occult crawl.
The story
Before opening its storefront at 602 West Garland Avenue in August 2018, Cosmic Aura Crystals operated as an Etsy shop specializing in treated minerals. When it put down brick-and-mortar roots in Spokane's historic Garland District, it carved out a distinct niche on the street's oddball retail corridor. Rather than stocking heavy ritual cauldrons or spellworking herbs, the shop focuses on the geological and adornment side of the mystical spectrum—specifically aura-treated quartz bonded with vaporized metals to yield an iridescent surface glow.
Purists in rockhounding sometimes debate vacuum-deposited titanium and metal treatments on natural quartz, but this shop embraces the high-luster sheen outright. Alongside the treated pieces sit raw unpolished mineral cuts, locally crafted copper-electroformed jewelry pendants, and independent tarot inventory like Labyrinthos's Golden Thread deck. It functions as an accessible, visually saturated pitstop that complements the darker, ritual-heavy shops nearby.
What it's like
Walking in off Garland Avenue, you enter a compact storefront packed with lit glass display cases, velvet trays, and shelves of gleaming mineral specimens. The atmosphere feels like a bright, low-pressure lapidary gift shop rather than an esoteric temple. The main catch is its narrow opening window: the store runs strictly on afternoon hours from Wednesday through Sunday and stays locked on Mondays and Tuesdays, so plan your trip into Spokane accordingly.
The move: Pair it with Jodi's Broom Closet for a Garland District witch crawl, each picking out an aura crystal for the other.
