The Prism and Pendulum - Escondido, California

I came into this store and was greeted by the most wonderful, kind, store owner! The store is beautiful with crystals, incense, jewelry, and so much more! They even have an art gallery in back of the store! They have air conditioning going for the hot summer days, and they are welcoming to all people! They have a tarot card reader and other events sometimes, so check out their schedule. I bought $60 worth of items, and 100% will be back soon!

A gorgeous place with a wonderful community. The energy is fantastic! There are so many things to choose from, they have a wonderful selection of crystals and the owner has a lot of knowledge about them. They prioritize sustainable and ethically sourced goods with a large selection of locally crafted items. It's not just items they sell either, they have people who do different kinds of readings (tarot, oracle, pendulum) and types of cleansings and energy work, if you're looking for someone/something specific and they aren't there that day you can look at the wall next to the art prints and see profiles of the different people who offer services there. They also have a gallery with an assortment of different mediums of art. They host different events, some of which are gallery shows and others which are markets with amazing vendors. I would highly recommend checking this place out if you're looking for specific items or services or even if you're not looking for anything, it's a wonderful community with such nice people. The store itself looks like a work of art, every time I go in there there's something new to look at and a new detail that I've not noticed before you can tell how much time, effort ,and love they have put into the community they're building.

Love this place! It is a store, an art gallery and a place to gather for their many events and art openings. Loretta and her team are kind and knowledgeable. She supports and sources from amazing small businesses and artists.

This is my new favorite place on Grand! I am absolutely obsessed with this store! They have a beautiful selection of gems and stones, candles, jewelry, spiritual items and more! I really liked that it is not only an items store, but they also have workshops and information all over the place! You can attend the "Mercury Retrograde Workshop", Reiki, and Tarot sessions.

But wait... there's more!

At the back of the store, there is an art gallery! The owner has monthly themes and focuses on helping and promoting local artists, specifically the ones that are just starting out their careers! How cool!

What I loved most about The Prism and Pendulum is the customer experience and the owner! Loretta is super welcoming, open minded, friendly, knowledgeable, and kind! She greets everyone with a smile and holds space for everyone to be themselves. We definitely need more people and places like this one in town!

I will definitely be intentional about coming back as many times as I can!

I’ve been here 3 times so far and every time it’s better and better. Everything from the items in the store, the artwork on walls, the decor, to the sweet gal that opened it are the best! Down to earth, kind, and all the items are made by local artisans. You can tell so much care and intention went into opening this store and my most favorite is the thoughtfulness and consideration regarding sourcing of the crystals. It’s a relief to know that it’s not just cheap junk sourced in an unethical manner. It is a much needed gem in Escondido.
