Yesterday Jamie and I took a trip over to The Sacred Well to swap out some of my Altar Dolls. The Sacred Well is a wonderful new age / occult / craft store in the Lake Merritt district of Oakland, CA.

The wonderful folks at the store have been hosting my Altar dolls in a rotating gallery for about a year now. Every six weeks or so I change out the dolls to show another one and so it goes. We started with Kore last spring to kick of the cycle, worked through several of the Oshun dolls (which enticed a friend of the store to buy River Oshun), then Demeter took a turn over the autumn Equinox, and moved on to several of the Oya dolls (which also got snapped up).

Rabbit, one of the owners of Sacred Well, created a small altar set up for the dolls near the reading room and the cash register. With each doll the altar set up gets a little more elaborate and beautiful. Each of the dolls seems to collect offerings and goodies, so that when I go in to change out the dolls, we have to sort through the assortment to figure out what she gets to keep and what stays with the altar!

The Sacred Well also carries a number of Jamie’s single and multi-strand necklaces as well as the new line of Power Animal and Deity necklaces that Jamie and I have created for folks who want a simple want to have a daily connection with various spirit powers.

Currently the store has the Lord and Lady of Wicca  and Sir EJ on display through the middle of May.

So if you are in the area stop this is your chance to see these dolls in person as well as visit an amazing store!

Blessings,

Kate
