You might think New Age shops are hard to find these days, but they're not really that hard when it comes to New York state. Aside from the city, many counties have their own unique stores to choose from. Each one is its own little paradise. I'll be examining some of the best stores with regards to their locations in three separate counties: Putnam, Dutchess and my own county of historic and beautiful Westchester.
To start, let's begin with:
What I love about Cat's Moonshine is that not only are they Putnam County's greatest New Age Store, they have such a large variety in such a cozy little space! Catherine McDonald, the owner, and her crew are always ready to welcome you in with warmth and excitement. You'll feel right at home in this quaint little shop, which is just off the main road (Rt. 6) in Mahopac, NY. It's right next to a busy tattoo shop, which makes a lot of sense, considering that the tattoo-wearing population are pretty open-minded when it comes to different lifestyles (such as wearing a tattoo for instance). That makes it all the more likely that they would take a moment, after getting a tattoo (of say a dragon or a faerie) and walk right next door into a super-unique shop like Cat's Moonshine.
You'll find lots of different items here: anywhere from crystal jewelry to clothes, from soft-scented candles to unique hard-to-find books and fashionable furniture. You might feel like you've just entered a whole other world when you come in here and find yourself surrounded with a magickal greeting of playful faerie folk, fanciful dragons galore and loving angels always close by to lend a hand and watch over you. As if that weren't enough, Cat's Moonshine is also now holding tarot card readings with Lady Reign and more. Plus Catherine McDonald is a also a certified Life Coach who really knows her stuff. She will help you learn to give yourself a better life by delivering invaluable and confidential treatment to you at an affordable cost, infused with an abundance of genuine grace and the wisdom you need: which, in today's world, is often, sadly, hard to find.
On my last trip, I bought myself a conveniently affordable and lovely Aqua Aura quartz crystal pendant (please see left), which I wear nearly every day and love like crazy. Aqua aura is a type of quartz where the crystal is bonded with gold, creating a breathtakingly lovely, natural-looking but also mind-boggling blue.
I also bought some Bath Salts designed to protect the user from all evils. The scent was so relaxing and calming that I could have stayed in that bath for hours. (Baths, I find, tend to help alleviate anxiety and help you wind down at the end of the day....I sometimes even read in the bathtub!) In the end, the bath salts I got from Cat's Moonshine helped me to get a much better sleep. Did I feel more protected afterwards? You bet! The serenity and peace I felt after that much-welcomed bath is all the proof I need.
That's the kind of quality you're sure to find at Cat's Moonshine, which comes like a breath of fresh air. It's definitely that special kind of place that gives you that extra much-needed pick-me-up which can help you through the day. They're conveniently open from Tuesday through Saturday from 10 to 7, as well as on Sundays from 12 to 4 pm and are located at 559 Rt. 6 in Mahopac NY. Call 1-845-803-8145 for questions or to set up a Life Coaching or Tarot Card Reading appointment.
