Greetings!
Springtime is well & truly upon us now, with the snowdrops & crocuses out in abundance, & the daffodils waiting just around the corner. The Wheel of the Year turns to welcome the Spring Equinox & Ostara on & around the 21st March. Night & day are now the same length, & as we continue towards summer, we can look forward to even longer brighter days. This is such a beautiful time of year, & the vibrant, fresh energy of spring is such a perfect time for putting new plans & projects into action. I hope all the seeds you have planted are showing some signs of growth, & that you enjoy a vast array of lovely flowers in the summertime!
Here at Opal Moon, the biggest seed we planted this year was the one which has grown into our new shop! We have now been open for a good few weeks, & absolutely LOVE our new space! It truly feels like home...the smaller shop seems to have brought our stock to life - our crystals are all sparkling happily, & everything is light & bright! Strangely enough, we have more packed in to the new, smaller shop than we did in the (big!) old one...we have lots of beautiful stock displayed for your perusal, so do drop by & visit if you haven't already done so!
Of course you can still buy from us on-line too, & we're continuing to work hard on revamping both this web-site & our eBay shop, so please keep checking in to see what we've been up to! On eBay we focus a lot of our attention on crystals, our first love! We have a wonderful selection listed, all individually photographed with great care & attention by the lovely Al.

If you're considering buying online from Opal Moon for the first time, it may be useful for you to have a look at our excellent Feedback rating on eBay, which shows that you can buy from us with complete confidence.
Our Forum is now up & running - please feel free to use it for discussion or just as a way of keeping in touch. If you have a question, idea or information that you feel other Opal Moon customers may be interested in or able to help with, why not post it on our Forum?

THERAPIES AT OPAL MOON
Our new wee shop isn't quite large enough to accommodate a therapy room. Happily though, all of our wonderful therapists & practitioners are continuing their work in other Glasgow centres & premises. Visit our "Therapies & Readings" page for individual therapists contact details.

At the moment we have no Gift Vouchers available, however they will be re-introduced very soon!
