Add a Listing.

News Flash! Before we begin, here's someone who's already started this project in a big way. Believe me, I looked for someone who tried to do this, and couldn't find a thing. Thanks to Orion Princess at Lighthouse in the Myst for helping me find this here listing of Metaphysical Stores around the World, and especially in Wisconsin. If you don't find your favorite shop listed there, list it here. Or vice-versa, or whatever you'd like. I will use this page to help her keep hers up to date, so if you want to get both pages with one form, list your merchant here. Queen looks like she's got enough work to do without having to remember me when she gets an updated Wisconsin merchant...

I began this list intending to check the shops to make sure they existed. I found that I just couldn't do it, so I make this disclaimer:

Before you drive for an hour to find the place, check the phone number or the email address, or the home page! Contact them somehow to make sure they exist and they still carry the things you're interested in. Don't blame me if you get there and find a laundromat.

Wauwatosa

From Cathia, November 21, 1997

Egyptian International Art Mayfair Mall, 2500 N. Mayfair Road, Wauwatosa, 53226 (414) 475-6071

This store has beautiful jewelry, statuettes and more of every member of the Egyptian pantheon. They have ankhs, crystal jewelry, and assorted home decorations. It's not really a pagan shop but if you're interested in the Egyptian deities you'll find a lot to like here. Prices vary, my one gripe is that they aren't clearly marked so you have to talk to the owner, who will try to sell you the entire store. But it's definitely worth a look! Easy to find, second level of Mayfair Mall.
