I have been visiting Miss Vicky for the last few years ever since I moved to LA. I always appreciate her kindness, warmth and patience as she answers any questions I may have and prepares any candles/products for myself or gifts I’m getting. I love visiting this store very much. There’s even the sweetest little dog that greets you :)

Without any doubt this is the best occult store in LA. Vikis oils and candles are so magical and bring great results always, at the very affordable price. She is doing everything by herself while you are in the store.The amazing collection of rare & signed books, powerful talismans and many other magickal items.So wonderful!!!

I love this store! The owner is incredible and has beautiful energy. I asked for a recommendation on an abundance/prosperity ritual and she hand crafted a “money draw” oil for me. She also suggested a “Spellbound” book that helped assist me to nurture my craft. Her books, herbs, oils, candles and trinkets are affordable and feel the best!

I visited here a week ago and I already want to go back! Upon entering the shop, I was greeted by a friendly dog and a sweet herbal smell. The environment was warm and welcoming and Vicky was very patient and took the time to help me find exactly what I needed and answered all the questions I had.

I went two days ago and I absolutely HAD to review. I love this shop so much. It has different tools and books for different cultures, so there is something for everyone here! The owner does not price gouge like many metaphysical shops do. Everything is so reasonably priced, i feel like I’m stealing!!!! You are also greeted at the door by the owners adorable dog. He’s got a Crystal hanging from his collar. The owner also helped me pick one for my pug puppy! The Crystal collection is such a wide variety in one place! And the owner is so helpful and not condescending when you have lots of questions. This is my new regular occult shop. I love this place!

I went here with a friend today to get some stuff and my girlfriend wanted a tarot deck of her own. The shop is magnificent. So many books and gems along with so many interesting trinkets. The owner was very helpful. It made me want to learn about it all. Also the most welcoming dog greets you at the door.

My favorite magical/metaphysical shop ever!I shopped at Panpipes for years and was ecstatic when Vicky opened Pans Apothika. She was very missed in the interim.Pans Apothika is stunning! A great selection of statues, crystals, and magical items such as blades, cauldrons, incense burners and more! Always fully stocked with a wide array of candles in many shapes, sizes, and all the colors you could ever need; a sizable and wonderfully eclectic assortment of books, and simply the best herbal and oil apothecary!!Vicky is always welcoming and so generous with her knowledge, answering questions, never making anyone feel rushed, and custom blending oils and/or dressing candles precisely for what you need.The ambiance is truly magical - the music is always on point, it smells divine from all the herbs and oils and incense, Vicky and her sweet Vincent are warm and welcoming... and you can get everything you need for all of your magical needs.

So glad to see panpipes lives on with its new location and identity. Been here for years. Thank you Vicky, for taking time out of your busy day to teach me the pendulum. It totally works now! Vicky is a creative magic worker.

This place is wonderful, Ive finally found a shop that has all the supplies I need! Theres a huge selection of both raw and tumbled crystals, candles, and tools and there always seems to be something new on the shelves to explore whenever I come in.

Vicky is one of the most talented witches and healers in Los Angeles---possibly the world. Her intuition is forever blowing my mind. She always delivers with careful attention to detail and love. Sometimes you have to wait because she has many people she tends to at once, as shes the only one like her and the only person that works at this business. The wait is WELL worth it.Shes knowledgeable in all facets of the word with all sorts of religions, pantheons, herbs, and literature. No one else blends incense like her or dresses candles in such a well thought out and meaningful way. If she doesnt have what you need, she knows where to find it and what direction to point you in.The new location is gorgeous. Much more parking!! My personal practice sky rockets with her boosts of help.There is no other Vicky in the world.

This is hands down THE BEST OCCULT SHOP IN LA. Do yourself a favor and visit this store. Vicki is incredibly talented, knowledgeable, and really takes a genuine interest in trying to help you. I’ve gotten many, many custom candles done by her and they are always powerful. She is incredibly generous with her time and knowledge. I truly appreciate the advice and direction she gives me with my candles. As I’m still an amateur. If it’s busy when you arrive, just be patient. She is worth the wait. Prices are great too. Very reasonable. Street parking is good.

Love this place it is a hidden gem . You can get candles custom-made and you can also store up with amazing Incense and not just any incense there’s tons of different types from around the world... it is hard to find stores like these where you come in feel at home and have someone help you that’s been doing this for over 20 years. She is great !!

Review №26

Small shop but very helpful staff that helped me find exactly what I needed at an unexpectedly low price. Was drawn to the place because its in the spirit of Pan who everyone always says Im the embodiment of so it felt right. Definitely worth checking out! Id give a 5 star if it we just a little bigger but they have quite a bit in the space they have with plenty of breathing room.

Review №27

Parking is convenient. Service is wonderful and knowledgeable. She relocated and is in a bigger space than the original store. If you are looking for a custom oil or candle Vicky will create it especially to meet your needs. The store is amazing and there’s an excellent vibe and energy in the store. Vicky is on top of her craft and I’m ecstatic that she’s back in business and in a great location! Pizza is close by for a quick bite to eat after shopping.

Vicki runs the best occult store in Los Angeles. I am SO HAPPY she is back. I would be so lost without her.*~ PricesHer prices are the BEST in town. Other places up charge pretty heavily.*~ProductNo one has the vast selection she offers or the knowledge. She is very helpful and knowledgeable about herbs, crystals, and even the books she sells. Undoubtedly you can find what youre looking for and if not she will order it or help you find it.*~ ServiceVicki runs the store on her own. So sometimes you have to be patient but its worth the wait. You will NOT, I repeat NOT, find the quality of magick and care she puts into her candles anywhere else.*~ New locationGorgeous shop! It feels very spacious. She has organized it very nicely.*~ ParkingSo much easier than in Hollywood!*~ HoursFor someone who runs the store on her own the hours are very good. 11-7

If you’re looking for someone who knows their stuff and is continually adding to their knowledge and repertoire, go to Vicky’s Pan’s Apothika. She does custom dressed candles, oils, and incense. Those are the main go-to’s for most people, but supplies like basics of herbs, resins, stones, and cleansing tools like sage to books, tarot decks, jewelry and statuary from most world cultures are also available. If something of interest related to the occult isn’t readily available, Vicky is usually really good with hunting it down.

So weird. I kept walking down Cahuenga looking for this shop, to no avail. They moved! Go figure. I just happen to be watching the movie Satanic, and theres a scene with the characters in the old shop, which brought back memories of when I first moved to this pretty city. Im in my 9 year cycle, and this is the best memory to bring back into my mind as I begin a new cycle, in another place.It seems you gals consecrated my stay. Thanks!

Vicky is kind, has great customer service and customizes for whatever her customers need. I came in for a custom bath to help remove blocks and negativity recently. She listens to your needs and has the widest selection of herbs, candles, baths, crystals, etc. This location has super easy parking options and is a true gem.

Review №39

This store has a very clean feel and look. If you are looking for a personal candle spell kit done by Vicky (which she is the best), this is your place. Please be patient and wait for your turn. You wont regret it. She has so many different oils, candles, resins, books, herbs, wands, and statues. There is so much to choose from. Parking is easy and accessible. She doesnt have something, then sometimes she can get it for you. You have to come in to see for yourself because I couldnt possibly list everything Vicky has. Remember come with a friendly and kind attitude and wait to be served.Hope this helps!

... As a 25-year customer, I was surprised when Panpipes closed its Cahuenga Ave location a few months back. So pleased to see Vicky has returned in this terrific new location on the East Side. The new space is big, bright and inviting, and features everything I loved and came to rely on from the old location. Excited for the new chapter in the 30-year history of this landmark occult shop.

Review №43

Pans Apothika is a very authentic occult shop, but it does not feel dark or intimidating. The owner is very knowledgeable and very patient with customers. Even if you dont need anything as serious as getting a hex removed, it is worth a visit and to get a candle with your unique blend of oils.

What a special place! I visited Vicky today for some custom anointed candles and one of her magical proprietary essential oil blends. It was my first time visiting her and I felt so warm and welcomed in the space. She is a pleasure to speak with and is clearly so knowledgable; she took the time to figure out exactly what I was looking for before making recommendations. She also has an incredible library/book store section of both old and new books and she says there is even more in her archives. If you are interested in witchcraft & magic, this is *the* spot to visit! And theres lots of street parking so its easy to stop in often.

I thought I was going to be discriminated against for not knowing how to speak English, I speak it but in short words my 10-year-old daughter helped me when that beautiful woman who is a goddess for what she has asked us and my daughter told her she behaved as what she looks On the outside, beautiful and its candles 😲 omg they serve 100% recommended, thats why there are so many people there and the place is so delicious, thank you for doing what you do.
