Interesting selection, but definitely overpriced. People working there were friendly enough at first, but didn’t make any effort to help us find what we needed. Got rude when it was 6pm and told us to hurry up instead of asking us if we need help with our final selection. I left feeling very negative and upset.

I love this place. Especially their collection of used books. Everyone is friendly and I feel good about supporting them.

One of my go to spots for all things metaphysical. I bought a chakra singing bowl and get a ton of used books for a great price.(Great for gifts, they have tarot cards, incense, crystals, jewelry and much more) Always friendly and willing to lend a helping hand. Plus, they have amazing classes! I recommend Roy Neal’s monthly astrology group class for only $ 20. I’ve gotten a few of my girlfriends to go and they loved it! Overall a great experience and it’s nice to support local and small businesses.

I’m so happy to have found this resource for books, incense, essential oils, classes on various spiritual topics, jewelry, spells, meditation etc. everything is fairly priced.

I love this place! Yes, it’s tucked out of the way, but certainly not hard to find. The energy within is elevated and comfortable. The selection of books is impressive: authors and titles I’d never heard of before. The various other metaphysical offerings(incense, oils, gems, artifacts, etc.) were interesting and priced fairly. What I REALLY loved about Shining Lotus Metaphysical Bookstore was their used book room. It’s located in the back of the store and is chock-full of neat old books you won’t find at most other metaphysical bookstores. These used books, being special for simply being largely unheard of(by me), were also really well-priced. I bought a few and will be back to get more. I wanted to buy them all! They also offer readings and classes, so look into that too. If you’re into metaphysics — things like chakras, channeling, psychic phenomena, auras, alt religion, astral projection, etc. — definitely try Shining Lotus Metaphysical Bookstore. I prefer them a great deal to other stores, for example Isis — because they do not oversell or overprice. Check it out!

I like this place under new ownership. Great used bookstore selection. Good prices. They have some very good readers here, including Maria Veo and Kelly Whetstone.

You might not stumble across this place unless you know where you’re going. A bit off the beaten path. Good parking. Small to medium-sized store. Definitely worth a visit if you’re a metaphysics fan. The books are the main draw. Lots of used ones, as well as a few shelves of new ones. Some of the categories include: Celtic spirituality, shamanism, numerology, alternative Christianity, crystals, meditation, Tarot, astral projection, Alexander Crowley, Wicca & paganism, chakras, and plenty of other obscure subjects that I haven’t heard about. They have a very small selection of trinkets(incense, jewelry, meditation aids, crystals, etc). They also have Tarot readers working there on a regular basis, and other such events on their calendar. Minus one star for the«meh» NON-book selection. Minus one more star because there is just nothing there that makes me want to return. Although I don’t have any major complaints about this store, I don’t have much to give in the way of compliments. It seems to be an average, run-of-the-mill new-age store.

This store is tucked away off CO and Evans and I’m so glad I found it! I love this store. The staff is always so nice and helpful. The prices are very reasonable and the selection of new and used books is great. They also offer a variety of classes and a variety of speaking engagements. Please don’t pass this by, this store is a little gem!

Another fine example of Denver’s eclectic bookstores! Shining Lotus is a metaphysical bookstore with the additional accouterments of jewelry, statues, tarot cards, incense and herbs. What sets them apart from other metaphysical bookstores is that they also carry used books! With about 7000 new books and 2000 used books to choose from, they’ve got all the topics in their niche covered. In addition to their wide book selection, they also offer readings daily. Whether you are interested in tarot, palmistry, numerology of other forms of spiritual readings, someone is there every afternoon. They also have other events and some are free! Not as big as Isis, but I really love their used book selection!
