“We put them in the shrine box and they're burned on the equinox every year to release those good intentions into the universe," Kircher said. 

The alter at the entrance of her store is filled with trinkets and other relics of mysticism. The small box at its base is filled with positive messages. It is the focal point of her store, Alchemy and Ashes. 

Kircher's one-of-a-kind shop is dedicated to all things magic. You can find a host of different local products that deal with witchcraft all based around history and myth. 

She provides everything from candles that are designed to create better energy in a space, to a station where you can combine and create mixtures with different mystical herbs.

If you're feeling up to it you can even book yourself into a reading with one of their talented mediums who will give you a glimpse into your future.  

It's a one-of-a-kind shop perfect for the spookiest season of the year. Alchemy and Ashes is open five days a week and is closed on Sunday and Monday.
