My name is Pete (Rembrandt)
And I’m a Leo
The company was started 7 years ago. The business name came from the idea of starting something for the future, and as we all know the crystal ball is a tool to see the future.
The skills I bring to the company include 10 years as a photojournalist working for the largest Tattoo and Bike magazines in New Zealand and Australia. My photos of Tattoo and Bike events have been published all over the world.
I have also spent some time as an educational writer; writing unit standards for the NZQA frame work.
The shop has opened up new avenues for me to explore.
I love learning about the swords and other items we stock (there is something really primal about a sword).
Meeting new and interesting people is a great joy, we have such a diversity of true “characters” here in the Coromandel; and they all seem to find their way into the shop at some point.
I look forward to each day, as no two days are ever the same in this shop.

My name is Wendy

I worked as a Registered General and Obstetric Nurse for 22 years mostly in Intensive Care and Accident/ Emergency. Some of this time was spent as Supervising/Charge Nurse.
During this time I spent a lot of time gathering extra qualifications in areas like wound management, triage, and oncology. I am a certified Cervical Smear taker, and have experience running an STD clinic.
I have an Advanced Medical Diploma and several Massey papers in human development and related subjects. I have also had papers published in books through Massey University as well.
I became dissatisfied with the health system several years ago, as I no longer think that it has the “patients” best interest at heart, hence the change from hospital based nursing. As a stroke of fate my daughter decided to get a piercing and it was then we realised no one around Thames was doing body piercing so a few courses later I found myself doing body piercing.
I also have an International Masters Degree in Reiki, and due to the amount of requests we hope to be running some courses in the near future.
I have achieved Dr Doreen Virtue's certification as an Angel Intuitive.
My earliest memories involve clairvoyant abilities. During my life these abilities have become a large part of who I am. For the last 20years I have been doing readings for clients.I have writing horoscopes for radio and newspaper for the last 5 years. I spent around 18months doing 0900 tarot reading which was heaps of fun, I left to devote time to training with an English medium and healer Jean, who teaches the White Eagle spiritual knowledge. Over the next two years she taught me what it means to truly be a spiritual medium and psychic.
I have always had an interest in Tarot, Astrology, Numerology and Palmistry and teach these whenever I get the chance.
I have also studied shamanic practices and rites with Corinna Granddaughter of Crazy Horse, my given Indian name translates to Red Bear Woman.
I have had the pleasure of meeting my Indian guide for this life time and together we continue to learn from spirit.
Given my Celtic origin I have also delved into the Wiccan side of healing and magic.
My birth name is one letter different to the rune that means new beginnings.
I enjoy teaching spiritual development courses, and making mediation CD's.
