The Pointed Hat Temple and Shop

Greetings and blessings! Thank you for flying by our campaign page! Let us tell you our dream and what we're all about...

We opened this temple and shop with the dream of a spiritual safe haven, where people of all faiths and spiritual seekers can come to connect with each other and receive guidance and understanding. 

We hold weekly, monthly and seasonal events, classes, workshops, open rituals, healing and prayer circles, holiday celebrations, bake sales, vendor fairs, and local festivals.

We invite you to join us in growing and making this community a better place through magick, prayer, community service, fundraisers, volunteer work, food and charity drives, and local events.

As you can see, we do a lot here! And we do so in a humble and quaint little space... for now. That's where your help and support can come in! 

 We're not just a retail space, and our dream is to expand and grow into a spiritual community center and a safe haven to provide solace, spirit, and support. Not only is this temple, circle, and space for Pagans of all paths, but for our entire local community and our neighborhoods. We are grateful and loving for our space now and we make the most of what we have; we use this retail sales floor and back stock combination as a retail shop, office space, merchandise back stock, online order and shipment area, sacred space and temple, event and community room, classroom, fundraising and food drive center, and private area for readings and the like. Whoo! That's a lot! We really do a great job of using our space! 

However, our hope is to buy the entire building where our little business and temple are located, so that we can have the community center and spiritual safe haven we've always dreamed of to help heal our neighbors, cities and local government, businesses, and economy, as well as our land and animals. We want to make a difference in this world and help steer it toward love, compassion, prosperity, and healing, starting in our own backyard.

There are two total residential and commercial spaces each in this building:

As ordained Pagan Priest and Priestess, we are here to provde our community with a variety of spiritual services such as weekly prayer and healing circles, open rituals for religious holidays and sacred days, spiritual healings and blessings, handfasting and wedding ceremonies, and house cleansings and blessings. With the exception of house cleansings and blessings, all the spiritual services we provide would be even more healing and beneficial to our parishioners in a sacred space dedicated only to acts of spirit and healing. A place all to itself for those who come here to pray, practice spellwork, meditate, attend healing circles and religious rituals, and be a part of spiritual ceremonies, just like any traditional temple or church can provide to their parishioners. The residential apartment space above us would surely help with that; As Priest and Priestess we would have quarters near our temple just as in other faiths, and the extra space can be accomodated into a temple, meditation, and altar space. More people would be able to participate in ritual and circle, with more comfort, privacy, and space to move!

There is another residential apartment to the back and left of us, with a front and back porch and entrance and front and side yard, complete with the big, bright tub we use as an herbal garden. This space is where we imagine the recreational, social event, fundraising, and community area to be, complete with a food pantry and soup kitchen and the space to expand our merchandise from mystical supplies to more new age and general items.

Events are a big part of our dream and what we do here. With a separate physical space dedicated to events and social mixers, there is s place for Wiccans, Witches, Pagans, and all to meet, connect, share experiences, guidance, and knowledge, and create representation in our communities. Having a fun and comfortable space for people to enjoy while feeding their soul is something we live for!

And speaking of feeding, we cater all of our events and mixers with snacks, treats, and refreshments; having a kitchen and pantry would help us serve homemade food that's fresher and healthier with a place to properly store larger amounts of food for events, our community food pantry, and our volunteers.

By the way, our community food pantry is another reason we long to use the entire building for our dream. We would have more space to store food, be able to take perishable donations, and start a soup kitchen to help provide fresh, hot meals to locals in need, along with non- perishable food. Plus, our volunteers and we will have a nicer space to take breaks during the day and eat balanced meals, and the porches can be transformed into designated outdoor smoking and dining areas for guests and volunteers.

The front and side yards that we mentioned earlier would become community gardens for herbs, fruits, vegetables, and flowers.

Here at shop, we also offer services such as tarot, psychic, and medium readings and energy work such as chakra balancings and aura cleansings. Our patrons rely on these services for healing of their overall energies and spirit and as a way to unwind from the stresses of everyday life. To lhe left of our shop entrance is a commercial office space, filled with cubicles and private offices- perfect for reading, healing, and meditation rooms, classes, spiritual counseling sessions, and personal offices.

With this space, we can have an entire area dedicated to these things. That will provide each and every patron the most peaceful, private, and connected experience possible. And with the entire building dedicated to what we're doing, no one ever has to feel distracted by stomping feet or laundry cycles while they're connecting to a loved one that passed during a reading or while in the middle of a guided meditation!

Having this space would also allow us to teach classes in a more peaceful and concentrated atmosphere and give our students the wonderful and efficient learning space they deserve. Our spiritual counseling clients would also have a discreet side entrance to come in for their sessions and have a private space to talk with our Priest or Priestess, just as in any other church or temple. These offices not only benefit these clients, but will allow ourselves to conduct more efficient and organized operations for the business end and grow as business owners.

And finally, our retail space would become much more spacious and efficient to accomodate expanding lines of merchandise, more online orders, and inventory storage and organization. A smoother running, more successful business means that we generate prosperity in our local community, which positively affects the area's economy and brings in more tourist visits. It also means that each and every customer and patron have the best shopping experience possible, and leave feeling understood and informed and with everything  for their mystical, spiritual, and magickal needs.

 And of course, we can't forget about the back parking lot! Having full access to this parking lot would help accomodate all the different patrons, customers, clients, parishioners, family, and friends stopping by to sit a spell... including a space for our own "broom"!

We are thankful to receive other donations to the temple and its parishioners for tealight candles and lighters for prayers and rituals, incense for sacred offerings, food and refreshments for customers, events, and circles, herbs for cleansings and healings, toilet paper, paper towels, and soap for guests, paper plates, plastic utensils, napkins, and condiments for ritual feasts and event, pape, ink, and supplies for our classes and workshops, arts and crafts supplies like materials, paint, glitter, and glue for crafting events and workshop, cleaning supplies to keep the temple clean for all of our guests,electricity, heating/cooling, and rent of the space to keep the temple open and operational, and monetary donations to pay for it all.

Thank you for all your love and support and we hope to continue to grow and transform our sacred space and temple for you and for our God and Goddess. Blessed be to all!

Thank you again for anything you can offer; if it be a donation of funds or kind words and prayer, all are welcome.

 Also we here at the temple are putting together gift packages of services like readings and some hand-crafted merchandise for those whom are able and willing to make sizeable donations. All donations will receive prayers of thanks and gratitude because every donation helps and is so greatly appreciated.

Thanks for reading from Charlie and Carol. – Blessings.
