Seven Stars

A longtime clerk once told the Harvard Crimson that an Oxford-degreed customer called this one of only three top-level esoteric/occult bookstores in the world — and a Sorbonne professor still flies in from Paris every year to order boxes of books shipped to France. Classical music plays over shelves of tarot decks, UFO-abduction literature, and gemstones in a space that started life a few blocks away under the name Shambala.

The move: Split up for twenty minutes in the stacks — one of you in astrology and tarot, the other in the UFO/Roswell section — then compare your weirdest find over coffee in Central Square.
