Entry No. 17 — the San Diego file — filed under: witch store

Botanica Mama Roots

Self-billed as San Diego's oldest witch store, running since 1989 — it started out downtown and got pushed to Adams Avenue when the block was razed for Petco Park. Owner I-Star, who goes by priestess and psychic, stocks Wicca, Santeria, and Voodoo supplies on the same shelves.

The move: Book a joint tarot or psychic reading with I-Star in the back of the shop, then wander Adams Avenue's antique row afterward to talk through what came up.
