It was a very busy, very exciting day at Portal Leith yesterday.

The Shore was absolutely jumping on the second day of the Festival.

The energy in the shop was incredible - between Sam’s synchronicity cards and Derek’s playlist, the synchronicities were popping left, right and centre.

We got a visit from the gorgeous whose reiki-infused, home-grown cleansing herb bunches (which felt like they were literally radiating heat!). They’re available in the shop now.

We had tarot from our bud Jenni, who’s back today for more of the same- drop us a message if you fancy a reading. Or just pop in and soak up the magick. We’d love to see you! 😍

As we know, good things very often come in small packages, and that was definitely true of our day yesterday!

Derek introduced his new wee Portal Ghosts- these are created, painted & finished, individually by hand, making each ghost unique. Get your hands on one from the first batch while you can!

We also decided to do our bit during Pride month by creating ‘Wee Bottles of Pride’ and little Rainbow Bags full of beautiful, colourful crystal chips and nuggets. All profits from these sales will go to our friends over at (who we collect donations for throughout the year).

It’s Thursday! As always we have tarot and palm readings with Estlin of

As you can see by our t shirts and totes, we’ve been having a bit of fun transferring our art onto stuff! Right now in The Portal you’ll find totes with the shop logo, Sam’s Persevere & graffitied Kirkgate Vic statue and Derek’s black cat designs. The only question is, what else should go on a tote…?!

It’s Friday! We don’t have anyone with us reading today but Jenni will be in on Saturday and Sunday, so drop us a message if you’d like to book.

Drop in today if you can! We’d love to see you.

We had the very best start to the week as we were joined by our eldest son, Lee, who’s keen to help out in the shop. He hit the ground running by creating a couple of beautiful crystal sets for people who want to connect with natural spaces like, forests and beaches, which will be available soon.

It’s Thursday! We have tarot and palm readings with our pal Estlin - drop us a message if you fancy a spot with her today.

Pop in if you can! We’d love to see you.

We are absolutely obsessed with crystals, stones, tektites & other natural treasures here at Portal Leith and and we have so many that sometimes it can be overwhelming, especially for people who are new to ‘all this stuff’.

We are always on hand to help, but our mission is to help people understand that the only person who knows which stone is right for you is you 😃

One way to find your stone is to start with a need (eg increased confidence)

Work out the energy centre(s) this relates to (eg solar plexus)

And start to pick up stones that resonate with that centre (eg yellow, gold etc).

Or - and I highly recommend this method- set the intention, and let your intuition guide you to what you need 😊 If this means you pick the stone you think is prettiest, that’s 100% fine! Remember - you cannot get this wrong.

We are open today (Sunday) 12-4, with tarot from our Jenni. Drop in if you can- we’d love to see you!
