This is a cute little shop that covers lots of spiritual interests including Zodiac, Wicca and Tarot and lots of other stuff. The wares are pretty, and some of them are original. It’s worth a stop and shop for a unique gift or to restock your own supply of incenses.

Really love this shop! When the owner's golden retriever is there, I love it even more! They have a wide selection of gemstones and jewelry. Everything is labeled and I always find great pieces. The prices are fair especially for some of the more rare stones and the selection is huge. It's one of my favorite spots in Athens!

I'm not sure why this is called Margo Sterling Silver; sterling silver appears to be just a minuscule part of the business in the store. Overall, based on what I saw in the store, this is a metaphysical business.I saw great looking handmade jewelry, knick knacks for the home, incense, tantra-related items, stones and other merchandise. A couple of the things that caught my eye because I have an interest in them are the crystals and sage. Margo has a big selection of stones and crystals.People burn sage (in a ritual called smudging) to clear away negativity. I've smudged my place a few times with a bundle of burning white sage, and I know it helped because I felt a calmness and contentment after I got done. Margo sells various types of sage that customers can smudge their spaces and their selves to eliminate negativity and increase positivity. I have also interest in crystals, of which Margo has a big selection. The two types of crystals that I have are black obsidian and clear quartz crystals, both of which have protective properties. One of clear quartz's benefits is enhancing mental clarity. It can help with emotional stability, and it's popular in meditation and restorative work. It's also often used for manifestation and can help create more focus and clarity around a desire. It is a protective stone and can be used to amplify psychic abilities. I have white quartz crystals near my front door to dispel any negative energies entering my home, and on my nightstand to amplify the effect of the black obsidian crystal that I keep near it. One of the most popular uses of black obsidian is to create a shield of protection to ward off negative or harmful energies. I wear a black obsidian bracelet to help absorb negativity that I may encounter. I also have black obsidian crystals in the four corners of my condo to help ward off negative and harmful energies. Does it work? I know they do.I like that throughout the store are handwritten descriptions and explanations either on or near the crystals. These are great for customers who are interested in incorporating crystals into their lives. However, customers who buy them should also learn how to use the crystals (the best placement for them, how to energize them, how to cleanse them, etc.) after they're purchased to learn how to put them to best use for themselves.One thing that I'd like to point out when I was in the store was that there were way too many strong scents concentrated in one specific area on the left side of the store. I took a couple of regular breaths in and the scents hit me hard. Think of the strong and multiple scents affecting your nose as being similar to strong and multiple noises affecting your ears. When I smelled the odors together I got dizzy, realized that scents were affecting me and immediately walked to the other side of the store. I was fine after breathing in non-scented air. I didn't get a good look at the object(s) that caused my dizziness. It would've been good to know so that I could avoid a similar situation in the future.

Overall, awesome shop! I love going in here and showing people who visit. Good inventory and nice employees. The pricing is high, but I understand it is downtown. My only gripe is I've heard the owner bad-mouth some customers after they left, not very nice/professional. Still recommend stopping in.

Absolutely love going in. I always find exactly what I'm looking for... and more! The staff is so friendly and not to mention their dog, Gypsy, she is so cute. Also the owner is in there regularly and it is always great to chat with her. I really appreciate having a metaphysical store so close to me! Easily my favorite store.

The staff were so fun and hilarious to talk to! The puppy there is just adorable and so sweet. I couldn't ask for anything more, I will definitely be back. I recommend this store to anyone and everyone!

I always stop at Margo when I’m in Athens and it never disappoints. Everyone that works there is always so friendly and willing to help you find what you need. I went in today with a lot of questions and Cam(/Kam?) was extremely helpful. It’s hard for me to ask for help, but he was so down to earth and it made me feel more comfortable asking questions. In between my questions, he was making me laugh and helping many other customers that entered the store. Super sweet guy. Got one of your fanny packs and a lapis lazuli today, but I’ll definitely be back soon!

racist Jill likes to hire bipoc people then mistreat them. myself and 5 other secret shoppers have documented how she's mistreated her employees time and time again. one day while I was a secret shopper she even insulted the art I make. Jill likes to throw around the N word and talk poorly of employees behind their back when they aren't at work. she sells dream catchers,sage,Palo Santo and other items from closed practices. after interviewing curfe t employees I decided to look back and seek out info from previous employees. I found out that while another employee had worked there for 6 months Jill was never there to train said employee and quit once she returned. the lack in professionalism is astonishing. if you are queer,trans,black or indigenous I would recommend you be careful around this tyrant and if you have any care for us who are marginalized I'd recommend that you no longer support this business.

I really enjoy shopping here for all of my metaphysical needs. I often go there at least a few times a month whether its for crystals, sage, incenses, singing bowls, etc. or just to take a little break from the outside world, it's such a great place. The staff is so friendly and helpful and I feel safe when shopping here. If I have any questions whether it be about a crystal or a singing bowl, the staff is just right there to lend a helping hand. I really enjoy the atmosphere and seeing Gypsy (a cute ginger dog with a cute pink nose) walking around. The aura in there is just calming and welcoming. It is really a pleasure to have such a wonderful shop in Athens.
