For grocery stores, it’s been cleaning supplies that have been flying off the shelves over the past year. For Synchronicity gift shop in Brewster, it’s been spiritual “necessities”—candles, crystals and tarot cards—that have been especially popular with customers.

“Candles are very popular. People love to work with them to manifest,” says owner Marcus Feighery. “Since Covid we are seeing a lot of new customers just starting on their spiritual journey. Many come to explore our large selection of crystals. But we’re constantly offering new products and crystals, so our loyal customers always have a great variety of new products to choose from.” 

Synchronicity also operates a large online store, and it’s on Facebook and Instagram (@synchronicityny), where Feighery expects to host live crystal and product sales this spring.

“We continually run contests on social media to win free psychic readings,” he adds. “They’ve have been a longtime customer favorite since we opened in 2006.”

Synchronicity hosts psychic mediums and tarot readers, who offer both in-person and phone sessions. It also hosts in-person and virtual classes and events.

“This spring I’ll be teaching Reiki 1 and 2 and Master Reiki, and we’ll also offer classes in teen meditation, live paranormal investigations and psychic development. As for online classes, we’ll be hosting an Astral Journeying class Fridays at 8 p.m. on Zoom.
