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!

Have you stepped into The Portal yet?

Portal Leith is an occult shop, nestled in an historic, 400 year old building in the very heart of the ancient Port of Leith- moments from the gorgeous Leith Shore & Water of Leith walkway, and a short tram ride from Edinburgh city centre.

Portal Leith is a cosy, welcoming, magickal space, owned by Derek & Sam, with everything you could ask for from an occult shop and much, much more, including…

One of the biggest crystal collections in Edinburgh; essentials & tools for witchcraft, magick & divination; jewellery; vintage, antiques & curios; oracle & tarot decks; loads of gifts, and the work of over 30 local artists & makers, including us- Derek & Sam 🤩 (and FYI, you’ll find no AI at Portal Leith)

Every day we’re open we also play host to one of our regular readers who are highly skilled in tarot, palmistry and other forms of divination.

Portal Leith is proudly AuDHD- owned & is a safe, welcoming & inclusive space 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Derek’s Portal Ghosts take over a week from start to finish. Every ghost is shaped by hand, giving it its own, completely unique character. They’re also numbered and signed by Derek; hand painted and given layers and layers of protective, glossy lacquer.

Your Portal Ghost is waiting for you - come and find them!

There aren’t many jobs you can honestly say you don’t mind doing on your birthday, but spending it in our lovely wee shop is definitely one of them.

We got visits from two Portal icons yesterday - and who both treated us to a cheeky wee restock 🥰
