Moon Goddess - the fairy den I've had an eye on this little shop for a while. It just beckoned to me - not too surprisingly. The Moon Goddess (the shop that is) is located on North Broadway in Truth or Consequences, NM. I walk past it quite often on my way to one of the little restaurants nearby, or the Second Hand Rose (another great little shop with imported clothing and New Age "schtuff") However, as befits a fairy den, the shop is open when its open and when it's not, its closed. At last I found it open. The inside does not disappoint. If you are of a fey bent of mind, you will feel right at home. Of course, you will also want one of everything, from the one of a kind jewelry, gifts, and clothing to the incense and bookmarks. Much of the merchandise is hand made by the owner and her fairy friends, truly one of a kind items. Others are from more commercial outlets, but no less delightful to the fairy mind. I went in for an incense burner with Bast as a cat which I had seen from the window. I left with the burner, four kinds of incense (Night Queen! You can never find Night Queen!), a new bright pink and white and grey and black poncho with bright pink fringe and a pink fur collar, and a set of Amy Brown Fairy Cards. Less than a week later I was back to get one of the "Splat Fairy" that my husband had admired. (Cute little resin fairies who have obviously had a close encounter of a window kind) I tell you, it is a real effort to drag myself out without spending every single penny I have. The owners name is Twyla, and she is a fairy, too. The eclectic hours are explained by her two jobs - and she manages to squeeze in running this special place somehow, too! So, you never know - but if you are fey and you are ever in Truth or Consequences someday - serendipity has it that the Moon Goddess is bound to be open. Dive into the fairy den and revel in all the sparkly wonder! Blessedbe Summer Posted: Monday 24th September 2007, 4:36 PM
