Meet Elizabeth
Elizabeth Dixon began her first company, Altar Space, in 2019 with $700. With the support of our amazing community she has now expanded her once-tiny venture into 3 unique businesses: Altar Space, The Empress and our newest addition, Otherworldly Antiques!
Elizabeth aims to offer our growing community hand-picked crystals and other metaphysical treasures, but also a safe place for spiritual seekers to gather and find each other.

HAND SELECTED CRYSTALS
Altar Space came alive in early 2019. Elizabeth had $700 saved up and decided to go to the Tucson Gem Show for the very first time. She came back and had her very first crystal "pop-up" at an apothecary in Lockhart, Texas. She started with what she had (a cut up piece of fabric as a table cloth and absolutely no signage), and the first event was a success and it has been unfolding and evolving ever since. The support from the community in Texas and on Instagram has been what has kept Altar Space growing and expanding.
Altar Space now consists of the wholesale arm of our business. You can explore crystal centric social posts on our Instagram or reach out to us about buying our incredible herbal products wholesale.
Let customers speak for us
I love every single time I shop there. Your employees are attentive and suggest great items.
I gifted the candle to my 16 year old Niece and she lovvvved it
From origins and history of traditions and symbols to celebrating Yule around the world, this book is all inclusive. It includes ways to celebrate alone or with family and friends, from simple meditations to decor crafts and food preparations. I especially enjoyed the calendar that gives a suggestion for an activity each day from December 1st to 31st.
As a someone who wants to grow a deeper understanding of the work I do and learn how to improve and grow with my craft, this book has been amazing. It highlights almost every aspect of witchcraft as well as the history of these practices. I would highly recommend this book to other witches and anyone remotely curious about the craft.
The original art work paired with the rose gold and pink was the perfect upgrade from my last deck!
I love the unicorn stone. I also buy the to give as gifts. They are not that easy to find.
As walked into thecstore, these beauties were whatvmy eyes saw. I recognized spirit telling me I needed this support as I work through emotional pain as my husband's health declines.
Love all the pretty colors. So beautiful to wear with others or alone.
This is my favorite bracelet right now, it shines so beautifully in the light.
I love the artistic design and unique beauty 💙
The handrolled Palo Santo incense is the nicest I have ever purchased. I've so many visitors ask what the amazing smell is

Although I hate having to use one to read the tiny tarot fonts, I adore this piece.
