Shipping policy

Last updated: October 13, 2026

Everything you order comes out of our botanica in St. Petersburg, Florida, packed by hand. Here's exactly how it works, so nobody has to guess.

How long before it ships

Most orders go out within 1 to 3 business days, Monday through Friday, not counting holidays.

Handmade, dressed, custom and consecrated pieces take longer, and they should. That work is done for you, with prayer and intention, and I don't rush it. If an item needs extra time, the product page tells you up front.

Shipping in the United States

  • We ship anywhere in the U.S. by USPS.
  • You'll see your shipping options and the cost at checkout before you pay. If your order qualifies for free shipping, it shows there too.
  • The day your order ships, you get an email with your tracking number.

Shipping outside the U.S.

  • We ship to the countries you see listed at checkout.
  • Duties and import taxes are added at checkout, so you pay once and there's no surprise bill waiting at your door.
  • Not everything is allowed across a border. Herbs, seeds, roots, animal items, tinctures and supplements are restricted in a lot of countries. The store only shows you what's approved to ship where you live, so if you don't see it, it can't go to you.
  • Once your package leaves the U.S., your country's customs office controls the timing. I can't speed that up, and neither can anyone else.

U.S. only

Dried chameleon (Oga Gibigbe) ships within the United States only. No exceptions.

Glass and liquids

Oils, waters, colognes and glass candles are wrapped and packed with care. Carriers still drop boxes. If something arrives broken, read our Refund Policy and email us within 7 days of delivery with photos, and we'll take care of it.

Digital products and services

eBooks, PDFs and workbooks come to your email right after you buy, so there's nothing to ship. Readings and consultations are in person or on Zoom, and we'll reach out to set your time.

Check your address

Look at your shipping address before you hit that button. If a package comes back to us because the address was wrong, you'll pay to send it out again. Once the carrier marks it delivered, it's out of my hands. If tracking stops moving before it gets to you, email us and we'll help you open a claim.
