Paradise Found

Paradise Found Paradise Found-Peace, Love & Good Vibes since 1986. Enrich Your Life with Beauty, Truth & Goodness! That we share this with you is better than bliss on a bun!

We are a bookstore and more for the Body, Mind & Spirit, located in beautiful Santa Barbara, California. At Paradise Found our intention is to set a banquet table filled with a scrumptious feast of beauty, truth, and goodness; and then serve the offerings with love in an environment of peace. You are invited to graze through the wisdom of the ages horizontally, snacking on this or that; or vertica

lly, tasting one path in all its flavorful dimensions. Behind a humble facade, Paradise Found is a veritable treasure trove containing a sampling of the accumulated, ever unfolding, spiritual explorations, discoveries, and wisdom of our human species. "There is a paradise in and around you right now, and to be there you don't even have to make a move, not even lifting your eyes from this page. You can open yourself to the diamond like perfection of everything you see and feel. If you don't think it can happen to you that easily, just be loving, moment by moment, and trust that it will come to you." Thaddeus Golas, The Lazy Man's Guide to Enlightenment

New Moon in Gemini | Sunday, June 14, 2026 at 7:53pm PT 🌑♊️

“The New Moon in Gemini is on Sunday 6/14 7:53 pm Pacific. It’s time for another refresh, this one centering on our emotional and mental well-being. We get frazzled in these strange times and need to use tools and practices to help unwind the mind and keep the body relaxed. This could also include simply talking things through and catching up with our people, playing some games, appreciating nature, and having some fun. Let’s focus on the simple things.”

Ripples of Rainbow | Crystals for the New Moon in Gemini ✨🌑♊️✨

✨Rainbow Moonstone | Rainbow Moonstone acts as a prism, diffusing energy throughout the aura. It provides psychic protection, clearing the mind and senses, and aids in lucid dreaming and calm sleep. It has a white color with flashes of blue. Aligned with the Goddess, Rainbow Moonstones connect with the energies and spirits of Nature, from plant devas to galactic consciousness.

✨Howlite | Howlite decreases stress, anxiety and selfishness. This crystal brings calm and relaxation, releases old emotional pain, and decreases anger. White Howlite is also an aid to relieving insomnia, especially when caused by an overactive mind.

Howlite strengthens memory and stimulates desire for knowledge. It formulates ambitions and aids in achieving them. It teaches patience and helps to eliminate rage, pain and stress. A calming stone, Howlite calms communication, facilitates awareness and encourages emotional expression.

✨Clear Quartz | Light Embodied, Clear Quartz conducts and transmits energy, and stores information like a natural computer, making it an efficient receptor for programming. This versatile crystal can be used with all of the chakras.

Assists in meditation, spiritual development, healing and purification of body, mind and spirit. Clarifies and amplifies physical and mental energies while harmonizing the individual with the energy of the universe. Magnifies ambient energies.

Full Moon in Sagittarius | Sunday, May 31st, 2026 at 1:46am PT🌕♐️

“This Blue Moon in Sagittarius brings an opportunity that rarely comes around. It is time to take a quantum leap into the unknown. Not a small, calculated step. Not a carefully planned move where you can see every inch of ground ahead of you. A leap. The kind where your feet leave the earth and for a moment you are suspended in midair, trusting that you will land somewhere new and extraordinary. Sagittarius teaches you that you are always capable of catching yourself. No matter how far you leap, no matter how unfamiliar the terrain, you have everything within you to find your footing. You always have and you always will.

Think about every time in your life when you took a chance without knowing the outcome. Think about the moments when you said yes before you felt ready, when you followed a pull in your gut even though your mind was screaming to stay put. You survived every single one of those moments. More than survived, you grew from them. You became who you are because of them. Sagittarius wants you to remember this. You have evidence in your own life that you are capable of leaping and landing. The question is not whether you can handle it. The question is whether you are willing to trust yourself enough to try.

This Full Moon is here to release the part of you that believes you need to see the whole staircase before you take the first step. It is here to dissolve the illusion that safety comes from staying still. Real safety comes from knowing yourself deeply enough to trust that you can navigate whatever comes. It comes from your ability to find the higher meaning in every experience, to learn the lesson, and to keep going. Sagittarius teaches that there is no wrong turn on this journey. There are only new roads that deliver new wisdom.”
