The Seattle Metaphysical Library has been in downtown Ballard for the past four years, but most people don’t know of its existence (it is located in between two buildings, down a long hallway and its only sign is a piece of paper taped to a glass door). The library was established in 1961 in an apartment in Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood and later moved to the Oddfellow’s Temple in the mid 1970′s. The library has a total of 13,858 books (not including videos, cds, cassettes and dvd’s, which themselves total 1,338). Their books range in topics, from astrology, self healing, medicinal herbs, Shamanism, crystal healing, goddess studies, comparative religion, history and paranormal realms. You can visit the library and read a book, or if you wish to check out a book, you must sign up for a yearly membership which costs $40. They are always searching for volunteers to help with marketing the library, people who can manage the databases, update their website and to be there during open hours.
So, if you’re seeking answers to the great universe, how to heal your migraine with natural herbs, or to research the Dead Sea Scrolls for a research project, stop by the library and sign up for a membership!
