About

Aquarius Rising is in its 30th year in Parramatta, with the first sale made on February 29th, 1988. It was the first New Age retail venture in the Parramatta district and raised considerable interest among the then rather conservative ‘Westies’

AND Crystals - Tumbled Stones, Mineral Specimens, free-form stones, Crystal Skulls ..........

Aquarius Rising is one of the best book shops I have been to in Parramatta. The customer service is the best of the best. I am a very happy customer and they even order things if it is not available in stock and the turnaround time is very good. I would give it a 5/5 rating

Hey all. Walking into this store was like a scene from a movie, for me at least. Regina is a lovely woman to talk to, it’s sad to think anyone would have an unpleasant time in her company. It was my first week at a sales job and I expected to be told off. We ended up talking for far longer than I planned to stay, and I wish I didn’t have to leave at all. She even gave me a discount on a gift for a dear friend and a little extra gift to take home myself. The titles of the books alone are intriguing, let alone the store itself, and there’d be no better shop keeper for this little hidden gem than Regina. Meeting her at the store may have made my week!

Went there once to have a browse, very nice store. Ended up speaking to the owner and she honestly was a bit of a psychotic b*$ch, sorry I honestly cannot put it any other way folks. Disagree with the owner? She won't like it and will bite your head off and speak to you in an incriminating manner and then call herself psychic, claiming to know your inner truths. Load of b.s, look elsewhere. Was a starling experience and I since have been afraid to go back. Probably will not unless she is gone.

Inspirational bookstore and healing atmosphere. Got my first crystal more than 20 years ago. A true institution and Parramatta icon. Situated in the historic Civic Arcade. Experience it before the greedy developers invade
