They can be difficult to define and consequently, even harder to find.<br />I once moved to a new state and I desperately needed to find a metaphysical shop that catered to my unique needs. Looking in the yellow pages netted 1 gift shop that just happened to sell candles and incense.<br />My online searching wasn't must better. I found 5 listings on a well known pagan website, only one of which wasn't closed and it wasn't even close to where I lived. I did eventually meet a few like minded locals who were able to clue me in on the hot spots for people like myself. But it was hard work... and when I finally got to the shop... it was February I moved to that state in June!<br />I decided at that point that there HAD to be another way. So again I began searching; I found a few things online and a couple of hard copy directories but nothing up to date and comprehensive.<br />So this is my idea, a free widely available resource that will be up to date, reliable and comprehensive. I have been toying with this idea for over 4 years and it just cannot shake it.<br />I will be honest, I have no idea how to do this. But that isn't going to stop me from trying.<br />At this point I am simply going to start posting listings of businesses that I find and that I think will be relevent to my so called "purple" community. I will refine my process as I go and (hopefully) get some feedback on this project. If you have any ideas or comments please let me know!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1812958517158572639-5948362606671578713?l=purplepagesproject.blogspot.com'/></div>Jennipher Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14921309546095492379noreply@blogger.com0
