I've had my cards read at Enchantments which is a witchcraft and pagan suppl shop on 9th Street between 1st and A. The back room where they do the readings isn't picturesque, but the reading was lengthy and insightful and no attempt was made to predict doom and gloom and hustle me out of money. I was very pleased, and found it helpful.
If you are not pagan/wiccan/ etc., the environment of the store might be slightly intimidating, but they're not into any particular dark magic there, and they have some great shop cats.
For those into such things, their book selection, candle and tool selection is good, although I find I can get fresher herbs elsewhere and don't always find what I want when looking for more specific books. I've had good results with their magical oils, but I find them a bit general to my tastes. It's an excellent shop for beginners and a good shop to visit periodically in general, as they are one of the hubs of magickal stuff in NYC.
