Ascendant Books first opened its doors in 1983. The metaphysical bookstore was started by two women, Alice Powell and Yvonne Kemp. Both women had suffered tragedies in their lives and were looking for answers as to the meanings behind them. Their love of reading and the discovery of astrology was how the two women had met.
At that time in Alberta, the community of metaphysical seekers was still very small, so they started small, too! In fact, the first location was tiny, no bigger than a kitchen, with fewer than fifty books! Thanks to word of mouth, metaphysical seekers and astrology enthusiasts became aware of Ascendant Books.
