"I really enjoyed the Practical Tarot workshop—it was such a grounding and inspiring experience, and I’ve been continuing to explore the cards since then." - Sabine S.
“Avery is a gift to the Amsterdam witchy community!” - Natalie
“I attended both the tuning into your intuition and waning moon workshop. As a more intermediate practitioner I didn't expect to still learn this much from these workshops. The intuition workshop gave me creative tools to attune to my intuition more, that I otherwise wouldn't have thought off. The waning moon workshop especially helped me create a personal waning moon ritual based off Avery's tips, that I will be trying to do every lunar cycle. Furthermore, they are a very open and warm person that knows how to make witchcraft approachable for all levels and individuals. I felt right at home at both workshops and have been able to make friendships and find community thanks to them!” - Chaymae
"Avery is a relatable and compelling individual with a way of teaching that's easy and accesible to anyone; whether you're a complete beginner with no spiritual background or a experienced practitioner, anyone can take away something useful from a workshop with them." - Shay
“Avery taught a brilliant workshop that I think caters to both beginners and more seasoned witches. I really enjoyed their energy and enthusiasm for teaching their wisdom!” - Kiki
“A really enjoyable and unique experience. I learned a lot and felt comfortable throughout the workshop. A valuable experience overall, and looking forward to more workshops!” - Andrea
“I found Avery to be insightful, eloquent and very clearly experienced. I could listen to them tell stories from their craft & tarot experiences for days!” - Margaret
“Avery's explanations were very clear and the workshop was both insightful and fun - the intimate group size made it even more engaging. A definite recommend!” - Nina
Creating your witchcraft practice was an amazing neurodivergent-friendly workshop with helpful tips for building a daily practice of devotion. All information was provided in a helpful booklet so I could focus on being present rather than writing notes. The group who gathered was magical, welcoming and open-minded and Avery facilitated with care and consciousness. Dancing in the basement of a witchy shop made me feel like I had made great life choices. Also lots of snacks. - Harriet
"The workshop was accessible, well documented with a helpful workshop booklet, a set of mini-cards and practical exercises and in the great setting of Black Moon Bottanica's workshop space. Avery is knowledgeable and very approachable as a guide. Truly worthwhile for beginners (fools, magicians and aces!)" - P.
