Welcome!
Black Moon Botanica opened in early 2019, the creation of Brooke Mackay-Brock, who’s been interested in witchcraft from a young age. Brooke is an astrologer and herbologist, interested in natural magick and ancient traditions. She started making candles for her own practice as a teenager, and studied Herbology at the Royal Botanic Gardens in Edinburgh. Brooke’s dream was to create a shop that could offer a beautifully curated collection of unique tarot, artwork, ritual tools, herbs, crystals, books, and handmade artisan candles.
Since 2022, Brooke has run the business with her Dutch husband, Pieter-Paul Groenhuijsen. Together they make all of the candles, wax melts, perfume oils, bath soaks, herbal blends, and a lot more besides. The shop on Candlemaker Row in Edinburgh remains the home of the business, but Amsterdam is our next adventure.
Our location is in the heart of Amsterdam, just steps away from the world-renowned Rijksmuseum. The building at Spiegelgracht 30 is a historic rijksmonument house, dating from 1675. We have lovingly restored and redecorated the shop to fit with the history of the building, and we are so excited to welcome you to Amsterdam!
