• Dr. Pavini Moray (pronoun: Pe) is a blood witch, an initiate of Sha’can tradition of Shakta Tantra, a trained Reclaiming priestex, and a seasoned ritualist who prefers wild love and glitter magick. Pe is genderqueer, trans and white, of British islander descent. Pavini works as a somatic sex therapist in the mountains of Western North Carolina. Currently, Pe’s deepest practice is of erotic aliveness and improvisational play.
