Working on macOS / catalina

Did a binary install with postgis, but having some trouble. Downloaded both postgresSQL and postgis with homebrew, seemingly successful

Ran psql -U postgres and then ran CREATE EXTENSION postgis but got the error:

[ERROR: could not open extension control file "/Library/PostgreSQL/13/share/postgresql/extension/postgis.control": No such file or directory

thought it was because my install was in my homebrew cellar directory, so I just copied it over to the above directory the create extension command went to, but when I re-login and rerun the create extension command, it gives me back the same error even though the file now exists in "/Library/PostgreSQL/13/share/postgresql/extension" - can't understand why this is happening / how the system is thinking when it gives this error, is this because it can't access the directory due to permissions?
