Weaving Wisdom Within:

At SoWisdom we are committed to sustaining sacred traditions of women sharing wisdom with one another and passing on that shared wisdom to the next seven generations of women and girls (trans and gender fluid included). We believe that women are intrinsically connected to the health of our planet and instrumental to the healing of humanity.  When women remember how to walk in balance with the receptive nature of their divine feminine energy and the expressive nature of their sacred masculine energy, eventually, so too will all of humanity follow example.

Weaving Wisdom Within (WWW) is a multi-tiered Relevant Rites of Passage program that inspires and educates women at every stage of their lives to seek and weave wisdom within their feelings, thoughts and actions helping to create a more sustainable and compassionate world of Sense-able, Response-able, Divinely Inspired women who know how to love themselves, support their sisters, live in balance, make choices with concern for the future, lead by example and wield their Personal Power with Creative Purpose. 

Through WWW Rev. Karma Cloud and guest Mentors introduce girls and young women to concepts and practices of Sustaining the Sacredness of Earth Cycles, Seasons and Sources of Energy, Self Love, Self Care, Self Determination, Self Transformation, Sisterhood, and Sowing Wisdom.  Using guided meditations, questing conversations and expressive art explorations, each Sacred Circle provides a safe creative space for women and girls to retreat from the external world of Solar time and return to the internal worlds within worlds of Lunar time. WWW reminds women and girls how to attune with the rhythm of the moon and access their innate power to reflect, receive, retrieve and rebirth themselves with each lunar cycle.  By recovering this monthly Rite of Passage for women and girls, WWW restores life to the Givers of Life, replenishing them with the clarity, creativity, compassion and confidence needed to consciously express and courageously assert themselves in the light of day.

No matter what our color, creed or class, we, as women, need to remember the value and Creative Purpose of cyclically taking time outside of time to gather together, lay down our burdens, shed our fears, share our stories and dreams, listen, learn, laugh, cry, replenish ourselves and support one another in the process of becoming our visions!

Come, weave wisdom with us!

Sacred Circle Healing Quests for Sisters of Support (20s & 30s)

and Women of Wisdom (40 & up) $310

Are you on the verge of becoming your dreams yet feeling like you are falling apart at the seams?  You are not alone! Life is a Cycle that just won't stop.  It is a perpetual process of coming undone to become one within one! This is the Nature of Life-to heal, to make whole, to bring forth many from one and one from many. We become One through coming undone. We divide in order to multiply, to birth and rebirth, generate and regenerate our many selves again and again. We integrate and dis-integrate. That is the process. THE PROCESS IS THE PURPOSE, THE MEDICINE, THE MAGIC! Learn to trust the process, accept the Cycle, navigate your own Psycles and Master Metamorphosis through the flux of Life. So whether Life is lifting you up or pulling you down, you remember how to ebb or flow.

LIFE IS INITIATING YOU! Are you ready to let go of everything you think you know and grow into who you already are? If so, let the Weaving begin!

Parents of Wisdom

How do you apply the concepts and practices of SoWisdom with parenting? So you've been learning to weave wisdom within for yourself, and that's hard enough, but now how do you do it in relationship to others? How do you sustain the sacred self knowledge growing inside you as you help grow that self knowledge of your young wise ones who can make you feel like coming undone all too often?  Share your wisdom with and gather wisdom from other P.o.W.s.  Bring your questions, concerns, current challenges, on-going struggles and discoveries to this Sacred Circle sharing and sowing wisdom.  Together we will re-source and re-view the concepts of SoWisdom to help us uncover and discover the Creative Life Solutions that best apply to your current parenting moment!
