When women heal themselves, they heal the world.
Natasha Bray
The circles of women around us weave invisible nets of love that carry us when we are weak and sing with us when we are strong.

Who are circles for?
Circles are for all women!
If you find yourself craving deep and authentic connection with other women, in a nurturing space fuelled by compassion, then circles are for you. Our circles focus on personal growth and building a nurturing community.
Wisdom Rising circles are inclusive, so that as many women as possible can benefit from being seen, understood, and known. Circles are offered in a secular manner, so you are free to interpret your circle experience through the lens of your own beliefs and world view.
The activities offered in circle are grounded in positive psychology, and aim to be 'woo-woo free.' Oracle cards are used as a way of gaining intuitive insight about a situation. They're a little like the inkblot tests used by psychologists, and are not used for telling fortunes. The stories we weave around the images can give us important messages from our unconscious minds.
Our women’s circles are open to all women and female-identifying folks. The recommended age for women’s circle participation is 16, though mature younger teens could be accommodated. We learn from women of all generations!
Oracle cards from three different decks. What do the images mean to you?
Ritual is the act of sanctifying action - even everyday action - so that it becomes meaningful. I can light a candle because I need the light, or because the candle represents the light I need.

About Us
Hi!
I'm Nikki. I started Wisdom Rising as a way of bringing women together to experience being part of a supportive community focused on self growth. I've been a teacher for many years and have a background in psychology, and I wanted to use these skills in new ways to benefit others.
Wisdom Rising is not for profit. I offer women's circles on a donation basis to help cover the cost of hiring the space.
