“Wise Moon Rising: A Girl’s Rite of Passage Into Sacred Womanhood”…This is the working title of our film, a collaboration between John Jordan-Cascade, an Oregon-based filmmaker and Georgette Star, educator, spiritual guide and founder of Maiden Spirit, a young girls support program based in Portland, Oregon.

“Wise Moon Rising” offers an inspiring glimpse into the heart of the Maiden Spirit Spirituality and Rite-of-Passage program, which is the gradual and intentional preparation for a girl’s conscious and celebrated rite of passage into sacred womanhood at menarche (first moon or period).
