SUMMARY:GFF Recovery Day
DESCRIPTION:Don David is not available on this day.\nDon David Wiley as a Conduit of the God of Fire\nDon David Wiley serves as a powerful conduit of the God of Fire. During his intense work\, when Tatewarí takes control of his being\, he is swept into a transcendent state—his body’s temperature soars\, and he enters a trance-like condition reminiscent of a deep\, ceremonial sleep. Meanwhile\, Grandfather Fire spends the night offering his wisdom—constantly ingesting sacred hot cocoa and smoking sacred tabaco. In this state\, although Don David remains unharmed\, his physical body endures a heavy strain. \nWhen the night finishes and attendees leave\, his dedicated Recovery Team\, comprised of handpicked ritual support individuals\, plays a vital role. As the divine presence recedes and Grandfather departs from the physical realm\, this committed group guides Don David back into his body. The morning after the Grandfather Fires\, Don David awakens feeling discombobulated and spaced\, requiring time to reconnect with his extremities and regain a sense of physical presence. A strong hands-on therapeutic session and a day of focused recovery are key to shaking off the residual ethereal numbness\, allowing him to reestablish strength\, clarity\, and focus. \nThough Don David often jokes about the challenges of navigating our physical form—humor that echoes Grandfather Fire’s own playful jibes at human bodies when using Don David’s body as a vessel to speak to us during an audience—the recovery process remains an essential part of his work. It ensures that the extraordinary service he offers—allowing others to listen to the wisdom shared by the God of Fire—stays balanced and true\, ultimately enhancing the profound healing he brings to those he serves.

SUMMARY:Audience with Grandfather Fire: Harvest Tsantawu Festival
DESCRIPTION:This is a closed specialized audience hosted by the Tsantawu Coincil.\nAudience with Grandfather Fire: \nA Sacred Opening\nAs part of the Fall Harvest Tsantawu Festival\, the Audience with Grandfather Fire takes place at the end of the first full workday. This private gathering offers the Ritual Team direct guidance from Divine\, ensuring that their service aligns with the deeper intentions of the season. \nUnlike the Spring Audience\, which is held at the end of their time together\, this Fall gathering provides essential insight before stepping into sacred work. Grandfather Fire\, speaking through Don David Wiley\, offers wisdom that illuminates the path forward\, helping the team attune to the needs of the land\, the elements\, and the spiritual forces at play. \nDuring this time\, Don David surrenders fully\, as Grandfather Fire takes over his body\, sending him “to the workshop.” He remains unaware of what transpires until the following day when the Ritual Pilot shares Grandfather’s guidance\, ensuring that the message remains pure and unfiltered. \nAfter the Audience\, the Ritual Team dedicates a full day to absorbing\, reflecting on\, and discussing Grandfather’s words. This time of integration is vital\, allowing each member to embody the wisdom received before stepping into their roles. With hearts aligned and purpose clarified\, they enter the ceremony fully prepared to fulfill their part in the sacred cycle of reciprocity between humanity\, nature\, and the unseen forces that sustain life.

SUMMARY:Online Counseling Sessions Day
DESCRIPTION:Ancient Wisdom for Modern Lives\nOne of the greatest challenges Don David Wiley faced as a shaman in the Western world was bridging the profound wisdom of indigenous traditions with the realities of contemporary life. Shamanic healing is often misunderstood—its depth\, its simplicity\, and its transformative power. \nThrough decades of apprenticeship and practice\, Don David has mastered the art of healing\, weaving together the teachings of his mentors with living indigenous traditions. His work has touched lives across the globe\, offering clarity\, restoration\, and deep spiritual connection. \nYet one key insight has shaped how he serves Western seekers: We love to talk. We worry that if we don’t explain ourselves perfectly\, we won’t be understood. That’s why—whether you’ve had an in-person healing session or are simply called to explore shamanic wisdom—Don David now offers online consultations via Zoom. \nThese sessions provide guidance\, follow-up support\, or a deeper look into the spiritual forces at work or dormant in your life. No matter where you are in the world—or where Don David’s journey takes him—you can connect from the comfort of your home or office. \nAll you need is: \n✔ A computer or smartphone\n✔ A stable internet connection\n✔ A quiet\, private space\n✔ An appointment \nStep beyond the limits of distance and let ancient wisdom meet you exactly where you are. \n“True transformation doesn’t require proximity—only presence\, intention\, and an open heart.” —Don David Wiley \nBook your appointment.\nContact Consultorio

SUMMARY:Continuous Education Prep - Traditional Medicine Paths
DESCRIPTION:Curriculum design & planning\nBridging the vast and often forgotten ancestral wisdom of indigenous traditions with the Western modern world is a monumental task in itself. Yet Don David Wiley has taken on this sacred mission\, facing countless ongoing challenges to design and deliver programs that are not only tangible and replicable\, but that carry the weight and authenticity of true spiritual teachings.\nWhat makes this even more profound is the care with which Don David ensures that what is shared is exactly what needs to be shared—stripped of anything superfluous or misleading\, and offered with clear intention. He has had to navigate the assumptions and filters of contemporary\, educated minds\, which often believe they already understand how life works. In contrast\, Don David invites students to unlearn\, to return to a deeper way of knowing rooted in direct relationship with Divine\, nature\, and the sacred. \nMuch of this knowledge was originally passed down through oral tradition—shared from one generation to the next\, in sacred trust. Don David has found powerful ways to bring these teachings into the modern world without compromising their essence. Surfing between realms\, he draws what is needed from the intangible into the tangible—bridging spirit and form with clarity and purpose. \nAfter his intense training\, apprenticeship\, and initiations with living teachers in both the Nahua and Wixárika traditions\, Don David has now successfully trained the first generations of Western shamanic healers: Tepahtiani & Mara’akate. These pioneers have taken their place in the living web of healing and service. \nToday\, Don David is supported by a devoted team in both traditions—people who are helping him structure what can now be recognized as a curriculum of spiritual training. These teachings span different levels of commitment and engagement\, guiding those whose souls are being called back to the basics: to ancestral knowledge\, lived wisdom\, and real practices that can restore balance\, not only within individuals\, but across communities\, lands\, and generations. \nWe offer our deepest gratitude to Don David’s teaching assistants\, who provide him with invaluable support and help carry this great work forward. A heartfelt shout-out to each of you—for the unseen and sacred service you embody. \n

SUMMARY:In Service: Voluntary Mentorship & Guidance
DESCRIPTION:Mentoring Calls\nAs part of his sacred service\, Don David Wiley dedicates monthly and bi-weekly mentoring and counseling sessions to those who lead organizations and endeavors sparked by Grandfather Fire—such as Sacred Fire and its many branches of spiritual work. Though his time is incredibly limited\, Don David selflessly volunteers these sessions to ensure that the flame of Grandfather’s guidance continues to illuminate the path for others.\nHis mentorship helps anchor offerings like Firekeeping in alignment with Grandfather Fire’s wisdom. This support ensures that the reach of this medicine continues to expand\, making it available to all who feel the call of Fire stirring within them. \nWorking closely with long-time community members such as Annie King—who has been instrumental in designing and implementing the Firekeeping training programs\, facilitations\, and retreats—Don David continues to weave together a living legacy of support\, connection\, and transformation. \nHe also offers regular mentoring to the Executive Director of Sacred Fire\, helping navigate the complex responsibilities of leading such a revolutionary endeavor. Through this guidance\, the sacred work of reigniting humanity’s relationship with the medicine of Fire is sustained and strengthened. \nAdditionally\, Don David offers volunteer mentorship to the Tsantawu Men’s Council\, which oversees the biannual rituals at Stone Mountain. These rituals are dedicated to cultivating relationship with the land\, ancestral beings\, and the seasonal rains—a vital act of reciprocity and spiritual stewardship. \nThough unseen by many\, these efforts are essential threads in the living fabric of spiritual reconnection that Don David helps sustain. His dedication is a reminder that true leadership is rooted in service\, and that sacred work continues quietly and powerfully behind the scenes\, fueled by love\, commitment\, and the wisdom of Fire.

SUMMARY:Online Counseling Sessions Day
DESCRIPTION:Ancient Wisdom for Modern Lives\nOne of the greatest challenges Don David Wiley faced as a shaman in the Western world was bridging the profound wisdom of indigenous traditions with the realities of contemporary life. Shamanic healing is often misunderstood—its depth\, its simplicity\, and its transformative power. \nThrough decades of apprenticeship and practice\, Don David has mastered the art of healing\, weaving together the teachings of his mentors with living indigenous traditions. His work has touched lives across the globe\, offering clarity\, restoration\, and deep spiritual connection. \nYet one key insight has shaped how he serves Western seekers: We love to talk. We worry that if we don’t explain ourselves perfectly\, we won’t be understood. That’s why—whether you’ve had an in-person healing session or are simply called to explore shamanic wisdom—Don David now offers online consultations via Zoom. \nThese sessions provide guidance\, follow-up support\, or a deeper look into the spiritual forces at work or dormant in your life. No matter where you are in the world—or where Don David’s journey takes him—you can connect from the comfort of your home or office. \nAll you need is: \n✔ A computer or smartphone\n✔ A stable internet connection\n✔ A quiet\, private space\n✔ An appointment \nStep beyond the limits of distance and let ancient wisdom meet you exactly where you are. \n“True transformation doesn’t require proximity—only presence\, intention\, and an open heart.” —Don David Wiley \nBook your appointment.\nContact Consultorio

DESCRIPTION:Mentoring Calls\nAs part of his sacred service\, Don David Wiley dedicates monthly and bi-weekly mentoring and counseling sessions to those who lead organizations and endeavors sparked by Grandfather Fire—such as Sacred Fire and its many branches of spiritual work.

This support ensures that the reach of this medicine continues to expand\, making it available to all who feel the call of Fire stirring within them. \nWorking closely with long-time community members such as Annie King—who has been instrumental in designing and implementing the Firekeeping training programs\, facilitations\, and retreats—Don David continues to weave together a living legacy of support\, connection\, and transformation. \nHe also offers regular mentoring to the Executive Director of Sacred Fire\, helping navigate the complex responsibilities of leading such a revolutionary endeavor. Through this guidance\, the sacred work of reigniting humanity’s relationship with the medicine of Fire is sustained and strengthened. \nAdditionally\, Don David offers volunteer mentorship to the Tsantawu Men’s Council\, which oversees the biannual rituals at Stone Mountain. These rituals are dedicated to cultivating relationship with the land\, ancestral beings\, and the seasonal rains—a vital act of reciprocity and spiritual stewardship. \nThough unseen by many\, these efforts are essential threads in the living fabric of spiritual reconnection that Don David helps sustain. His dedication is a reminder that true leadership is rooted in service\, and that sacred work continues quietly and powerfully behind the scenes\, fueled by love\, commitment\, and the wisdom of Fire.

SUMMARY:GFF Recovery Day
DESCRIPTION:Don David is not available on this day.\nDon David Wiley as a Conduit of the God of Fire\nDon David Wiley serves as a powerful conduit of the God of Fire. During his intense work\, when Tatewarí takes control of his being\, he is swept into a transcendent state—his body’s temperature soars\, and he enters a trance-like condition reminiscent of a deep\, ceremonial sleep. Meanwhile\, Grandfather Fire spends the night offering his wisdom—constantly ingesting sacred hot cocoa and smoking sacred tabaco. In this state\, although Don David remains unharmed\, his physical body endures a heavy strain. \nWhen the night finishes and attendees leave\, his dedicated Recovery Team\, comprised of handpicked ritual support individuals\, plays a vital role. As the divine presence recedes and Grandfather departs from the physical realm\, this committed group guides Don David back into his body. The morning after the Grandfather Fires\, Don David awakens feeling discombobulated and spaced\, requiring time to reconnect with his extremities and regain a sense of physical presence. A strong hands-on therapeutic session and a day of focused recovery are key to shaking off the residual ethereal numbness\, allowing him to reestablish strength\, clarity\, and focus. \nThough Don David often jokes about the challenges of navigating our physical form—humor that echoes Grandfather Fire’s own playful jibes at human bodies when using Don David’s body as a vessel to speak to us during an audience—the recovery process remains an essential part of his work. It ensures that the extraordinary service he offers—allowing others to listen to the wisdom shared by the God of Fire—stays balanced and true\, ultimately enhancing the profound healing he brings to those he serves.

SUMMARY:Continuous Education Prep - Traditional Medicine Paths
DESCRIPTION:Curriculum design & planning\nBridging the vast and often forgotten ancestral wisdom of indigenous traditions with the Western modern world is a monumental task in itself. Yet Don David Wiley has taken on this sacred mission\, facing countless ongoing challenges to design and deliver programs that are not only tangible and replicable\, but that carry the weight and authenticity of true spiritual teachings.\nWhat makes this even more profound is the care with which Don David ensures that what is shared is exactly what needs to be shared—stripped of anything superfluous or misleading\, and offered with clear intention. He has had to navigate the assumptions and filters of contemporary\, educated minds\, which often believe they already understand how life works. In contrast\, Don David invites students to unlearn\, to return to a deeper way of knowing rooted in direct relationship with Divine\, nature\, and the sacred. \nMuch of this knowledge was originally passed down through oral tradition—shared from one generation to the next\, in sacred trust. Don David has found powerful ways to bring these teachings into the modern world without compromising their essence. Surfing between realms\, he draws what is needed from the intangible into the tangible—bridging spirit and form with clarity and purpose. \nAfter his intense training\, apprenticeship\, and initiations with living teachers in both the Nahua and Wixárika traditions\, Don David has now successfully trained the first generations of Western shamanic healers: Tepahtiani & Mara’akate. These pioneers have taken their place in the living web of healing and service. \nToday\, Don David is supported by a devoted team in both traditions—people who are helping him structure what can now be recognized as a curriculum of spiritual training. These teachings span different levels of commitment and engagement\, guiding those whose souls are being called back to the basics: to ancestral knowledge\, lived wisdom\, and real practices that can restore balance\, not only within individuals\, but across communities\, lands\, and generations. \nWe offer our deepest gratitude to Don David’s teaching assistants\, who provide him with invaluable support and help carry this great work forward. A heartfelt shout-out to each of you—for the unseen and sacred service you embody. \n

SUMMARY:In Service: Voluntary Mentorship & Guidance
DESCRIPTION:Mentoring Calls\nAs part of his sacred service\, Don David Wiley dedicates monthly and bi-weekly mentoring and counseling sessions to those who lead organizations and endeavors sparked by Grandfather Fire—such as Sacred Fire and its many branches of spiritual work. Though his time is incredibly limited\, Don David selflessly volunteers these sessions to ensure that the flame of Grandfather’s guidance continues to illuminate the path for others.\nHis mentorship helps anchor offerings like Firekeeping in alignment with Grandfather Fire’s wisdom. This support ensures that the reach of this medicine continues to expand\, making it available to all who feel the call of Fire stirring within them. \nWorking closely with long-time community members such as Annie King—who has been instrumental in designing and implementing the Firekeeping training programs\, facilitations\, and retreats—Don David continues to weave together a living legacy of support\, connection\, and transformation. \nHe also offers regular mentoring to the Executive Director of Sacred Fire\, helping navigate the complex responsibilities of leading such a revolutionary endeavor. Through this guidance\, the sacred work of reigniting humanity’s relationship with the medicine of Fire is sustained and strengthened. \nAdditionally\, Don David offers volunteer mentorship to the Tsantawu Men’s Council\, which oversees the biannual rituals at Stone Mountain. These rituals are dedicated to cultivating relationship with the land\, ancestral beings\, and the seasonal rains—a vital act of reciprocity and spiritual stewardship. \nThough unseen by many\, these efforts are essential threads in the living fabric of spiritual reconnection that Don David helps sustain. His dedication is a reminder that true leadership is rooted in service\, and that sacred work continues quietly and powerfully behind the scenes\, fueled by love\, commitment\, and the wisdom of Fire.
