SUMMARY:Fall Weather Work Ceremonies
DESCRIPTION:This series of events is hosted by the Weather Workers.\nThese are closed\, specialized gatherings\, accompanied by open ceremonies.\nFall Weather Ceremonies\nAn Ancient Tradition of Gratitude & Abundance\nEach year in late fall\, many who have been initiated into the Nahua rain tradition—known as Quiapaquiz (“bringers of water” in Nahuatl) or Tiemperos (“workers of the rain time” in Spanish)—gather at sacred altars and ceremonial sites in the central highlands of Mexico. Together\, they offer gratitude for the rains that nourished the land throughout the growing season and perform ancient ceremonies to conclude the rain cycle. \nThese time-honored rites symbolically close the spiritual door for the season\, allowing Tlaloc—the sacred force that brings the rains—to rest\, dream\, and begin the sacred work of germination in preparation for the coming cycle. \nThis ceremonial work is deeply rooted in the ancestral understanding of balance between human beings and the spiritual presence of weather. Once initiated into this ancient and still-living path\, Tiemperos\, also called Graniceros (storm pacifiers)\, serve as bridges—conduits between the powerful forces of wind\, cloud\, lightning\, and rain\, and the people who rely on these life-giving elements. \nLong ago\, it was revealed that this relationship between humans and the spirits of weather is not only possible—it is essential. It allows for the blessing of rain to reach the earth in harmony\, and provides a way to mitigate destructive storms through reciprocal connection and devotion. \nWe are part of a continuous lineage handed down through Don Lucio Campos to our current Temachtian (teacher)\, Don David Wiley. This sacred path is not chosen lightly—it is a lifelong calling that demands devotion\, humility\, and a deep commitment to learning. Its purpose is both practical and spiritual: to bring beneficial weather and to strengthen humanity’s sacred relationship with the natural and unseen worlds. \nIf you would like to attend one of our open ceremonies or learn more about the Granicero tradition\, please reach out to us at:\n📩 workingforweather@keepsthefire.org \n

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.
