SUMMARY:CLINICAL: In-Person Nauha Healing Day in Tepoztlán\, Morelos. México.
DESCRIPTION:This is a closed program.\nThe program is hosted by Don David Wiley and supported by his office.\nTepahtiani Clinical Healing In-Person Session\nDon David Wiley offers Traditional Nahua Healing sessions as part of the training program for his Tepahtiani apprentices\, or Nahua Traditional Healers. \nThe Nahua Weather Working path has a rich healing practice\, and many have experienced the profound blessings of this work. Tepahtiani apprentices are initiated Weather Workers\, also called Graniceros or Quiatlizques\, who have taken on the additional work of learning the ancient healing practices associated with the Nahua tradition. \nDuring a Tepahtiani Clinical Healing session\, Don David Wiley performs healing work while approximately 8 of his apprentices observe and learn. These sessions are held under strict confidentiality. \nGiven that these sessions take place during a training day and in an educational environment\, the fee for these clinical healing sessions is significantly reduced. \nThis is a closed program. The program is hosted by Don David Wiley and supported by his office. Due to the nature of the training\, there is a brief application process for these appointments. Students require diversity in the different aspects of the medicine\, so requests are added to a list\, and once approved\, recipients will receive a confirmation email. \nSessions are 45 minutes long.\nThere are six appointments available\, starting at 9 AM. \nIf you would like more information\, please contact Don David Wiley’s Consultorio. \nFeel free to recommend this offering to those who may benefit from or be interested in shamanic traditional healing.

SUMMARY:Tepahtiani Training
DESCRIPTION:Tatewarí chose David Wiley to become a shaman\, guiding him to rescue the lost ancestral shamanic wisdom of indigenous medicine paths. Tatewarí recognized David’s determination\, values\, and skill set—allowing him to effectively bridge cultural and linguistic barriers so that Westerners could experience the rigorous and transformative learning process of this apprenticeship. This path requires a deep\, active relationship with Divine and the natural world—where what may seem like magic to the Western mind becomes an everyday reality. \n \nGraniceros who commit to taking the next step in their spiritual calling must awaken their already heightened senses\, preparing to grasp the profound ways in which life itself unfolds across all levels and aspects. \nDon David Wiley was trained as a Tepahtiani by Don Lucio Campos Elizalde. For years\, Don Lucio searched for someone to pass on his staff\, but he found no suitable apprentices—typically Mexicans—who were truly willing to show up\, no matter what. Don David\, however\, did. His training was reminiscent of a Karate Kid-like apprenticeship\, involving pilgrimages to sacred Nahua sites and a full commitment to his Divine calling. He was fortunate to walk alongside Don Lucio along the ancient dirt roads used by the people to reach these sacred places. \nDon Lucio rarely used vehicles\, as such machines had no place in his understanding of life and his relationship with nature. \nNow\, as Don Lucio prophesied\, individuals from the four corners of the earth are feeling called to reconnect with this lost ancient shamanic path. Those touched by Tlaloc\, the God of Rain\, have little choice in the matter—it is their path to discover whether they\, too\, are meant to become healers and serve others in a deeper\, more engaged way. \nTepahtiani apprentices in Chalma\, Mexico State. México. \nThe first generation of graduated Tepahtiani are now establishing their healing practices\, while Don David continues to work tirelessly to structure a formal teaching program—one that has never been taught in this way before. Traditionally\, Nahua shamanic wisdom was passed down orally from generation to generation\, with occasional cases where Divine directly blessed and instructed an apprentice to accelerate their process—such as Don Lucio’s three-year coma\, during which he was taught by the gods themselves. \nTrainings typically involve a Temazcalli (traditional sweat lodge)\, in-depth classes\, and a clinical healing day. These components provide a complete immersion into the ancient healing techniques\, allowing apprentices to experience the teachings not only through study but also through direct practice and personal transformation. \nIn-person classes are offered in the Mayoría at Casa Xiuhtecuhtli.

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:Spring Weather Work Ceremonies
DESCRIPTION:This series of events is hosted by the Weather Workers.\nThese are closed\, specialized events\, with open ceremonies.\nAn Ancient Tradition of Gratitude & Abundance\nDating back to pre-Columbian times\, countless generations of Graniceros have recognized the dynamic presence of the Gods and spirits as Weather Beings\, who actively interact with human lives. In ancient times\, and continuing to this day\, people have witnessed how the Weather Beings govern the rain\, winds\, and seasons\, guiding the cycles of planting and harvest—fundamental to sustaining all people\, communities\, and cultures. \nTraditionally\, God-chosen men\, women\, and their families serve their communities as initiated ambassadors to the Weather Beings\, following lineages dedicated to service. Biannual cyclical ceremonies are maintained year after year to honor the relationship between the Gods and humans through offerings of gratitude. These offerings are placed at sacred locations and temples with prayers\, songs of joy\, fiestas\, and music\, recognizing and celebrating the beneficial presence of the Weather Beings in our lives. The gifts of the Weather Beings manifest in the rich offerings of food\, beverages\, fruits\, vegetables\, flowers\, and candles—a true cornucopia of abundance. \nEach spring\, ceremonies are held in fulfillment of the prophecy of the renowned Granicero and healer (Tepahtiani)\, Don Lucio Campos Elizalde. His prophecy foretold a time when dedicated people from around the world would carry on his work\, ensuring the continuity of this ancient Nahua tradition. \nDon Lucio standing in front of the tree where he was struck by lightning\, which he dressed every spring and fall for weather work ceremonies. He chose not to return to the Granicero Ancestral Cave after the other lineage holders disagreed with his decision to teach Westerners\, even though Santa Bárbara had instructed him to do so. \n \nToday\, Don Lucio’s lineage remains strong\, and the endless generosity of the Weather Beings is honored and upheld. \nThis large and growing lineage of Weather Workers is now led by Caporal Mayor Don David Wiley. Their ceremonial home in Tepoztlán\, Morelos\, Mexico\, hosts multiple ceremonies each year at the Mayoría\, or Templo Mayor\, within Casa Xiuhtecuhtli. \n\nDavid Wiley in Nepopualco\, Morelos.

Every spring\, the seasonal Granicero ceremonies are conducted by Don David Wiley and the international community of Tiemperos under his tutelage\, who travel to Tepoztlán\, Morelos\, Mexico\, each year to give thanks for good weather and the continuation of life it sustains.
