Applying Shamanism 2025

Experience practical magic in your life.


 
Shamanic practices are not about escaping into a trance state. They are about emerging from the trance state of chronic stress, distress, and disempowerment that we call “normal reality” and entering the realms of magic and mystery.

We are now living in a time of revelation, where everything is greatly amplified. It’s easy for us to see the confusion, desperation and exploitation that appears to dominate our world. And, when we focus on these aspects, we can feel overwhelmed, confused, and powerless to effect change. We can become despondent, feeling disempowered and paralyzed by fear or even worse… numb.

But, we don’t have to settle for that – we can choose to create another reality!

The realms of magic and miracles are available to us! And, because we can enter into an expanded field of opportunities and creative possibilities, we can then create better outcomes for ourselves, our families, our communities, and our world.

My mission is to help you to connect with this creative and supportive world. I’m here to share with you traditions and practices that create beneficial outcomes – that look magical and miraculous, but that are the result of applying practical energetics to the situations and circumstances of your life.

The Applying Shamanism Program for 2025 includes many opportunities to participate in flowing energy in ways that are wildly creative and resourceful. I’m certain that you will experience profound benefit from joining in at any level. Please check it out and see how shamanic experiences and practices can enrich your life!

Our Applying Shamanism Community is an international group of individuals who are working toward a more expansive and inclusive world. Our community supports direct experiences of our innate agile, creative, resourceful, and responsive “feral” selves. And together we support the emergence of the wildly unique gifts that each of us brings to this life.

At the top of the home page, are links to services, private sessions, community offerings, shared celebrations and living ceremonies, as well as adventures and journeys into places of magic, mystery, and beauty, like Teotihuacan, Mexico.

To begin this path to increased benefit in your life, send me an email to join our mailing list, and begin experiencing practical magic for yourself: [email protected]

What is a Shaman?

When most people think of the word shaman they picture an indigenous person wearing feathers and leather moccasins circling a blazing fire with a shaker, performing incantations and strange rituals. Actually, “shaman” is a term describing a vibrational art – of being able to see, feel, hear and know things that are higher, deeper and outside of the realm of “normal” reality. 

Anyone can learn, experience, and apply shamanic skills and practices to better understand and deal with the world around us. This is what shamanzone is about. Shamanism provides guidance for your journey, and tools for navigating the world around you with grace and compassion. It offers an alternative to fear and anxiety, through alignment with authenticity and love. Listen to Francis briefly describe his work in this radio interview: 

Bringing a Blessing for 2025

We’re here at the long anticipated great turning point. Whether we’re entering a golden age or witnessing the end of world civilization is up to us. The ancient indigenous prophecy is that this is the time of the Rainbows – an emerging tribe that will bring healing and a restoration of harmony to the earth. The prophecy is clear that this moment we are now in is about people in their “rainbow bodies” bringing light, love, and care to the healing of our damaged world. Read on

 

Journey Into the World of Practical Magic

Francis practices and teaches “practical magic” – what could also be called practical energetics. He utilizes the latest developments in astro-physics, quantum physics, and neurobiology, combined with the ancient Source wisdom traditions of the indigenous people of the Americas in ways that support the evolutionary emergence of gifted, agile, wildly creative, and resourceful people.

“Healing” and greatly increased well-being are beneficial side-effects of the “flowering” of beauty and “love in action” of the people that Francis works with.
 

 

An Invitation to Life

Shamanism is the mysterious vibrational art of expanding above, below, and beyond the contracted limitations of “normal reality” into a realm of expansive possibilities and creative alternatives. This capacity is innate within you – to live fully, enjoyng the gift of life, and expressing the gifts given to you by Creation – living as a wild and passionately caring being – agile, creative, resourceful and responsive to life.

The simple truth: your expanded capacity for love, compassion, and caring is the evolutionary transformation and awakening now emerging within our species.

My grandfather, Pedro Angel Fernandez, was a “Maketo” – someone who traveled between worlds. I continue our lineage with the recognition that we’re all being called to ignite our creative agility and joy, bringing life affirming responses to the damage and distress caused by the powerful predatory exploitative systems that have ruled our world for too long.

I celebrate the expression of your deepest inner resources and gifts, including your healing and expanded well-being, extending to your family, your friends, your neighbors, community, work relationships, and to all who we share life with here on Earth.

My book – A Shaman’s Guide to Deep Beauty is a highly recommended introduction to this realm of expansive possibilities – with shamanic wisdom stories, practices, and exercises to help you navigate these changing times.

Please look around, and make yourself at home. I invite you to contact me at: [email protected] with your questions and concerns, and let’s share the magic and miracles of this “path of mutual benefit.”

The Shamanzone is a place to gather.
It offers community programs, practices, and journeys with personal
shamanic services to support you on your path.

Leonard Peltier is a deeply spiritual man – an advocate of equal rights for indigenous peoples. His art and writings reveal a compassionate and loving elder who has been a political prisoner for the majority of his adult life. Bless him now and for the few years of freedom with his family and tribe that he has left.

Leonard Peltier – A Compassionate and Loving Elder

President Biden did not “pardon” Leonard Peltier. The White House said Peltier, who is now 80 and of declining health, will transition to home confinement. This commutation is not a pardon for crimes committed, a decision many of Peltier’s advocates welcomed because he has always maintained his innocence. This last-minute move as Biden left office angered law enforcement officers who believe he is guilty. Deep investigations of the circumstances surrounding the crimes he was charged with have been demonstrated that evidence was manufactured in order to have a “fall guy” to convict, proving that the FBI was doing its job.

Law enforcement has fought tooth and nail against the extensive evidence that Leonard Peltier was in fact innocent, as he has claimed for his 50 year life in captivity. The National Congress of American Indians celebrated this “historic” decision in a statement saying the case “has long symbolized the systemic injustices faced by Indigenous Peoples.”
