About John Whife
John Whife is an iconic Elder, in the Perth Hills Area for over the past 30 years walking a dedicated spiritual path. He offers community a place to 'step out of the matrix' for a bit, through Saturday night Full Moon Drummings, Agnihotra, passionately holding space for others to birth their own Medicine Hoop Drums and Holding Space and Ceremonies in his American Indian Tipi.
He is passionate about his 'Brothers' and offers support to many, including Men's only Ceremonies at potent portals of the year. He is also very handy with an industrial sewing machine, and 'pole' dancing, and has made many of the Tipi's for others within WA. He has a deep and strong connection to the Spirits of the Land and Elementals.
John is a loving father of 4, a 'wild man' grandfather to 5 (at last count ) and is devoted to his elderly parents assisting them with the upkeep of running the family farm.
He is greatly respected by the younger 'Brothers' (& Sisters) of the community, always open to have a chat, sharing his wisdom or supporting them with his generous and open heart. He gains much enjoyment from his 'Men's Only Ceremonies' in the Tipi held at auspicious times throughout the year.
John has had a committed daily practice of yoga and Agnihotra Fire Ceremony - an Ancient Vedic Healing and Cleansing Ceremony, performed at precisely Sunrise & Sunset, for almost 30 years. This benefits all that come to visit the land, keeping the frequency high, including all of the visiting winged ones, and bird tribes. A talented flautist, the tune he plays after the Fire Ceremony is mesmerising, and oftentimes the local birds will sing along too. He is deeply connected, and honouring of the Nature Spirits, the Deva's, and the Elementals, to Pachamumma.
At Brotherhood Awakening, Perth's first Men's Only Weekend Gathering, in 2023, he was recognised by Community as an Elder, taking the role of a 'First Wolf", and assisted with all of the Flow Festivals, offering Agnihotra Fire Ceremony, as well as a Cacao Ceremony at the last one, with Mandi J and Kate Nelson.
His much loved Tipi has been the home to many different types of Ceremonies over the past 25 years or so, Men's Gatherings, Womens Gatherings, Workshops, Cacao and other ancient medicine practices and rituals. The land in Gidgegannup, has been a beacon of Light for the Perth and Australian spiritual community.
Being an earth sign, he is deeply connected to the land, spending much of his youth, riding horses, playing Polocrosse, and Polo.
He is passionate about health, and assisted to run a health retreat many moons ago, so if you talk to him for long enough he is likely to bring in the benefits of eating good food and drinking high quality water at some point!
He has co-hosted many retreats, travelling with groups to India, teaching them the practice of Agnihotra on the banks of Ganga, to Broome, and Margaret River.
