Jan Fries
From Biocrawler, the free encyclopedia.
Jan Fries is a German occultist, freestyle shaman, and author of several books.
Jan Fries is credited with coining the term freestyle shamanism in reference to a style of magic that emphasizes trance and closeness to nature, but instead of roots in a shamanic tradition, draws from individual experience in a way akin to chaos magic. He notes the Zos Kia Cultus, Maat Magick and Taoism as his chief influences.
