Calea Zacatechichi - Dream Herb - Leaf of
God is a plant used by the Chontal Indians of Mexico to
obtain divinatory messages through dreaming. Traditionally the plant
was drank as a tea while a cigarette was smoked before bed, bringing
relaxation and fluidity to mind and body, ushering in an easy and
deep sleep during which the dreamer will find the gates to the dreamscape
gently opened.
The subjective reports of dreams were significantly
higher than both placebo and diazepam, indicating an increase in
hypnagogic imagery occurring during superficial sleep stages. The
use of plant preparations in order to produce or enhance dreams
of a divinatory nature constitutes an ethnopharmacological category
that can be called "oneiromancy" and which justifies rigorous
neuropharmacological research.
Whenever it is desired to know the cause of an illness of the location
of a distant or lost person, dry leaves of the plant are smoked,
drunk and put under the pillow before going to sleep. Reportedly,
the answer to the question comes in a dream. The human dose for
divinatory purposes reported by the Chontal informant is a handful
of the dried plant.
A collection of interviews and written reports concerning the psychotropic
effects of these preparations on 12 volunteers has been published.
Free reports and direct questioning disclosed a discrete enhancement
of all sensorial perceptions, an increase in imagery, mind thought
discontinuity, void flux of ideas, and difficulties in retrieval.
These effects were followed by somnolence and a short sleep during
which lively dreams were reported by the majority of the volunteers.
These results show that zacatechichi administrations appears to
enhance the number and/or recollection of dreams during sleeping
periods. The data are in agreement with the oneirogenic reputation
of the plant among the Chontal Indians. all this suggests that Calea
zacatechichi induces episodes of lively hypnagogic imagery during
SWS stage 1 of sleep, a psychophysiological effect that would be
the basis of the ethnobotanical use of the plant as an oneirogenic
and oneiromantic agent.
