Calea zachatechichi [ternifolia]
Is this plant forbidden by God? Should we use it as Christians or not? I dunno but let's go over some facts. Shamans in Mexico used it in ways forbidden by the bible in Deuteronomy 18. They used it in divination and even referred to it as "leaf of God". This may be an indication of idolatry as well. Spirits can reside within objects. Because of the potential toxcicity that this specific plant has, we can link this with the definition of sorcery as well ( poisons ) . "ethnobotanical" vendors online love to call divination prophecy in their stores, but never warn that you're charting into territory that the bible prohibits, and for good reason. God is a spirit, and thou shalt server no other spirits before him. St John 4:24 God is a spirit.
Dream Herb is a plant scientifically known as Calea zachatechichi. Modern researchers have been and still are studying the phenomenon of dreams, as phytochemist study related alkaloids. A lot of cultures vary on their beliefs surrounding dreams, and the use of substances or "tools". Let me share a biblical perspective. The first two commandments are essential in this matter, as well as other rules in the bible and a solid understanding of the difference between divination and prophesy. The word says 2 Peter 1:"21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost." Some jump to the conclusion that this means there is no communication from God through dreams but Job 33:14 is the remedy for that which reads: "For God speaketh once, yea twice, yet man perceiveth it not. 15 In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed; 16 Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth their instruction, 17 That he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man. 18 He keepeth back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword." Finally, one last verse which shows that prophecy can come in dreams is Numbers 12:6 “And he said, Hear now my words: If there be a prophet among you, I the LORD will make myself known unto him in a vision, and will speak unto him in a dream.”
Different cultures and religions view them differently. The Buddhist practice lucid dreaming. Shamans consumed plants they claimed gave them "prophetic dreams", such as Calea zacatechichi. These nightly visions are believed by some to be your unconscious mind communicating to you in the form of symbols, all of which are universally known in the human collective consciousness. The bible says dreams can be from God ( can be ). There is a relationship between dreams, the soul/spirit, and heavenly realms, and even demonic(so be careful!) Any plant or substance that helps induce them or enhance them is referred to as an oneirogen. Feel free to check out the free online dream dictionary that I put together based on biblical scripture.
The plant known as "dream herb", or Calea zacatechichi was traditionally used by the Chontal Natives of Oaxaca, Mexico( {pic-1, pic-2} in the form of a tea. The Chontals would drink it while smoking a cigarette made up of the leaves before going to sleep. Capsules and extracts are also sold, and it's often suggest to use any other method and not smoking or drinking it, because it taste horrible. The locals referred to the plant as the "Leaf Of God". Individuals who partook (oneironauts) in the herbal preparation, were able to experience vivid, prophetic, and lucid dreams.Biblical warning: Please discern the difference between prophecy and divination, because a lot of cultures practiced divination and modern vendors label it all as "prophecy" ( there is a difference! ) Modern studies have shown an increase in activity in the brain after consuming "Calea zacatechichi" (scientific name). I'm a firm believer that God made this for our benefit. It's critical however, to avoid attaching false doctrine to its use, and to avoid making it into a false God. One must put the Most High before all, and give him credit for his creation rather than viewing his creation as a God itself.
Aside from being used to enhance dreams, the herbal remedy was used for dysentery and fever, and the Zoque Popoluca people call the plant tam huñi ("bitter gum") and use it to treat diarrhea and asthma, and the Mixe people know it as poop taam ujts ("white bitter herb") and use it for stomachache and fever. Other lore indicates its use for headache among other things. The plant is designed to be a pharmacy in a way, and produce complex pharmacological constituents like: flavones such as acacetin and sesquiterpene lactones such as germacranolides. The sesquiterpenes known as caleicines and caleochromenes may be active in its effects on sleep. For more info on this see scholar.google.com or other academic journals. Please research spiritual gifts in 1 Corinthians 12 and utilize your discernment to avoid opening a door for the enemy to come into your life.
Dreams are one of Gods most incredible creations. Calea z. makes it easier to remember those dreams. The more you remember the more you will be interested in your dreams. Did you know that the bible actually speaks of God using dreams to share prophecy with us? There is also mention of Angels ( ministering spirits ) visiting Gods people in the scripture.Shamans call them "spirits", but Christians call them Angels. This is powerful information because there are fallen angels too, so this means that they too can visit you in your dreams. All the more reason to seek the Lord. I believe this stuff should be not be used everyday and likely in small doses. It has no drug like effects what-so-ever, although there have been people making false claims about it online, or viewing it in a "hopeful" manner. This is dangerous and obnoxious, and is false doctrine. The plant has no drug like effects, and consuming it sober will cause no effects what-so-ever. Please avoid participating in any form of deception. People repeat what they hear, and it spreads like fire.
Many extracts of Dream Herb are available on the market. Assuming they're real and legit they could contain high concentrations of the active pharmacological chemicals, many of which also tend to have medicinal value according to peer reviewed journals written by trained and educated scholars. I do however, never reccomend extracts. IMO, it at least borders on an abomination. Stick with whole leaf/plant material. Keep in mind that while Calea z is primarily used as a dream herb, it has other medicinal qualities as well according to phytochemical journals. I also suggest avoiding making purchases from vendors who have graven images on their packaging of things in the heaven above, or the earth beneath. See the ten commandments, and use discernment with wierd symbols on packaging.
You need to pray to Yeshua Christ and ask him if it's ok not me. I do think there are better options for herbal supplements that will help with dream recall, diet mostly, eat good, whole, real foods, not fortune 500 and pharma(serpent medical) I want to remind of you Psalm 91:1, or as I like to call it, Psalms 911. "He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High God, will abide in the shadow of the Almighty." NASB By Zondervan. Follow his rules and exalt him above all, and be humble, and pray, and you will be well my friend. For it is HE who heals you, and HE who you want to hear from in your dreams. ---A lot of people suggest starting a dream journal and this works. I suggest merging your dream journal into your relationship with God journal. Every morning when you wake up write down everything you remember. Include sensations, colors, anything that you really want to understand ( subconscious and unconscious symbols ), settings, themes, attitudes, behaviors, people, places, and animals. These are all vital clues that you can use to decode and interpret. I put together a dream dictionary based on biblical scripture to help you interpret. Pray to God for discernment and interpretation. A lot of the time they are so obvious.

Revelation 22: "And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb. 2 In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.3 And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him: 4 And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads. 5 And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever. 6 And he said unto me, These sayings are faithful and true: and the Lord God of the holy prophets sent his angel to shew unto his servants the things which must shortly be done. 7 Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book."
