Calea Zacatechichi (synonym Calea ternifolia) is a plant used by the Chontal Indians of Mexico to obtain divinatory messages through dreaming. It is commonly known as "Dream Herb" or "Leaf of God". Traditionally, the plant was rolled into a cigarette and smoked before bedtime to bring relaxation and fluidity to mind and body and usher in an easy and deep sleep during which the dreamer was to find the gates to the dreamscape gently opened. The Indians of Oaxaca, Mexico report that it clarifies the senses and induces dreams with some auditory shifting when fresh or dried Calea herb is used.
