Silene capensis, native to the green grasslands of southern Africa, is a plant with remarkable properties, deeply rooted in African spiritual traditions. Nicknamed “the root of the African dream,” it is revered for its ability to induce vivid, lucid dreams, playing a key role in the divination and healing practices of indigenous peoples.
Healers and shamans traditionally use Silene capensis root to prepare infusions or decoctions, consumed in a ritual setting before sleep. This practice aims to facilitate communication with the ancestral world, to receive spiritual guidance through dreams and to promote inner healing.
Silene capensis is particularly appreciated for its gentle but profound action on the mind, allowing those who consume it to access dreamlike levels of consciousness rarely reached, thus promoting the exploration of the universe of dreams with clarity and increased intensity.
