Breakdown
The quality of this item is evident upon seeing the beautiful herb! The packaging is done with care, labeled and easy to store. I absolutely loved the high quality and potency of this tea before bed. I had one of the deepest, most restorative sleeps I’ve had in a long time. Dreams have been active and introspective - very grateful to work with this beautiful medicine. Seller is communicative and kind, highly recommend!

wonderful. I have absolutely amazing dreams. This herb is really exceptional, very spiritual, very dreamlike see a can hallucinogenic but without any danger or loss of control. All kinds of visions, revelations and life lessons. As if I was floating before sleeping. Full of adventures at night and introspection. Thank you again!

I ordered 3 dream plants. Received quickly. The sachets contained a little more weight each and a sample of another plant was attached. THANKS! I am experimenting with them. If there is nothing transcendent for the moment, what is certain is that I remember my dreams much better... which has not happened to me for years, except when I receive messages from another location. I am therefore very happy to have arrived there so quickly, from the 3rd night.

We answer.
What is uvuma omhlope?
The white answerer of the sangoma — the root reputed the rarest and densest of her lineage, taken at low dose for the dream that arrives as a meeting rather than a passing image. She is uvuma omhlope (Synaptolepis kirkii), a root of southern Africa of the Thymelaeaceae family, used in the dream traditions of the Zulu and Xhosa peoples of KwaZulu-Natal, known as the African dream root.
What effects does uvuma omhlope have on dreams?
Tradition uses her for sharp, vivid and addressed dreams, sometimes felt as a meeting rather than a passive dream, with occasional visions at the threshold of sleep. The reported effects are part of a short cycle and an intention posture.
How do I prepare uvuma omhlope?
Two traditional ways. As a decoction, simmer the powdered root 20 to 30 minutes in water, to drink in the evening. As foam, the powder is beaten in cold water until forming a white foam, drunk on an empty stomach before sleep. Small dose, great intention.
What's the difference between uvuma omhlope and silene capensis?
Both are dream roots of southern Africa often associated. In tradition, it is said that one opens the path and the other sharpens the message — silene gives access, uvuma omhlope specifies the received content. Uvuma omhlope is held as denser and taken at lower dose.
How much uvuma omhlope to use?
She is a powerful plant that respects herself at low dose. Tradition holds a pinch — on the order of 0.25 to 0.5 g of powdered root — and advises not to exceed 2 g. Follow a short cycle of a few nights then leave a long rest. Traditional references, not a prescription.
Is uvuma omhlope legal in France?
Uvuma omhlope (Synaptolepis kirkii) is not a controlled substance and is sold freely as a plant. She is offered for botanical collection and personal ritual use. Always verify your country's regulation.
How long before I feel the effects?
A particularity of this root — the effect is often clear from the first night, where other dream roots build over three to five nights. The most striking dreams sometimes arrive a few days after the end of the cycle, and the inner work can extend over several weeks.
What precautions with uvuma omhlope?
Avoid in pregnancy, during breastfeeding and in children. Caution with serotonergic medications and in case of psychiatric condition. Do not associate with other strong psychoactives. Strictly respect the traditional low doses — her diterpenes can be irritating. DYOR and healthcare professional advice if needed.
