Description

Mugwort is an aromatic plant with a rich history, with many ancient cultures putting it to use. Mugwort plays an important role in Chinese acupuncture, with a history dating back 3000 years. It is used in moxibustion, a process in which mugwort leaves are burned over acupuncture points to help release energy. Moxibustion can help treat menstrual cramping, stimulate a regular menstrual cycle and may even encourage unborn infants to move into the correct position prior to delivery. Other health benefits of include: to treat diarrhoea and constipation, headaches and nosebleeds, for insomnia, nerve problems, fever and chills. Mugwort leaves are also used in cooking for their bitter flavour and as a natural insecticide in the garden.

Mugwort has long been used by many cultures for prophetic dreaming and astral traveling (its Paiute name translates literally to “Dream Plant”). Smoking the herb directly into the lungs, or burning it as incense in the afternoon, assists with lucid dreaming. Drinking the calming, liver cleansing tea before sleep may also keep you longer in a conscious dream state (REM sleep). This herb often helps one heal while dreaming. Some users report having darker dreams that reveal hidden insights and core wounds, helping them to find closure.

Apart from the intensification of prophetic visual imagery during sleep, this herb magnifies the brilliance of your dreams and overall duration of your sleep. It is also popular among herbalists to aid in relieving menstrual pains, joint pains and headaches.

Due to its calming nature, mugwort is often associated with sleep; however, its effects on dreams are what mugwort is most known for. Artemisia, the Latin botanical name of mugwort, comes from the name of the Greek moon goddess, Artemis. The moon, as a guiding light of the night, hints at mugwort’s abilities to enhance dreams. In folklore, it is said that mugwort helps the dreamer remember their dreams easier. It is also said to help increase awareness during dreams, stimulate lucid dreaming, and increase psychic sensitivity. Mugwort is believed to initiate clarity of the dream experience and bring awareness to the dream’s purpose in waking life. It is known as a visionary herb that opens one to dreams of the future.

Mugwort has been classified as an herbal oneirogen, which is a plant that produces or enhances dream-like states of consciousness.
