However, this curious plant is perhaps most notorious for its ability to induce lucid dreams that were believed to enable communication with the spirit world. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTraditional healers or \u003cem\u003eshamans\u003c\/em\u003e turn dried seeds into a powder, which is then smoked in a pipe before sleep. This sacred ceremony sends the subject into a deep dream state. Here, direct communication is forged between the living and spirit worlds, and one is able to ask their ancestors for significant advice. Other African tribes used the Dream Bean’s chocolate-colored seeds as amulets or good luck charms, stringing them together to create pieces of jewelry.
