Full Description
The heart of the river—gentle, attuned, expansive.
Bobinsana (Calliandra angustifolia) is a sacred river plant traditionally used in Amazonian medicine as a teacher plant, known for its warm, heart-centered energy and capacity to deepen emotional and spiritual connection. Often described as gentle yet profound, Bobinsana helps awaken a sense of presence, attunement, and intimacy with both self and surroundings.
On a physical level, Bobinsana has been used to support cardiovascular health, ease arthritis and joint pain, and promote restorative sleep. Spiritually, it is cherished for enhancing lucid dreaming, shamanic journeying, and opening the heart space—making it a favored ally for those exploring consciousness.
Bobinsana is also a natural MAOI (monoamine oxidase inhibitor), meaning it can gently amplify the effects of other psychoactive plants and substances. While its solo effect is often subtle—soft, luxurious, and grounding—it shines when blended with other tinctures or ceremonial compounds, making it a powerful potentiator in any personalized mix.
At Pendragon, we view the art of combining tinctures as sacred alchemy. Bobinsana plays a key role in this process, helping to weave other plant spirits into harmony.
Please note: Because of its MAOI properties, Bobinsana may interact with SSRIs, 5-MeO-DMT, and certain pharmaceuticals. Always do your research or consult a professional if unsure.
Dosage & Pairing Suggestions
Bobinsana is gentle, but don’t mistake that for weak—this plant works on subtle levels, deepening whatever it is paired with and enhancing the body’s receptivity to emotion, movement, and spirit. Start with just a few drops. Wait 15 minutes, and see what you feel. If it’s too subtle, double the dose and try again. Continue this process until you find your personal dose. Some people feel its effects at a whisper, others need more to fully tune in.
Bobinsana can be taken on its own as a heart-opening, emotionally attuning ally—or it can be layered with other tinctures to amplify and unify their effects. It functions like a sacred bridge, enhancing both physical and spiritual experiences.
In fact, all tinctures are strengthened by Bobinsana. It smooths the edges, opens the heart, and helps energy flow more gracefully through the body and mind.
For a sensual and aphrodisiac effect, pair it with Love Potion, which already contains a bit of Bobinsana and benefits from more. Together they awaken emotion, connection, and dance-like movement.
To brighten the mood and amplify euphoric connection, blend with Sassafras. This pairing is perfect for cuddling, dancing, or heart-led celebration.
For lucid dreaming and visionary states, Bobinsana combines beautifully with Blue Lotus or Osha. These three together open the dream space, soften the ego, and allow symbolic messages to rise.
To soften into sedation and deep rest, pair with Poppy. For sleep, nerve pain, or emotional release, combine with Valerian for a deeper descent into stillness and release.
Bobinsana is a medicine of intimacy—not just with others, but with yourself. Use it to deepen whatever journey you’re on, and to remember that sensitivity is strength.
