Datura, ‘Thorn Apple’ or ‘Toloache’ (Datura inoxia) is a mostly night-blooming perennial shrub belonging to the Solanaecea (Nightshade) family. Several varieties of datura have can be found across the globe, often self-seeding in abandoned rubbish piles and barren lots thereby gaining an invasive reputation due to their extremely adaptable nature to variable ecological conditions.
Toloache of the Americas, is reportedly the most significant of all the thorn apple species in regard to its chemical properties and significant role in human civilisations since around 1250 B.C. Excavations of ancient ceremonial sites of the ‘Zuñi Pueblo’ peoples of America’s southwest, showed evidence of them using the seeds for ritual purposes.
Datura as a genus has long been applied as an entheogenic herb, especially in Mexico and the Southwestern desert, playing major roles in native medicine, coming-of-age, and magico-religious rites. However, the undoubted danger as a potent narcotic and poison has never been disputed, even since the earliest of times. Datura is considered so powerful that it must only be handled by those with experienced relation to the plant. Datura is thought by some indigenous peoples to represent the first ‘shaman’ (for lack of a better term) with Creation stories centering the plant, and has been associated with the ‘trickster’ archetype.
Datura is more often known for its toxic reputation, causing insanity and employment for malicious use by sorcerers or brujas. Many practitioners believe datura to be especially dangerous because it gives the users power indiscriminately. The Aztecs supposedly referred to it by the Nahuatl names toloatzin and toloaxihuitl, meaning "the plant with the nodding head," and utilised it for therapeutic purposes, such as poultices for wounds due to its pain-relieving properties.
The Zuñi believe that the plant belongs to the Rain Priest Fraternity and only its members may collect its roots. It is said these priests put the powdered roots into their eyes to commune with the ‘Feathered Kingdom’ at night, and the roots were chewed to ask the dead to mediate with the spirits for rain.
Although written evidence is limited, there are some reports of various Nations using Datura inoxia for deadening pain in minor surgical operations, bone-setting, and cleaning wounds.
Today, some indigenous Mexicans still use datura for hallucinogenic, medicinal, and aphrodisiac purposes, potentially infused into alcoholic beverages such as pulque, tesguino and mescal. However rightly so, datura is ultimately looked upon with respect, timidity, and/or disdain with many believing it has an intimate connection to the lower realms, or dark practices that may appear eerie to some.

The flower essence of Datura is made through lunar infusion, imprinting the flower’s vibration within the water’s energetic matrix. This 15mL bottle is technically a stock bottle, meaning you can further dilute the stock essence to make dosage bottles [read more on Flower Essences, including their method of action, how to use them & how to make up a dosage bottle]. Each stock bottle contains 7 drops of the original mother essence of Datura made under the Cancer full moon of January 2025.
The virtues of Datura can be obtained through ingesting the essence, anointing talismans and candles, and adding a few drops to a room spray or floor wash.
