The Zapotecs used Tagetes Lucida as a primary herb in purification rituals.
The plant is also very popular among the Tarahumara Indians of Chihuahua and is used by the modern Huichol Indians in their peyote rituals.

In herbal tea, it brings an effect that is both relaxing and euphoric, soft and deep.
