Blue Lotus, also known as Nymphaea Caerulea, has been revered since ancient times as a symbol of spiritual awakening, intuition, and divine connection. Sacred to the Egyptians, this mystical flower was often depicted in temple art, funerary rites, and mythology as a gateway between the worlds, the rising sun, rebirth, and transcendence.

Today, when paired with ceremonial cacao, Blue Lotus becomes a gentle ally for dreamwork, meditation, and heart-opening rituals, guiding us into states of deep calm and expanded awareness.

In ancient Egypt Blue Lotus was known as a sacred symbol of the cosmos. In Egyptian mythology, the sun god Ra was said to have emerged from a Blue Lotus at the dawn of creation. The flower represented the eternal cycle of the sun, rebirth after death, and the link between earthly life and the divine.

Priests, priestesses, and pharaohs used Blue Lotus in temple rituals, often combining it with wine or burning it as incense to induce altered states of consciousness.

Blue Lotus is not psychedelic in the traditional sense, but it has subtle psychoactive properties thanks to compounds such as aporphine and nuciferine. These alkaloids interact with the nervous system to promote relaxation, mild euphoria, and dream enhancement.

For shamans and ceremonialists, Blue Lotus is considered a flower of intuition, guiding their community participants into realms of higher wisdom, inner clarity, and mystical states.

Blue Lotus is generally considered safe in ceremonial and tea doses, but it may not be suitable for everyone. Please consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, taking medications that affect serotonin or dopamine or and are sensitive to mild psychoactive herbs
