Blue Lotus Flower is commonly made into tea, tinctures, and other extracted forms.
Nymphaea Caerulea, commonly known as blue lotus or sacred blue lily of the Nile, is a tropical water lily that features day-blooming, star-shaped flowers, each with upright, pointed, light blue petals spread flat on the water surface.
Blue lotus is sacred to Egyptian culture as a symbol of creation and rebirth. Ancient Egyptians believed the world was originally covered by water and darkness. Then a large blue lotus appeared in the water, the flower opened and light appeared thus ending darkness on Earth.
It was regarded as a symbol of the sun, since the flowers are closed at night and open again in the morning. At Heliopolis, the origin of the world was taught to have been when the sun god Ra emerged from a lotus flower growing in "primordial waters". At night, he was believed to retreat into the flower again. Due to its color, it was identified, in some beliefs, as having been the original container, in a similar manner to an egg, of, and in Atum. As such, its properties form the origin of the "lotus variant" of the Ogdoad Cosmogony. It was the symbol of the Egyptian deity Nefertem.
Nefertem, one sun god of Egyptian mythology, was originally a lotus flower at the creation of the world. He represented both the first sunlight and the delightful smell of the Egyptian Blue Lotus, born from waters within a blue waterlily. But Nefertem wasn’t only a god of the sun, he was also the god of beauty and healing. It was he who brought the flower to the sun god Ra to rejuvenate his ageing body with its healing properties.
Blue lotus flower has been historically used in Egypt for a variety of other purposes. The flowers have an alluring fragrance that reportedly induces feelings of heightened awareness and euphoria. Perfumes and oils were created. Teas made from the flowers reportedly induce feelings of calmness and tranquility. Blue lotus flowers have been widely used throughout history as a common motif in Egyptian art and architecture. King Tut’s body was found to be covered with blue lotus petals when his tomb was opened in 1922.
Nubians, Abyssinians, and Africans all associated Blue Lotus with spiritual enlightenment. Blue lotus is also highly respected by Indians and the Buddhists. It contains natural alkaloids such as aporphine and nuciferine.
Traditionally, Blue Lotus was consumed after being soaked in warm water or wine. You can derive the benefits of the blue lotus plant by making concoctions with different parts of the plant such as the flower, leaves or roots.
Blue lotus has been depicted in numerous stone carvings and paintings, including the walls of the famous temple of Karnak, and are frequently depicted in connection with "party scenes" that involve dancing or significant spiritual or magical rites such as the rite of passage into the afterlife. King Tut's mummy was covered with the flower.
There's the famous case of Azru. Azru was royalty, a noblewoman of Thebes, later called Luxor (a former capital of Egypt), and a chantress for Khonsu, the moon god. The main temple at Karnak is dedicated to him. Three times a day, Azru came bearing food as well as wine fortified with Nymphaea caerulea tincture; she fetched garments for the gods, the priests, and the Pharaoh; and she danced and sang for the royal court. She had wealth and her own home with servants, where she stayed until summoned to the temple. Her mummy was the first to undergo mass spectroscopy. There was no evidence of any narcotics or painkillers in her body, but, researchers did find phytosterols, bioflavonoids in her body, all found in Nymphaea caerulea.
A portrait of Tutankhamen shows his head emerging from a blue lily flower. In one variation of the ancient Egyptian story of Horus (the god of light) and Seth (the god of chaos), the lily flower appears as a symbol of the divine, all-seeing eye. Seth rips out Horus’ left eye and buries it in the sand, and it is transformed into a lily flower.
Ancient Egyptian women wore blue lily buds and flowers as fashionable head and hair adornments. Both the living and the dead were chronically festooned with garlands made from the plant. The garlands in the grave of Pharaoh Ramses II were made almost entirely of blue lily leaves. The flower was first cited in the Egyptian Book of the Dead as follows: “[It is] that lily flower which shines in the earth.”. Another incantation from the same text mentions the desire of Ani to “transform himself into the sacred blue water lily so that his body might have new birth and ascend daily into heaven”.
The mildly sedating effects of blue lotus make it a likely candidate (among several) for the lotus plant eaten by the mythical Lotophagi ("lotus-eaters") in Homer's Odyssey.
Its cousin, Nymphaea Ampla had a long history with Mayan cultures. During the Classic Mayan period, was associated with fertility and presumably used by a priestly caste to induce shamanic ecstasies and hallucinations. The Dresden Codex features the Waterlily Jaguar, god of the Mayan netherworld, frequently associated with libations, drinking vessels and hallucinogenic enemas. It is also used in perfumes, aroma-therapy, skin and hair care,
