Meet the Egyptian Blue Lotus An Ancient Bloom with Modern Appeal

Amidst a sea of constant notifications, clatter, and rush, more people are turning to plants with a history, botanicals that are not necessarily tasty or scented, but which do something. One flower has quietly found its way into herbalists' hands, dreamers' hands, and seekers' hands: Egyptian Blue Lotus.

Also known by its botanical name, Nymphaea Caerulea, this sacred water lily is not all looks. It's surrounded by centuries of intrigue, ceremony, and cultural depth. From the banks of the Nile to the cups of modern herbalists, Blue Lotus has been the emblem of serenity, spiritual connection, and refined euphoria.

So what is it, and why are so many of us attracted to it now? Let's get to the magic of this mythical flower.

What is Egyptian Blue Lotus All About?

Egyptian Blue Lotus is a lovely waterflower that occurs naturally in the Nile River and parts of East Africa. It blossoms in stunning blue-violet hues and wilts with the setting of the sun, as if in synchrony with the motions of the sky. But its aesthetic appeal wasn't the cause of the reverence it's what it represented.

In Egypt, it was to be seen everywhere on temple walls, in tombs, on pottery, even in perfume jars buried in tombs along with pharaohs. It was most often associated with the sun god Ra and with the god Nefertem, both of whom were patrons of light, of new life, of equilibrium. Egyptians believed it was used to elevate the spirit and to open the heart, and it's likely that it was also used in so many religious rituals.

Why It Is Still Popular Today

Flash-forward to the present, and Egyptian Blue Lotus is found everywhere in solo rituals from tranquil tea ceremonies to new forms of flow states. People are drawn to it not just because of its history, but because of the impact it has on them.
