Sacred Blue Lotus
Water lily of the Sun
“O Isis, giver of life, who dwells in the Pure Island, take to yourself the myrrh which comes from Punt, the lotus-fragrance which issues from your body, that your heart may be glad through it, and that your heart may rejoice every day.”
A hymn to Isis at Her temple in Philae
IGNITES HIGHER SPIRITUAL CONSCIOUSNESS – EMPOWEREMENT – DIVINE WISDOM – DIVINE INSPIRATION – EXPERIENCE ONENESS WITH THE CREATOR – RELEASE OF CREATIVE POWERS
Infused with symbolic and spiritual significance, the lotus represents spiritual illumination and regeneration, beauty and love, purification and rebirth, the unification of polarities and the embodiment of the four elements.
Regarded as royal and sacred in ancient Egypt, Blue Lotus was a sacrament gifted by the gods and to the gods offered as we can see in rituals often dipicted in the temples.
Symbol of renewal of life, it assists the individual, and humanity as a whole, in the process of spiritual transformation. The divinity of its scent unseals psychic abilities and liberates the mind for the achievement of an altered state of consciousness. The ecstatic harmonisation that it conveys can generate an expansion of our magnetic field. Activated by the Lotus Flower, the Serpent Power (creative energy) rises within the spine and, culminating in a gentle climax at the crown of your head, it increases the potential for receptivity and creativity, attuning to divine wisdom and the realms of magic.
As the lotus flower goes through a constant process of purifying itself to maintain its purity, we too will remove our ‘impurities’ in order to achieve spiritual purification. This process ‘sieves’ the uneeded, so that the pure essence remains, is renewed or is created.
Call on Sacred Lotus when you feel ‘stuck in the mud’, marinating in the cauldron of your thoughts, confusion, struggles, stagnating in a situation or in a stage in life with the inability to move forward. Sacred Lotus comes forth with its visionary wisdom, ‘purifies’ you and lifts you up above the mud, unfolding a blossom of possibilities that reveals the petals of your inner lotus to the light of the sun.
About Sacred Blue Lotus
Blue Lotus (Nymphaea Caerulea), a Water Lilly that grew on the banks of the Nile, was sacred and held in deep reverence by the ancient Egyptians for its medicinal and spiritual qualities. Blue Lotus was an initiatory sacrament invoked and applied, for over 3000 years, in ceremonial and temple rituals for the elevation of spirit, the attainment of higher states of consciousness and connection with the Divine.
