Blue lotus flower is formally known as Nymphaea caerulea. It’s a tropical water lily that features beautiful light blue, star-shaped flowers. You may also hear it referred to as Egyptian lotus, sacred blue lily, or blue water lily.
This flower primarily grows in Egypt and certain parts of Asia, where it was considered to be a sacred symbol of creation and rebirth. Its use can be dated all the way back to ancient Egypt, when it was used as a traditional medicine to treat conditions such as insomnia and anxiety.
Due to its psychoactive properties, blue lotus flower is categorized as an entheogenic drug—meaning it’s believed to be able to alter one’s state of mind. It contains compounds that can instill a sense of happiness and calmness.
Blue lotus flower is commonly found in teas, infused wines and drinks, or even in products to smoke. It’s currently not approved for internal consumption in the United States, however it is legally allowed to be cultivated, sold, and purchased. The extract from the flower’s petals, seeds, and stamens can also be applied topically to the skin.
