Blue Lotus Ceremony
The sacred blue lotus (Nymphaea caerulea), revered by ancient Egyptians as a divine flower of transformation and spiritual awakening, emerges from depths of muddy waters to open its luminescent blue petals in the light - a powerful metaphor for the journey of self healing and consciousness expansion. This lotus was so central to Egyptian spirituality that it appears abundantly in temple art and hieroglyphics, often depicted as an offering to the divine spirits.
Physically, the flower contains gentle compounds that have been traditionally worked with to relax the nervous system and create a subtle euphoric effect.
In our blue lotus ceremony, we work with this sacred plant medicine in various traditional forms including tea infusion, oils, and tinctures. The experience unfolds through a series of rituals designed to help participants commune with the spirit of Blue Lotus and the intention to come to ceremony with. The journey may include tea meditation, gentle breathwork practices, sound transmissions, ceremonial anointing, and much more.
As we engage with this ancient flower that transforms mud into beauty, we create space to release what no longer serves us and open to remembrance of who we truly are.
The journey will be led by Death Doula, Grief Guide, Ceremonialist, and the founder of Leaves With You, Shaina Garfield.
