The Blue Lotus: A Narcotic Lily That Mesmerized Ancient Egypt


A water lily from the genus Nymphaea, this plant became known as the ‘Blue Lotus’, or the ‘Egyptian Lotus’. This aquatic plant is not just a thing of beauty, it has a secret too, and the ancient Egyptians were very aware of it. A symbol of life and immortality, the blue lotus was believed to provide a spiritual connection into the afterlife and offer communication with the divine, as was mentioned even in the famous ‘Egyptian Book of the Dead’.

Entheogens and the Psychoactive Healing Properties of the Blue Lotus Flower
The Nymphaea Caerulea was considered a symbol of life and immortality in ancient Egypt, which used its entheogenic qualities to communicate with the divine. Entheogens are mind-altering substances that alter perception, behavior, and cognition of an individual. They are used often by spiritual and religious groups across the world, across cultures, to connect with a higher divinity. For example, the hallucinogen ayahuasca is used by indigenous peoples of the Amazon, as well as the mestizo (mixed race) shamans and members of Brazilian churches.

What worked in the flower’s favor was the roots being able to flourish in nutrient-deficient mud that lacks oxygen. The blue flowering species is small and round, and floats on top of lakes or bodies of water. Its flower buds rise to the surface over a two-to-three-day period, then open at around 9:30am and close in the early afternoon at 3:00pm when they reach maturity.
