Well blue lotus and sacred lotus, or Nelumbo Nucifera is very popular among the Ancient Egyptians, Nubians, Abyssinians, and a bunch of other historical African Civilizations of the ancient world. To the Egyptians this plant represented the sun and rebirth. It was presented at parties, and took on a sacred significance at death. There is little wonder that it became the floral symbol of Upper Egypt, and a flower enjoyed by all people throughout Egyptian history.
Today it has become very popular in modern culture as having mystical powers creating moderate euphoric feelings of love and happiness. The flowers of the blue lily have been found to contain apor-phine, a substance that is closely related to the opiate apomorphine. Many people like to mix the sacred blue lotus with their wine much like the Egyptians. Other blue lotus enthusiasts feel that consuming the sacred flower will give you that much more of euphoria.
