“I am the eye of god, resting in its blue orb. Golden eyelids encircle me. Eyelashes grow like stalks of dark truth. I see what I never dared beyond the bucket banging the well, beyond the mountains pushing up dirt. Light shimmers in every blade of grass, gods dance in every leaf, blue and gold fires leap from my pores. I shine in and out life.”

MEDICINE: Smoke
Just as when we burn incense in our spaces to create sacred space - so too does the smoke offer our bodies a clearing + opening of sacredness within us.
It clears our portals, brings ease to the nervous system, can be a preparedness for meditation + ceremony, & a sensual awakening to the body. Lotus brings a beautiful euphoric medicine, clearing the chatter in the mind + third eye, allowing us to see beyond the veils + see the beauty in our lives and all around us.
Tune in to how smoking Lotus feels to you - there is such depth and wisdom to be experienced in this medicine. I can’t wait to hear all that comes through uniquely for you.
-
work with the smoke in intentional ways that call to you.
Some ideas:-before/with morning meditation.
-in the evenings at sunset.
-before sleep to dream with.
-to create/make art.
-in the sun, out in nature.
SMOKE CLEANSING
- invite in the smoke cleansing ritual this month. breathing in the smoke of lotus, and blowing it over your body + aura to clear and bless yourself. See how it feels for you. -
I am not the best free-hand roller of joints - so I use a little rolling machine!
I use the RAW Hemp plastic roller - you can find at your local smoke shop or online.
+ organic hemp rolling papers.
HOW TO:lovingly break down lotus petals into little pieces.
I like to do this with my hands as it feels more intimate and full of prayer. I like the time it takes so that I can drop in, offer my gratitude and prayers.
I crush up the petals and the yellow tentacles and then offer the core center to the earth or my altar (if you’re using a whole flower).from there you can look up online with visuals how to use the roller machine if you’re using that - if not, you probably know how to roll a joint :)
OTHER HERBS TO SMOKE WITH LOTUS
I love to blend Lotus with:
-Rose
-Damiana
-Lavender
HOME EXPLORATIONS + INVITATIONS
AN EXPLORATION + STUDY INTO THE 3RD EYE: Symbolism + inspiration.
INVITATIONS: Pay attention to when you get the flash illumination of your intuition - notice when you follow it and when you don’t. Write them down in your journal or in your phone and keep track of them this month. See what is revealed and what you learn.
Play with divination + oracle + symbolism.
Pay attention to signs + symbols that show up in your field.
Work with Lotus in the form of divination - asking Lotus for messages through tarot or oracle.
Sacred Smoke (Revisit the Audio from Month 1: Whether burning herbs for incense or smoking them - it is a sacred + ancient medicine to work with. Sacred Smoke feeds the sacred, feeds the spirits, feeds that which is unseen but felt. It is a vehicle + offering for prayer - whether you're clearing something, calling something in, or simply offering gratitude to your spirit guides, sacred smoke amplifies your intentions.
EGYPTIAN NETERU STUDY: The Quintessence Elixir of Spirits in relation to Nefertum in all of the families (video soon).
“The eye retains this magic aura - shining, sparkling, withering, radiating.
The eye receives and emits light, looks out and looks in, is a window on the soul and on the world, revealing and perceiving, seeing through and true.”
