Okay...I’m trying blue lotus tea. About 5 grams, 10 oz of boiling water and soaked for somewhere between 7-10 minutes.
I bought it as a way to experiment with depression and anxiety relief, as well as a possible way to connect with Anubis.
I plan on making an infusion with wine, after seeing the different effects of blue, white and red lotus.
Contemplating making an infusion in oil, as well.
So far, the taste is pleasantly floral, somewhat green and something indefianably itself.
If I had a little more than this sampler packet I might try smoking it, but I’m fine with the tea right now.
Edit: did nothing much. I might possibly be one of those people who just don’t have the luck of feeling anything when this is used
Making another brew, ground this one up and using a cheesecloth bag and properly timing my steeping.

Well...my second order of blue lotus came in. I didn’t, as recommended, grind it, rather I crunches them up in my hand and packed the pieces (petal and stamens) into the pre-rolled paper. Took a surprisingly small amount to fil it.
Juuust smoked half of it (doesn’t want to stay lit and it’s COLD out) so now I’m waiting for 20-30mins...focusing on relaxing with low light.
Observed the...mouthfeel? Was pleasant, as was the scent. Might’ve been a mildly numbing sensation in the mouth/lips when smoking, especially when I think I hit some inner parts of the flower.
Starting to note some head-floaty sensation. I did have a concussion last week and still have symptoms but this is a little different. Also noting that mildly not-quite-numb sensation in the throat. Just a little concerning but only in the way of “keep an eye on that just in case.”
Given that I can see why the Egyptians consumed it with alcohol: might be the best way. I have some mead I’ve been saving for this.
Update: definitely felt and feel a “glow” in my brow chakra and at the top of my head, more relaxed in general. Deep breathing for meditation seems to be enhancing this. Will blend with mugwort next time.

... I’m catching up on Outlander Season 2 episode 1 and
(SPOILERS for all those who haven’t seen it yet!)
I really felt her pain when she asked about the battle. The awful knowledge that you know that the people you were with and had been dead for so long, but feeling so poignantly that you had to know what had happened to them, and feeling a profound grief upon discovering that their lives had been far shorter than you’d wanted.
My second thought was this: how is it anywhere near normal to be able to relate to the grief of a time-traveler?

I watched this video earlier today and found it an interesting perspective. Freyia Norling’s passion for her subject is resonant.

Celebrating Deipnon aka Feast of Hecate
For a very long time, at different times in my life, I’ve felt the draw and connection to Hecate. After accepting the Call many years later, and some years after that, I finally find myself called to work more closely with Her.
Which has led me on a deep dive through the Internet for information, meditation and I have some thoughts about this upcoming weekend (currently 11/13/2020).
This is my thoughts on Deipnon.
November the 16th is the supposed day the Feast of Hecate takes place. According to a similarly curious blogger, aligning with my suspicions, it appears to be a modern holiday.
Deipnon itself is an older celebration falling on the first New Moon (dark moon) of the month of November, observed, according to several articles I’ve read in the past several days, by bringing offerings of food, dirt and rubbish from home, etc. to The Crossroads and leaving it - for wild dogs and the poor.
I think it is important to create our own holidays and that there is nothing wrong in doing so. But, as a daughter of Hecate, I believe we should look at whatever historical significance we find inspiration from and contemplate the ways that can fit in our modern society.
Deipnon could be celebrated personally by leaving offerings of food at a cemetery without looking back, after a Ritual honoring Her, after taking a bath, after cleaning your house.
Leaving offerings for the Gods is absolutely something that can be done if one feels so moved. I do so as well.
This is a Sugarcream-cheese pie drenched in black raspberries with local holiday leaves for decoration - and as a signifier that it isn’t meant for human consumption, later left at a local liminal space in thanks to Hecate for a new wand.
But Deipnon is new to me. And I think taking into consideration that Hecate is a protector of children, the downtrodden, the marginalized, the poor and “the mad,” holding dogs and cats, snakes as sacred: I believe that we as pagans can do so much more in Her name.
Clean your home. Cleanse yourself. Cook an small offering for the dead...and a larger one for the living. Take canned food you haven’t touched for months that hasn’t expired yet and that meal to local food banks and yes, even churches that offer weekly meals for those in need. They don’t need to know why. If you can find non-religious organizations that do that, then go there if you’re more comfortable. Donate your time or money to animal shelters, dog rescue, reptile rescue (there are never enough), or call and ask what they need and donate supplies.
I think, too, about the emphatic “don’t look back” I keep seeing. I think, if the offering is meant for Hecate, but (as seen in a passing article citing an “ancient writing”) “it more often gets eaten by dogs or the poor” then it is meant for them.
Not looking back means your offering is given freely, with the respect and dignity given to the person who might be taking it. So many times, society judges those of us in need, or uses their charity more to glorify themselves than to support those they’re helping. Be mindful.
I read somewhere another comment, the only one I found, that if you do look back after leaving an offering, then ghosts will drive you mad.
As both ghosts and madness were attributed to being controlled by Hecate, I could see Her afflicting someone offering in bad faith (without true charity) with such.
So, in honor of Hecate, I believe that giving back to those in need in our community should be added into our observance of Deipnon/Hecate’s Feast.
The article below is not mine, but confirms the suspicions I had that this is a modern celebration. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.patheos.com/blogs/hearthwitchdownunder/2016/11/tracing-hekates-november-festivals.html/amp

Tulsi tea: I will post more on this topic later, but in the past 48 hours I have drank 3 cups of strongly brewed Tulsi tea. Very recently I was working and find myself thinking a lot on past experiences from high school. Particularly, Friends that I have lost contact with, and after high school, in my early college years and later, when I was Confronting the boy who abuse me in high school. I thought about him and how I stayed friends initially after breaking up with him in high school, it took me maybe 3 to 5 years later to realize how unhealthy that was. I stayed friends because he was friends with many of my own, and I was trying to soften the blow of the break up. I bottled everything and completely ignored what happened, I also wasn’t in any romantic relationships until a few years after him. So on New Year’s Day, wanting to make a new start for myself, I confronted him. His girlfriend, who I had become friends with, begged me to stay friends with her after severing ties with him. It broke my heart to tell her no but I had to. He had “Rescued“ her from an incredibly abusive and controlling family home when he met her going to college. I hope she is well. I hope she was able to grow beyond him. And if they are still together, I hope he grew to be worthy of her. I hope that if he has any progeny, but they are all daughters. What he did to me was selfish, drenched in the toxicity of are patriarchal society and I don’t know if I will ever forgive him for that. He hurt me in ways that I don’t think he will ever truly comprehend. That is not power. Hurting someone to change them. Power is opening yourself to healing after being hurt. Power is in finding strength in caring, kindness, love of all kinds.
This got very rant-y. Supposed to say, I had read that Tulsi tea is prone to promoting catharsis in people. 48 hours after drinking three very strong cups of Tulsi tea, I called my guardian for the first time in a long time and I think she answered, called my Reiki guide and with their help, worked my first self healing session in perhaps a year. And after, performed an LBRP (Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram) and saw one of my Patron Deities, who held out their hand and said “walk with me.”
