Tantric Dance The Blue Lotus
A dance of giving and receiving, where one is in charge and the other is blindfolded in the dance. The challenge is to stay very close to yourself, but at the same time to be connected to the other. An exercise in being open and grounded.
Also known as the sacred blue water lily was a very important flower in Egyptian mythology that has been used for thousands of years in traditional medicine and ceremonies in ancient Egypt. It was seen as a symbol of the sun and considered sacred and associated with the god Horus and the goddess Isis. This was because they saw the flower open every morning, causing a beautiful golden heart to appear between the blue leaves and spread a wonderfully sweet scent. This image resembled the air that greeted the sun in the early morning. In the afternoon, the flower closed again and then opened again the next morning.
The Egyptians believed that Blue Lotus has the power to open the mind and soul to higher states of consciousness and can be seen a lot in the walls of temples, tombs and pyramids.
