Red Lily: properties, benefits and uses (Australian Flower Essence and Remedy)


Red lily is an Australian flower remedy made from Nelumbo nucifera. Useful for promoting concentration and concreteness, it also stimulates spiritual involvement. Let’s break it down better.


Description of the plant

Nelumbo nucifera – known as ‘lotus flower’, Red Lily is the same flower as the sacred lotus of the Buddhist tradition. The red lily is a perennial aquatic plant that arises from an underwater rhizome.

It grows in the temporary swamps of the floodplains (invaded by a river), in the Top End area and in the billabong (abandoned river meander, whose waters are stagnant): from the murky waters of the swamps the pure flower emerges, symbol of the raising of spiritual consciousness .  

The large round leaves stand erect above the water forming a cup, and the large, fragrant flowers have deep pink petals and a yellow center. They can reach a diameter of 25 cm and are supported by thorny stems from 50 to 150 cm long. Finally, the seeds are very long-lived and can germinate after 200 years.


Property of Red Lily

  • It helps concreteness, concentration and to learn to live the present, favoring practical sense, action, attention and concentration. Supportive for those who often have their heads in the clouds, daydream and have no interest in events in the present, tending to fantasize excessively.
  • Promotes concentration to start manual work that implies practicality
  • Stimulates spiritual involvement, balancing the spiritual and material planes, rebalancing the harmony with the earthly plan and promoting rootedness in spiritual practices

Red Lily is contained in the Environment Purity, SpiritualityTravel Compounds. In the LOVE SYSTEM line it is in Travel spray body and environment, Ambiente Purity spray body and environment, Travel cream.


Preparation and use

In a 30 ml bottle, combine ¾ of natural water and ¼ of brandy to preserve the product; add 7 drops for each chosen flower. 7 drops of this personal blend are taken under the tongue, morning and evening, upon awakening and before bed.

The drops can also be applied locally as well, combined with neutral cream as a carrier, in the bath water or vaporized in the environment to create a harmonious place. They can also be prepared without brandy, making sure that they do not degrade (if necessary, the preparation is repeated). They can be diluted in a little water or herbal tea, even for children.

Sundew allows balance, attention to detail and grounding in daily activities, either after taking anesthetics, drugs, alcohol or after trauma; Red Lily, on the other hand, promotes grounding and balance during spiritual practice. Their association is particularly effective.

Combined with Fringed Violet it is useful for eliminating the negative effects of plane vibrations during long journeys. The two essences are already present in the Travel compound.
