I shared a picture of my Dahlia that bloomed in the forum a couple of weeks ago. Closer to the start of my whirlwind that I am wading through. (Every day something new!). So this morning when my Hibiscus bloomed, I decided that I am going to look up some correspondences for them. I currently have the Dahlia drying the rest of the way on my altar. **Dahlia** ![Dahlia Magic](https://spells8s3.b-cdn.net/original/2X/c/c28f3d82afd1e2885b7eca8e6b75bd072193e016.jpeg) Image from: [Pinterest](https://www.pinterest.com/pin/295267319301493498/) **Hibiscus** This flower is found in Scott Cunningham’s Encyclopedia of Magical Herbs on page 137. It’s associated with the Water Element, Planet Venus, & used in magic for Lust, Love, & Divination. Other names for this flower are Kharkady, Graxa, Gumamela, Shoeflower, Tulipan **Hibiscus is the ultimate flower of passion. Its other magickal properties include love, divination, freedom, and many more. The red flowers are brewed into a strong red tea that is drunk for its lust-inducing powers. This drink is forbidden to women in Egypt for this very reason. It’s been used medicinally to lower blood pressure and boost liver health, as well as being a common ceremonial tea in many cultures.** [Magical Properties of Hibiscus: Wicca Now](https://wiccanow.com/magickal-properties-of-hibiscus/) (I am not a medical professional, please don’t use Hibiscus or the Dahlia medicinally unless you have consulted with a medical professional) I’m not sure when I will use them, but I plan to once things for me are on a more even keel. ![Resized_20210817_063241](https://spells8s3.b-cdn.net/original/2X/3/3c151bd49d358aaa279d345b98a62424c86512a6.jpeg) My Hibiscus [My Dahlia is Part of this Thread](https://forum.spells8.com/t/funny-fantastic-and-favorite-flowers/10859/32) ![20210727_090835](https://spells8s3.b-cdn.net/original/2X/e/eed7d4ea5c54b9b6890f8bff2c8f0debe2a4b7ba.jpeg) ---

Wow, look at that beautiful bloom! 🌺 ❤ I love hibiscus tea- it’s one of my favorite summer tea blends as it really is cooling. I think it would make for a great [Sun Tea](https://forum.spells8.com/t/sun-tea-recipes/12871) too! 🍹 Thanks for sharing your flower wisdom and also for the lovely pictures @Susurrus! 🥰 ---
