Butterfly Pea Flowers, also known as Blue Pea, Asian Pigeonwings, or Clitoria ternatea, are vivid blue blossoms harvested from a climbing vine native to Southeast Asia. Traditionally used in Thai and Ayurvedic medicine, these delicate flowers are prized for their striking colour and subtle, earthy flavour.

Commonly brewed as an herbal tea, butterfly pea flower is pH-sensitive and will change color depending on what it’s combined with, shifting from deep blue to purple with lemon juice, or bright pink with hibiscus. It is used to colour cocktails, lattes, syrups, and desserts, making it a favourite for both culinary and magical applications.

Butterfly pea flower has been used traditionally to enhance memory and reduce stress. Rich in antioxidants known as anthocyanins, it may support healthy skin, hair, and eyesight. It is also revered for its ability to calm the nervous system and enhance mood.

Magically, butterfly pea flowers are used to promote inner vision and spiritual clarity. They are ideal for dreamwork, divination, and psychic rituals. Add the petals to moon water or bath blends to heighten intuition, or place them under your pillow to invite lucid dreams. Use in beauty spells to enhance self-love and confidence, or brew into tea before meditation or scrying.
