The Life-Giver, Healer, Traveler, Shape Shifter. The element of Water covers ¾ of the worlds surface in the form of oceans, rivers, lakes, ponds, streams etc. -It comes up from the ground, falls from the sky, and moves through the world with ease taking the path of least resistance. Water can extinguish fire, can wear away stone, flood earth, and travel on the winds. In the universe there are many places with water and no life, but nowhere is there life without water. Water makes the Earth a living planet; it is essential to life. You will hear or have heard many theories on how life got started here on Earth but all of those theories have one thing in common - Water! The characteristics of water, such as its ability to
sustain life and exist in various forms, make it a unique element that will never cease to amaze you both scientifically and spiritually. One characteristic that both of these groups have a common interest in is waters ability to be easily contaminated and take on the properties of things it comes in contact with. I can't speak on how this effects the scientific world so much but spiritually its effects ripple.
