WATER – Its colour is Blue (Direction South)
Water is the element of the South and through meeting water we meet the great nurturer that it is our mother. For nine months we swam in the seas of our mother’s womb, being protected we grew within this vital life fluid. Water is the creator of our emotions enabling us to experience the world as sensations and feelings.
Water teaches us to watch the world with non-‐attachment; by just letting thoughts drift by allows us to come to the understanding of the nature of the world. Our mind is the vast ocean and our thoughts are what swim within it. If we remember to focus on the ocean and just watch our thoughts without creating any attachment to them we become fluid and free. This is the element that reminds us we are made up from water; our entire bodies are fluid and moving just like our thoughts and the sensations within us. When we work with these qualities we come to the understanding that we need to be fluid and flowing within the mind.
When we free the mind from the constraints of thought we learn that we become clear. By having no attachment to our thoughts allows us to experience the clear mind the Witches talk about.
It is only by surrendering to the depths of the vast ocean that we come to experience life, allowing us to be reborn once again within a second birth, this time not from our maternal mothers, but from the eternal mother.
The water element resides in the kidney organs and from time to time these can become weakened with our excessive lifestyles, when you feel a weakness in this area of your body imagine breathing in pure blue light into your kidney organs. Let it wash into them restoring them with refeshing waters, restoring and healing you from deep within.
