Water - primal matter, the womb of life
It is written in the Book of Genesis, ‘In the beginning when God created the heavens and the earth, the earth was a formless void... and a wind from God swept over the face of the waters.’ Why ‘over the waters’? Because water represents the original cosmic matter into which the spirit of God, the primordial fire, entered in order to fertilize it. Contrary to popular belief, earth is not the element that best expresses and manifests the properties and qualities of matter: it is water, whose qualities are receptivity, adaptability and pliancy. Water therefore is the symbol of the primal matter that received the fertilizing seeds of the spirit. It is the womb of life. Life is born of water thanks to the principle of fire, which breathed movement into this matter. Without fire to infuse it with life, water, matter, possesses no life of its own.
