Water Consciousness

oceanwater.jpgI've been thinking a lot about the power of water to resonate with the subtle vibrations of the universe. Masaru Emoto developed a technique for photographing water crystals and studied the effects of subtle energy on water. Researchers studied the water by speaking to the water and exposing the water to written messages and then freezing the water and photographing the crystals or shapes that developed.  

One discovery of his was that water that was polluted and most urban tap water around the world would not create any crystals. However more natural water, from less polluted water sources would create beautiful crystals when exposed to positive words such as "thank you" and "happiness", however the most beautiful crystals of all were created with the words "gratitude" and "love" together.

This illustrates the importance of thinking and feeling positive sentiments and intentions, for as humans we are water-beings. Babies are the highest percentage of water, showing our primal water connection, as they float in the waters of the womb. During pregnancy, parents can speak to the baby in the womb, knowing that the subtle vibrations from the emotion and meaning behind the words, regardless of what language it is, will positively affect the development and bonding of their baby.

For more information about water crystals: http://www.hado.com.au/crystals.htm

"At human conception, a fertilized egg is 96 percent water. At birth, a baby is 80 percent water. As the child matures, the percentage drops, and it stabilizes at about 70 percent when the individual reaces adulthood. In other words, we live our lives mostly as water. The essence of the human being is water.

We can also say that our lives begin with water and end with water. A fetus developing in a mother's womb echoes our own evolutionary process - from our origins in the sea to the present human form. The amniotic fluid has similar components to sea water.  The fetus awaits its time to be born in the mother's sea, breathing through the umbilical cord and placenta."
