5-7 June 2026: The Old Mill House, th St Mary’s, Chalford
Both programmes run from Friday afternoon – Sunday lunchtime. And the only prerequisite is an interest in allowing water to reveal its essential nature!! Water presents us with some remarkable capacities, and they all seem perfectly tuned to the needs of living organisms. In particular, the beautiful way water forms itself in movement and in forming ice crystals seems to show not just a similarity to the way organisms form themselves but also a sensitivity and a capacity to reveal subtle forming principles. (see the work of Theodor and Wolfram Schwenk et al, Masaru Emoto, Andreas Schulz and Veda Austin). How can we begin to make
clear sense of these phenomena, such that we can work appropriately with water in our agriculture and horticulture as well as for our own consumption?
In this workshop we will start by observing water in flow and using dyes and markers reveal the forming which happens in the
movements. We can see some archetypal gestures and see how water plays with these gestures both in experiments and in a
naturally flowing stream. We will look at the phenomena which reveal water sensitivity and discuss what that can indicate; both for
the how, where and when water is sensitive, as well as for what it is sensitive to. This can give us a background from which to
consider the methods which have been or could be used for enhancing the role of water in living organisms.
It may be seen that good water quality is not the same for different situations and for different realms of life; – plant, animal and human.
