Summary

Editors' introduction

Dark Sky Eel – pilgrim serpent and weaver of connectedness.

Where thou go, we will follow.

Within the sacred space thus created, and as a ‘drawing down’ of and reflection on the essence of water, individual human experiences of spirit and divinity in watery environments are explored. Here are stories of connection, merging between the self and watery realms. Contributors share deeply significant encounters that inspire their spiritual practices and beliefs, renew their commitment to the environment and nourish an appreciation of who we are as both human and water. Transformative experiences inform and inspire contributors as they surf, dance, swim and sail their homage to the spirit of water.
