In ancient times, considerable note was made of understanding the four elements, for these were considered the building bricks of the Universe, and hence many believed that these were also part of the basic structure of themselves. This cache addresses the element of WATER.
WATER is emotion. It feels, it dreams, it nurtures the heart. It refreshes, it cools, it is wet, fluid, heavy and mysterious, taking the shape of whatever contains it. Water is the food of life, and essential for life, for all things arose from the sea. It quenches the thirst of the earth made barren by fire and air.

Water changes. It adapts. It is the jaded blue of depression, and the subtle, passive hue of contentment. It shapes our thoughts, yet thoughts can shape it. It is tossed and inspired by the winds of air, absorbed in the fullness of earth, yet in storm it threatens to drown the Spirit, the energy, the desire for life. For it spits in the face of fire. Only water can bring the sanctity of true love, the balance of harmony. It is deceptive, subtle and elusive. It has force and power, rhythm and cycle, charity and compassion. It is the hazy mirror of the subconscious instincts of our past, and our conscious needs for the future.

The recommended route to this cache is to park at the new Sooke River water disinfection plant and access the trail behind it (trail parallels Charters River) or access from the Galloping Goose trestle over the river.
