The oceans, origin of life, fertile womb of the Earth, deep and full of mysteries. For many tribes big snakes live in the depths of the oceans and their movements are those that move the water, generating waves and produce calamities like tsunamis. Snakes are not always present physically but as beings or gods that are outside our field of perception. They are always, they are the source and strength containing the balance and creates chaos.
