Syncro-Mystic Hydro-Glyphic Aqua-Glossolalia with Water Researcher Veda Austin
Veda Austin joins Vibe Rant to continue the conversation we began with her at the start of 2023, exploring her fascinating fluency of frequency frozen in fluids. Our hydromancer heroine and esoteraquatic arcanist will have images to share to demonstrate how water can communicate via artistic geometry and patterns.

Core themes
Water Responds Like a Relationship
Veda Austin explained that she photographed water frozen at the stage of creation, a short method she said anyone could use, and that her collection neared 40,000 photos. She argued that water with natural salts and minerals gave better communication than distilled water, which she said felt like being observed rather than interacted with. She described the work as a conversation, not an experiment, and said water responded rather than reacted. Chance said there was no separation between the water in people, the sky and the ocean, and Veda added that humans were water, salt, minerals and consciousness.
Words, Saliva, and Hydroglyphs
Veda claimed that saliva held the last word a person spoke, and described saying the number eight before spitting into a dish. She said a blind survey of 298 people, which Dr. Gerald Pollack had suggested, found that 85 percent recognized what influenced her images. She introduced hydroglyphs, which she called a three dimensional emotional language, and said she counted a glyph only after about fifty repeats. Chance related her light and intention theme to his tuning work, saying wherever attention was placed worked like a flashlight that chased away dissonance.
Melting Stuck Emotions Into Flow
Veda described a guided exercise from her former wellness center in which clients imagined a painful area as ice and warmed it until it melted, and she said clients afterward reported releasing a surprising amount of water. Chance said a need for the restroom often followed the hardest part of a tuning session. Veda argued that people were designed to melt rather than hold trauma, that the body did the healing, and that a change of perception could change a life. She also showed tap water changing structure after being held lovingly or played in a singing bowl.
Eggs, Spinal Fluid, and Healing by Proximity
Veda reported that free range egg albumin froze into six patterns while caged hen eggs formed only two, and that caged eggs placed around a free range egg moved toward its pattern overnight. She said tap water left beside spring water improved as well, and argued that water's purpose was to improve things and share information. She relayed Dr. Gerald Pollack's remarks on exclusion zone water after the heart stops, and a Harvard doctor's view, as she recalled it, that spinal fluid was a portal to cosmic consciousness. She also described a colleague named John whose egg albumin froze into his signature creation glyph.
Ancient Waters, Myth, and Hidden Technology
Chance, speaking as a mythology and language researcher, said flood arks appeared in traditions worldwide and read the boat as a symbol of combined generative powers. Veda told of a Bosnian pyramid project including a heart stone whose pattern vanished, and she described a salt water lightning pyramid idea from a book she never published. She said a Russian psychiatrist photographed patients' retinas during hallucinations, and that the Maori word for spirit meant two waters. One of the hosts later wondered aloud whether astrology was ice.
Quotes
“I became an uncle today. So congratulations to my family are in order. My sister did a great job delivering a little perfect baby boy and I'm super excited about that.”
“We're water, salt, minerals and consciousness. And even salt is amazing because salt essentially is a crystal and it's in a cubic form. But it's a shape shifter like water. When you put salt into water, it sort of disappears, but it makes water a liquid crystal.”
“When you start to want to see what water is going to communicate to you, then actually it's very much more like working with someone rather than something.”
“When I do tunings for people balancing their energy field using sound, it's not really the sound that is doing the job. What brings about the most healing capacity of the whole process is when something they've been in the dark about themselves, a belief or a feeling they've been rejecting, is brought to their attention.”
“The word is really important because a spoken word carries light and energy. And there is great power in the words that we say and that we speak.”
“That to me was the biggest value of beginning to speak a blessing over my meals, was that eventually, if I said the words enough times, I started to feel the feeling before it was even time to say the words.”
“Water doesn't read words, but it absorbs the energy of words and freezes into the energy of a word.”
“I've seen the same thing when tap water sat next to spring water and was left overnight. Not only does the tap water improve structurally, but so does the spring water. It's as if water's actual purpose is to improve things and to share information.”
“As a mythology and religion and language researcher, what has been most fascinating to me is how seemingly everywhere in the world that you look, in every tradition that you turn the rock over, underneath it is the mythos of the ark, and how the belief was that after you reach the end of a large cycle of time, everything goes back under water.”
“No medicine, no pill, no nothing that we actually take inside of us is healing us, nothing. It's our body that's healing us.”
“When I do tuning, I look at it, not like I'm doing something to heal them, but more like with massage, you can't reach your own back. So I'm helping them see the parts of their energy field that they are unable to see.”
“Every time we even look in these petri dishes, we're seeing water in many ways as it sees us. You know, like these little mini worlds in there. It's so simple and it's a lovely kind of meditative thing for people to do as well.”
“People talk about the ice caps melting and all of that. But actually, this is the stage of creation, the melting and the freezing. It's like where anything can happen.”
