Venice

by Marko Pogačnik, Bojan Brecelj (Photographer)

Marko Pogacnik researched the inner meaning of patterns in Venice. His tools for this inner work—the science of intuition—included the classic four elements of earth, water, air and fire; the Chinese polarity of yin and yang; and the alchemical concept of creation as the wedding of feminine and masculine. In the process, Pogacnik found that nothing in Venice is happenstance, including its shape, which suggests a giant fish; its general layout, architecture, and location; the locations of palaces and places of worship; and even Venetian works of art. The hidden path is revealed when the author brings the results of his intuitive research together with rational modes of perception.

About the author

Marko graduated as sculptor on the Academy of Fine Arts in Ljubljana 1967. With his family he lives in Sempas, Slovenia.
Since 1979 he has been engaged in geomantic and Earth healing work. In the mid 80s he designed a method of Earth work similar to acupuncture, by using carved stone pillars positioned on acupuncture like points of the given landscape. He calls it lithopuncture.
From 2005 he dedicates much of his work creating Geopuncture Circles, a world wide lithopuncture project to enhance communication and healing with the Earth, that he builds together with his collaborators from given countries. In 2013 he started to teach GaiaTouch exercises, developed by him during the last decade.
