In scripture, A WELL can also be a metaphor for the soul, which contains the depths and hidden riches of a person. 

In Jungian psychology, water is an image of the hidden world w/in a person, containing the invisible life, wrecks, and treasures to be found (RHB, 41). 

Teresa of Avila wrote about water being the deep place w/in a person where God’s presence also dwells and interacts with us. 

Jesus referred to himself as “living water” (John 7:38), that springs from w/in us.
