      Pouring water from one container to another is an attribute of Temperance, a major arcana tarot card. Edit: And, of course, the Tarot depiction comes from the virtue itself) The card represents balance first and foremost, so Anakin being supposed to bring balance to the force immediately springs to mind.

      I’m sure that if I wasn’t as tired as I am right now, I could come up with a plausible theory for him standing in the sea. Beach/sand connection maybe? I’ll leave that to someone else.

      But I do believe you can eke out some sense out of this picture if you really try.

        I think the sea connection is not the sand, but the fact that it is not drinkable. So he’s here, standing in a literal sea of water he shouldn’t drink, measuring out and sorting the pure filtered water he should drink. And why the careless attitude you may ask? Because it allows a bit of seawater in and it doesn’t kill you too have a bit of the profane world in your filtered experience. Temperantia in temperantia.

      Yes it does. He is clearly trying to filter the saltwater with the Brita filter to try to make it potable so he can drink it for later.
