Baptims is a metaphor for the setting and rising sun. The sun seems to sink into the water on the western horizon at sunset and rise from the water on the eastern horizon at sunrise. The Sun is represented by the Jesus character the son (Sun) of God.
Matthew 3:16-17 King James Version (KJV)
16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:
17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased
