There are springs in the Alps where since the Celts and Romans are known.
Salt water comes directly from the mountain. Some of it smells like rotten eggs. Some have a temperature of 40 degrees.
A famous salt spring is in the south of France near the Pyrenees, near the Spanish border.
Salt does not necessarily mean sea.

First and foremost it depends on where you are.
Example:
If I find a ladder in a Bible, you can see a way to God from it.
But if I see this ladder in a battle chronicle, it is most likely to be a storm ladder with which one can overcome walls.
Sometimes it is a medical device and sometimes one for torture.
A farmer would say you need it to harvest apples and pears.
In the end it is just a ladder. The book makes it what it represents and not the other way around.
The way I see it, you take details from the book of Genesis or Old Testament.
But since I can hardly find any religious symbol in the VM, I would not look for similar ones in a Bible or similar.
Science is science, and religion is religion. The VM author seems to keep this well.
Therefore it is almost impossible that I would follow your theory, even if it is well explained.
I'm sorry.

A.E. Waite, The Pictoral Key to the Tarot Wrote:The gallows from which he is suspended forms a Tau cross — while the figure—from the position of the legs—forms a fylfot cross. There is a nimbus about the head of the seeming martyr. It should be noted that the tree of sacrifice is living wood, with leaves thereon; that the face expresses deep entrancement, not suffering; that the figure, as a whole, suggests life in suspension, but life and not death. [...] It has been called falsely a card of martyrdom, a card of prudence, a card of the Great Work, a card of duty [...] I will say very simply on my own part that it expresses the relation, in one of its aspects, between the Divine and the Universe.
