I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'passing water' is the definition.
'urination' can be an answer for 'water' (thesaurus). I'm not certain of the 'passing' bit.

'geller to land' is the wordplay.
'geller' becomes 'uri' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'to land' becomes 'nation' (synonyms).
'uri'+'nation'='URINATION'
