🌌✨ ⭐Matariki New Year
🌌✨ ⭐ Calling all NZ Sisters - Just after the winter solstice, you will start to see the Matariki stars rising in Aotearoa. This star(ts) in the North in a few weeks.
When the big sister stars of Matariki rise up from under the horizon, to sparkle in our night skies (from the Cancer New Moon), we’re reminded of the 4 Ws.
💫Whānui (families) as nurtured through the wāhine bonds 💫Whakapapa (heritage)💫 Wāhine manawa (heartful women) and 💫 Wairuatanga - the spiritual flow of new beginnings
⭐ 💫 🌌 The Nine Sisters of Matariki, known worldwide as the Pleiades. This star cluster is known by Māori as Matariki. Different tribes have different stories, depending on when the Matariki stars are seen. But the Cancer New Moon is accepted as New Zealand's national Matariki holiday.
🌌✨ ⭐Matariki is both the name of the main star (Alcyone) but she's the mother of a sisterhood. Yes, nine dazzling whetū (stars), each representing a realm of nurturing and wellbeing—honouring the ancestors, earth, sea, sky, food, healing, and spiritual connection.
♀️✨ Did you know these are not just stars? They are atua wāhine, ancestral energies. They embody whānui (families), whakapapa (genealogy), mana wāhine (feminine power), and wairua (spirit). So naturally, Sisters Collective honours this celestial Mauri through our Hei Tiki jewellery—koha - gifts that carry the power of the atua, and our ancestors 👪🏾
