Matariki

While doing this project I learnt more about matariki. The star Matariki is the mother, surrounded by her six daughters, Tupu-ā-nuku, Tupu-ā-rangi, Waipuna Rangi, Waitī and Waitā, and Ururangi.


Matariki - The eyes of god
Tupu-ā-rangi - Food from the sky
Waipunarangi -  Star that is associated with rain
Waitī - Water, lakes, rivers,
Tupu-ā-nuku - Food from the ground
Ururangi - Nature of wind
Waitā - Food from the sea
