SUMMARY:Matariki 2019
DESCRIPTION:Matariki is the Māori name for a cluster of stars which is visible in our night sky at a specific time of the year. In 2019\, from 25 to 28 June\, Matariki will re-appear in the dawn sky – signalling the start of the Māori New Year. \nIt is a time to celebrate new life\, to remember those who’ve passed and to plan for the future. And it’s a time to spend with whānau and friends – to enjoy kai (food)\, waiata (song)\, tākaro (games) and haka. \nOur tūpuna (ancestors) would look to Matariki for help with their harvesting. When Matariki disappeared in April/May\, it was time to preserve crops for the winter season. When it re-appeared in June/July\, tūpuna would read the stars to predict the upcoming season – clear and bright stars promised a warm and abundant winter while hazy stars warned of a bleak winter. \nBecause Māori follow the Māori lunar calendar\, not the European calendar\, the dates for Matariki change every year.  \nWhen to observe Matariki\n\nThe optimum time to observe the rising of Matariki is in the phase of the moon known as Tangaroa\, the moon of plenty. The Tangaroa moon phase occurs in the three or four days leading to a new moon and will fall on different dates each year. \nView TWOA Poster Here
