✨Mānawatia a Matariki✨ Basecamp will be open ✨Mānawatia a Matariki✨
Basecamp will be open 12noon - 7pm this Friday 24 June - the first time Matariki has been celebrated with a public holiday here in Aotearoa.

For Māori, the rising of Matariki signals the beginning of the Māori New Year. Māori observe the brightness and visibility of the stars to predict how the year ahead will be. It also signifies a time to gather, reflect, remember those who are no longer with us, celebrate the present, and plan for the future.

The nine stars of the Matariki cluster each hold special meaning. Each star is connected to the earth, and the brightness of the individual stars help predict what the year ahead will look like.

✨Matariki – this star holds a very important connection to wellbeing and health. She guides the other stars, her children, through the night sky – all of whom have an important connection to the activities on the earth.
✨Pōhutukawa – the oldest of the cluster and connected to those who have passed on since the last rising of Matariki.
✨Tipuānuku – this star is connected to all food that is gathered/harvested from the soil.
✨Tipuārangi – has a strong association of things that grow above our head ­– so things that grow up in trees, including fruits, berries and birds.
✨Waitī – the star associated with freshwater bodies and foods from these waters.
✨Waitā – associated with the ocean and foods that come from it.
✨Waipunārangi – star connected to the rainfall of the year.
✨Ururangi – connected to the winds.
✨Hiwaiterangi – star associated with the wishes we hold in our hearts and the attainment of goals.
