For this blog post, I made the stars in the Matariki cluster relate to animals and I painted them.
Here is a photo.
The names mean-
Waipunarangi = sky spring, I chose a Springbok because they 'spring' and are jumping in the sky.
Waiti = sweet water, I chose a jellyfish because they live in the water and are one of my favourite animals.
Waita = sprinkle of water, I chose a frog because they like the water but aren't an underwater animal.
Matariki = eyes of Tawhirimatea, I chose an owl because they are known for their bright, bold eyes.
Ururangi = entry to the heavens, I chose an angelfish because they have angel in their name.
Tupu-a-rangi = sky tohunga, I chose a giraffe because they live up in the clouds.
Tupu-a-nuku = earth tohunga, I chose a pig because they love mud and the ground.
Thats all for today! See you later.
