11.01.2022 Moko Kauae - The Symbol of Mana Wahine In light of what has transpired over the last few days on social media in regards to moko kauae and te Reo, we have seen ...comments (directly and indirectly) where women are now discouraged to take up the ancestral markings for fear of being judged, or it has made those already wearing the markings feel less worthy of themselves. We hope this video assures you that moko is your birthright as Maori. Whatever your opinion may be, in our experience, Moko is HEALING Moko is TRANSFORMATIVE Moko is EMPOWERING Moko is IDENTITY Moko is CULTURE Moko is WHAKAPAPA Whether you speak Te Reo or not. In saying that, Te Reo and Moko are two related things for sure. Both offer integral waananga to our identity retrieval as Tangata Whenua. And Te Reo offers a pathway to think outside of the English/Latin, and all the other languages they borrowed from paradigm. In our humble opinion, in order to decolonize the mind, we should learn our ancestral way of thinking. Everyone’s path is different and whatever order you choose to decolonize (reo before moko, or moko before reo), lets all support each other through this journey together of normalising everything in Te Ao Mori. For me, my Reo is still developing and has been an ongoing journey most of my life! But I plod along and am thoroughly enjoying that journey For more reading on Mataora and Moko Kauae, visit >> https://artselemental.com/mataora - Credits: : Mareikura by Modern Mori Quartet : Arts Elemental & Recipients themselves Disclaimer: Arohamai to the many other valued moko kauae recipients done by Tu that are not featured in this video.

06.01.2022 Battle of the Mountains: TONGARIRO - The Mori Legend In a time long ago, seven personified mountains were born from the landscape. There lived six males Ton...gariro, Taranaki, Ruapehu, Ngauruhoe, Tauhara and Putauaki and one female, Pihanga. Their catch cry as children was We will always be together, and nothing will ever separate us! As millenia passed, the boy mountains grew into powerful male warriors while Pihanga blossomed into a comely fern-covered mist maiden, who each of them desired for a wife. Choose! cried Tongariro You must choose! I cannot, replied Pihanga. I love you all equally. Then we will battle, and the victor will be your husband, declared Tongariro. One by one, the mountains came up against Tongariro and one by one they were defeated. Finally, only Taranaki was left to face the powerful Tongariro. Their battle was spectacularly violent as each mountain was evenly matched. The battle raged on for months until a burning Pihanga cried out Stop! as she lay close to death in her scorched and blackened cloak of fern. Rather than lose her, Taranaki conceded defeat and so Pihanga became Tongariro’s wife. As countless millenia passed, the landscape healed and the vanquished mountains moved away: Tauhara and Putauki to the north and Ruapehu and Ngauruhoe to the south. Many children were born to Tongariro and Pihanga including one, Panitahi, who looked very different to the others. Gossip and innuendo flowed across the landscape until Tongariro, suspicious of his friend Taranaki, decided to lay a trap. Pretending to be asleep, he caught his friend and his wife in a tender embrace. Tongariro erupted in a gigantic rage that was heard around the world. Huge explosions tore the landscape apart. The crater formed from the largest explosion would eventually fill with water, becoming the lake we know today as Lake Taupo. Remembering what happened to Pihanga during the previous battles, Taranaki chose not to engage with Tongariro, but retreated instead. Gathering up Panitahi, he fled heartbroken to the west, guided by the stone Te Toka Rauhoto Tapairu. As he fled, he carved out a deep scar in the landscape. On reaching the sea, Pouakai one of five west coast mountains spread out her arms to comfort Taranaki until the setting sun transfixed him to the spot. He has remained there to this day, with Panitahi at his side, and the guide stone who now resides at Puniho Pa, south of New Plymouth. In time, Tongariro settled down and began to weep for his lost friend, his tears filling the scar in the landscape that today we know as the Whanganui River. It is thought that one day the guide stone will release Taranaki to return to his true love, Pihanga. True love really can move mountains. But for the moment, the mountains sleep. See more

03.01.2022 Today in history - 2 May 1858 Pootatau Te Wherowhero Noo te 2 o Mei 1858 ka whakawahia a Pootatau Te Wherowhero ki te paipera tapu i Ngaaruawaahia. Naa Wiremu T...amihana te karakia whakauu i te wairua tapu ki te panepane o Te Wherowhero. Naa Rewi Maniapoto te kara i whakarere. Naa ngaa rangatira te hiimene a ‘Ka mahue a Ihipa’ i tau. The 2nd of May is an historical day in the history of the Kiingitanga. After the travels of Matene Te Whiwhi across the country to interview appropriate candidates for the office of King, after the grand hui of Te Heuheu at Puukawa on the shores of Lake Taupoo, after the many hui discussions within Tainui Waka, Te Wherowhero (after he declined three times) finally agreed to the wishes of the people and accepted the Kiingitanga. It was on May 2nd 1858 that Te Wherowhero was officially raised up at his Paa in Ngaaruawaahia. His Paa overlooked the confluence of the Waikato and Waipaa Rivers near a stream that flowed from a puna into the river. Later, Te Puea built Tuurangawaewae House on the southern part of the Paa and across the road a stone monument was erected in Te Wherowhero’s honour. He had already been inducted with ancient karakia by Te Tapihana at Rangiaowhia. On this occaision, Tamihana prayed with Christian verses and annointed Te Wherowhero with oil. Those present sang the hymn ‘Ka mahue a Ihipa’ (a hymn sung when Moses lead the Isrealites out of Egypt in the great exodus. Maaori felt that the Kiingitanga was setting Maaori free from the bonds of oppression). On this day, Te Wherowhero exclaimed, ‘Kotahi te koowhao o te ngira e kuhuna ai te miro maa, te miro whero me te miro pango. I muri i a au, kia mau ki te ture, ki te whakapono, ki te aroha hei aha te aha, hei aha te aha!’ There is one eye of the needle through which the white, the red and the dark threads must pass. After me, hold fast to the law, to the faith and to love, no matter what. Pootatau Te Wherowhero 2 May 1858 Kiingi o te Tika 1858 - 1860
