PUREA NEI

There are huge shifts emerging
Since the turn of Whiro
~ the new moon of Hereturikōkā

My body has felt the realignment
From being light bodied & agile
To feeling heavy & aching in core areas
I won’t toil over it
But I have had to consciously
Apply Rongoā approaches on the daily

Rongoā in terms of its fullness
Sensing the different Ātua
Being with their energy more fully
Embracing a part of my whakapapa - heritage
That is a direct descent line to Ngāti Ātua

Going to the moana
Playing Taonga Pūoro
Cleaning and clearing
Taking tinctures & decoctions
Having body work
Seeking deep conversations
Breathwork with karakia

My highlight was a pure ahiahi
Using kauri and manuka
That was the pinnacle and a turning point
To relinquish & renew under the growing
Light of Hina Marama
She definately delivered

So whānau, don’t become stuck
With only one way to feel & experience
The full vitality of your life

Ka ora! Ka ora!

The dark is only possible
Because we know there is light
In this I trust, in this I embrace
As we continue to walk each other home

Tihei Mauri Ora e!!!!

KOREKORE TURUA
17.6.25

As we sit in the Korekore phase
We begin to prepare for
The auspicious Tangaroa cycle
Which heralds in the Matariki season

I wonder what you’re doing?
Today and tomorrow to put to bed
The past years learnings
In order to enter into this New Year

As per our cyclic compass
We are in the fullness of Takurua
With the thermometer peaking at 1 degrees
And tio appearing on Papa
Huka blanketing our Mounga

This freshness in the morning
Is for taking those deep,
Long breaths in
Cycling in this new energy

And breathing out
From deep within the belly
Anything stuck or not needed

Cast it out with aroha
Disentangle it with rangimārie
You are so ready for this next
Life adventure

I’m entering into Hautapu as of tomorrow
And will use ritual to reset my
Inner and outer navigational system
Through Puanga & Matariki
Alongside my trusted and faithful
Hina Marama

What are you doing to
Release > Renew?

Get your fire 🔥 set
It’s going to be an amazing year
Are you ready ###
