Matariki is the Māori name for a cluster of stars known by many names around the world - the Pleiades/Seven Sisters/Subaru/Messier 45, just to name a few. The stars of Matariki disappear from view over summer in Aotearoa, and then reappear with the first new
moon of <i>Pipiri</i> (June). The return of Matariki in the sky before dawn is a marker of the Māori New Year, and a time for remembrance, celebrating the present, and looking to the future.<br>
<br>
Puanga is the Māori name for the star Rigel, part of the Orion constellation. Many<i> iwi
</i>(tribes) on the western coast of Aotearoa where <i>maunga </i>(mountains) prevent the view of Matariki in the eastern skies use Puanga as a guide for the changing seasons.<br>
