The start of the Hawaiian year coincides with the rising of Makalii (Pleiades), which typically occurs between late October and mid-November. Follow the pō in a clockwise fashion, moving from the outermost ring inward. Each ring represents one full moon cycle or malama (traditional Hawaiian month). The Hawaiian year typically consists of 12 malama, beginning with Welehu and ending with Ikuā. Three extra malama are included in this chart, making this calendar useful through January 23, 2020. Western calendar months are represented by different colors, and Western dates are numbered in each box. There are two seasons in the Hawaiian year: kau (dry season) and hooilo (wet season). Kau starts in the malama of Ikiiki and ends in Ikuā. Hooilo starts in Welehu and ends in Welo. The illustrations of āhole and uala included at the top of this calendar, both kinolau of Lono, represent our ancestral connections to the uka and kai realms that, with cultivation by mahiai and lawaia, nourish our people. For an online version of this moon calendar, please visit www.kamehamehapublishing.org This circular calendar offers a Hawaiian perspective on the flow of time. Its design reflects the relationships among the spiritual, natural, and human realms. In Hawaiian culture, the mahina (moon) is an abode of the goddess Hina. Our kūpuna (ancestors) used the phases of the mahina as a guide to sustain life and maintain balance in the environment. Today, many people continue to rely on traditional Hawaiian knowledge as a guide for daily activities, including fishing and farming. How do the moon cycles affect you, your family, and your environment?
