"The Cosmos: Luukeileng, the Center of Heaven" 

Inspired by one of the primary Micronesian gods whose blessing was invoked during the pwo initiation ceremony for those deemed ready to lead seafaring voyages by utilizing only traditional Polynesian navigational techniques.

                                                    "Ka ʻIwa I Mua o ka Waʻa"

             "The Frigate Bird Guides the Canoe / The Ancestors Guide the People". 

As the only bird known to deliberately use the turbulence of cumulus clouds to

rise up to 2 miles into the sky so that it can soar effortlessly for weeks,

the ʻIwa represents the guidance of the ancestors sent to call the people

in the waʻa of Hawaiʻi to not only rise above the storm clouds, but to use

the energy of those storms to find their best path forward.

"Moe Manō Kihikihi"

"Dream of the Scalloped Hammerhead"

The ʻaumakua of the Hawaiian people may appear in real life, in visions, or in dreams to offer practical and spiritual guidance from departed family ancestors to their descendants. The hammerhead shark is one of the most respected sharks and is not considered a man-eater, but rather one that offers protection from the other sharks. Some believe that the hammerhead shark is also the birth animal of children who are destined to be warriors and sail the oceans. This spiritual connection to sharks has led to Hawaiʻi having some of the strongest shark protection in the world.
