2025 KE ALA O KA MAHINA
This circular calendar offers a Hawaiian perspective on the flow of time. Its design reflects the relationships among the spiritual, natural, and human realms. 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.
