Star Gazers

ALOHA STAR GAZERS, TRACE HERE -- ONCE WE WERE VOYAGERS, AND IN ORDER TO EXPLORE# THE WORLD, WE NEEDED DIRECTIONS.

ONE WAY TO FIND OUR WAY IS TO USE THE STARS - AND THIS WEEK# WE CAN FIND SOUTH USING MAUIS FISH HOOK!

HIT THE DARKNESS AT 11PM AND LOOK SOUTH# FOR THE SIXTH BRIGHTEST STAR IN THE SKY: THE RED GIANT ANTARES.

YOU# MAY KNOW THIS AS THE HEART OF SCORPIUS THE SCORPION!

AND SCORPIUS# CONTAINS MAUIS FISHHOOK - HERE.

SEE?

IN POLYNESIAN FOLKLORE, MAUI THREW# HIS MAGIC FISHHOOK IN THE WATER ON A FISHING EXPEDITION WITH HIS BROTHERS.# HE SUGGESTED THEY ALL PADDLE TOGETHER, AND NO MATTER WHAT THEY CAUGHT THEY# SHOULD NOT STOP OR LOOK BACK.

HOURS LATER, AN EXHAUSTED MAUI HAD PULLED THE# HAWAIIAN ISLANDS TO THE SURFACE!

THERE YOU HAVE IT.

WITH MAUIS HOOK# IN THE SOUTH PLUS THE NORTH STAR - YOU TOO CAN GIVE THE SKY A HIGH FIVE - OR NAVIGATE.

WHAT CAN I SAY, EXCEPT MAHALO.

KEEP LOOKIN UP!
