Kalei Nu'uhiwa posted to the 'Aimalama Facebook page. Saying it was a little late, but, the new Malama (Month) of Nana began on March 8, 2016. Here is part of the message she left, and relates to the upcoming Spring Equinox (Saturday, March 19, 2016 for Seattle) and Lunar Eclipse on Wednesday, March 23, 2016. Kalei's kilo is based on Hawaiian Time, if you live somewhere else, make the necessary time adjustments.
"Atmospheric activities we can expect are: Piko o Wākea - Equinox scheduled to happen on our heiau between March 20-22. We also have a partial lunar eclipse scheduled to begin on March 22nd at 11:30pm, will peak around 1:45am on the 23rd and end around 4:00am the 23rd. Check out the website below for more information. Hawaiian names for lunar eclipses are Pō uli, Mahina Uli, Mahina ʻUla & Malama ʻUla. Chant to pray for health during a lunar eclipse:
I Hiʻiaka paha ʻoe i Hiʻialo, I Kakahiaka nei, I ka lāʻau a ke kaukau aliʻi, I nui ke aho, A hiki i mauli ola, I ola iā Mahina uli, I ola iā Mauli ola ē."Mahalo e Kalei!
