Hawaiian Islands

There are many different theories about why the people of the Marquesas Island people came to Hawaii.  Some believe that it is war, a severe climate or lack of resources forced them to leave their home land. Other believe that they arrived in search of better fishing grounds as they tended to fish way out at sea. It is thought that the first group of Marquesans arrived  in Hawaiian Islands about A.D. 447 settling in Waimanalo, O’hau at Bellows Beach on the windward side of the island.

No doubt some of you are wondering about the details of the Mercury Direct Station of February 11, 2015.  We have much to say about it because a number of patterns are in play, and the maps are interesting.  This will be one of our longer entries, and we will be developing it over the course of Feb 9 / 10.  We start with twin yods that tell us that each of us, both collectively and individually, have TWO distinctly different decisions facing us as Mercury turns direct.  Here is that chart:

aloha_friday_pa'uridersPa’u riders (pronounced Pah-oo riders)[1], also called paʻu riders or pa-u riders (and sometimes written as pāʻū riders), are Hawai’ian women who wear long, colorful skirts (Hawaiian: pāʻū) and characteristically ride horseback astride, rather than sidesaddle.  This equestrian tradition dates to the early 19th century, when horses were introduced to Hawai’i and Aliʻi women dressed up to ride for formal occasions. It declined after the overthrow of the Kingdom of Hawai’i, but was revitalized in the early 20th century with the establishment of formal riding organizations.  Today, pa’u riders participate in Kamehameha Day floral parades and other parades and festivals throughout the islands.
