Hinemoana
Goddess of
the Sea
Hinemoana is the goddess of the ocean currents, waves, sea food and
fish. She is forever washing upon the shores of Papatuanuku, mother
earth and it is here we see her rise and fall with the tides that
control and dictate a whole ecosystem of life. The shell fish and food
they we are able to source along the sea shore reminds us how very
important she is for our health and wellbeing. There are now many
beaches in Aotearoa where the shellfish is no longer there or it has
been poisoned with pollution.
