Hokuao Temple & Eluawaipili Syntropic Farm

Hokuao – A Temple of Our Beloved Futures

Hokuao is the Hawaiian name for Venus, the morning star,  goddess of love, peace and reconciliation. Hokuao is the star that helped fisherman/voyagers find their way home back to the islands in the morning.  

She was known as a chiefess, a feminine leader and wayfinder.  This was the ancient farmer’s star. When Hokuao moved into its place as the morning star, it signaled to farmers to begin the planting season. 

Hokuao temple arises in this transition time to help us wayfind towards new, life-centric, syntropic futures collectively, with ‘aina, earth, as our primary guide and ally.  

This is a gathering space, a portal, a center for societal metamorphosis, a temple of our beloved futures that we collectively imagine and bring into being.

These healing spaces anchor vibrations of peace and right relations at all levels of Life:  ‘Aina and non-human relations, self, community, planet.
