See my Halau ka La Onohi Album for a few more shots of the Lopez sisters’ new Kalihi halau, which is just three years old, and just recieved their first invitation to the Merrie Monarch Festival next year. The Kumu of this Halau teach Hawaiian Studies at UH Manoa.
The goddess energy was so thick on this day (Sun 22 Jul – see my Pi’ilani Album as well) that I dragged out my Ephemerides to see what the planet Venus was up to. It was with the Sun in sidereal Gemini, and in mutual reception with Mercury in Taurus. Scorchin’! It doesn’t get better for the dance than that, and this will be true until 7 July. The Royal Hawaiian Band’s hula program runs through June, and there is one more Sunday in June, the 29th, which will no doubt be choke little scorchers as well. I wouldn’t miss it.
2:00 o’clock, Sun 29 Jun 08, Kapiolani Park Bandstand. Be there, or be, um, WRONG!
