Matariki

Once upon a time there were seven fish playing by some rocks. Their mother told them to play close to the rocks because Tataraimaka was fishing with his black net. The seven fish forgot about their mother’s warning because they were having so much fun playing tag. All of a sudden the black net was dropped on the seven fish. They cried for help and made the water salty with their tears. The God of light felt sorry for the fish so he took the net out of the water and turned the fish into stars and they are known as Matariki.
