I played with some images a couple of weeks ago. I couldn't find many that were available for use, plus I was not keen on being culturally insensitive and using the wrong imagery. So I decided not to have it.

I would not be offended by a Matariki badge.

I'd be delighted if we had one and also I am someone who enjoys learning about different cultures and also making an effort to learn the language too.

 

 

 

A lot of my emails that I do I've been adding in more and more Maori just because:

 

A. it's natural

 

B. we are Aotearoa.

Imo any public domain pleadies image optimized for the size will be good to start.

I did say good morning to the seven sisters at work this morning (at least I think I was looking at the correct stars). Interestingly the stars are close to the “Grand Alignment” of planets (Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn) plus the moon, at the moment.

 

Not bothered one way or the other about the badge, happy with time and a half and a day in lieu for working a public holiday 😁. My main reservation with the badge is (as Batman has pointed out) it may make Subaru drivers more obnoxious than they already are…….

Yes, and I found the first one but didn't like how it looked as a badge - but I see the second link's got some good ones, so I might use that and assign to people later.

Happy New Year again! (who ever it concerns in the southern hemisphere :-).
