Hawaiian Menehunes


Have you ever heard about the legendary Hawaiian Menehunes? Here is a little of their history: In Hawaii the Menehunes are called "The Little People of the Secret Power". The Menehunes are often referred to as the legendary, original inhabitants of the Hawaiian Islands. They are hard working, creative little spirits who live in the forest and in caves. Much of their time is enjoyed building dams, fishponds and heiaus (temples).


The Menehunes are mystical, shy little creatures hiding in secret places of the forest during the day, and performing their magic at night under the glow of the moon. Menehunes take the greatest pleasure in doing good deeds to help people. With their great determination and perseverance they possess a magical ability to get things done. According to legend, they don’t work for free, they must be fed! Mai’as (bananas) are their favorite food.


Hawaiians often refer to the Menehunes as their Aumakuas (ancestral spirits) who guide and protect them. To the ancient Hawaiians, an Aumakua was a deified ancestral guardian spirit, embodying the form of an animal to watch over their descendants. An Aumakua could manifest itself as a shark, a sea turtle, an 'Io (hawk), a pueo (owl) or other animal. The Aumakuas empower, guide, protect and inspire their descendants. Many Hawaiians have such a strong connection to Pueo, the white Hawaiian Owl that she becomes their Aumakua (ancestral spirit). The Pueo has always been sacred to the Hawaiians and treated with the utmost love and respect. This divine bird of power is considered the "Bringer of Good Luck," as well as a protector and messenger. The Pueo may be called upon for advice and guidance. Menehunes are little messengers of Hawaiian spirituality. They generously advise and help people to fulfill all their wishes. Hawaiian Menehunes open the gateway to the magical world of our inner child, helping us to reconnect with our deepest and purest spiritual essence. They remind us of our origin, of the innocence, purity, and divinity within us. Many People in Hawaii have actually seen Menehunes.
