Rehua, God of healing and kindness

This beautiful and revitalising illustration of Rehua symbolises his healing powers, In Māori mythology, Rehua is a very sacred personage and is attributed to healing and is also considered the God of kindness, Rehua lives in Te Putahi-nui-o-Rehua in Rangi-tuarea, the tenth and highest of the heavens in some versions of Māori lore. Rehua is identified with certain stars. To the Tūhoe people of the North Island he is Antares. Others say he is Betelgeuse, or Sirius.

Rehua was also associated with the forests, and when Tāne Mahuta visited him, Rehua is said to have regaled him with a repast of birds caught in his own hair, that hair being really the branches of trees.

The large star behind Rehua is his star, (But to the viewer it can represent whichever star that means something to them or their tribe) the dancing "lights" which trail across the scene leaving trails behind them like shooting stars, are depictions of the "healing" nature of Rehua, his "power or energy" the human figure in the center represents humanity as a whole, Rehua heals their afflictions, mind, body and soul.
