This week, I’m featuring Halloween words for the holiday. Keep in mind, this is a playful series with some common symbols or words associated with Halloween. The black cat or “pōpoki `ele`ele” ( pow po kee eh lay eh lay ) symbolizes good luck in some countries and bad luck when paired to Halloween. Of course, they are superstitions, and it is not different in Hawai`i. Personally, I’ve never truly believed in it, but I do know many people who consider them an omen. Take into consideration that Hawai`i has a massive amount of strays, but every now and then there is a reference that a black cat is paired with a witch….. stay tuned for tomorrow’s word.
A hui hou,
Haunani
