New Zealand 2020 The Four Wind


Issue date 03 June 2020

New Zealand Post, in celebration of Matariki, has tried to highlight stories associated with Ngā Hau e Whā or The Four Winds with the issue  of a limited edition special Gold Foil miniature sheet featuring an artist rendition of the four Winds with four stamps issued. The four winds are Te Hau Rāwhiti (the easterly), Te Hau-ā-uru (the westerly), Te Hau Tonga (the southerly) and Te Hau Raki (the northerly). Hau can mean air, breath, aura, but it is best known as wind.
