Aboriginal Six Seasons Candles Fashion
Description
The Noongar seasons have always been a part of Aboriginal life and like time itself, the six Noongar seasons represent a predictable timetable of foreseeable events. Acknowledgement that nothing is unconnected and each change is being influenced by the last.
