SEVEN SISTERS
Jeannie’s story is about the Seven Sisters who created landforms during the Dreaming.
They camped in many places all over Australia while running away from a man called Wati (initiated man) Nyiru. Nyiru was in love with the eldest sister and kept chasing them.
Nyiru and the sisters created landforms and sacred sites across Australia. Each language group has different chapters of the same story, and different sites and landmarks made by Nyiru and the sisters.
Eventually, the sisters fled to the Milky Way, where they can still be seen. The sisters are now the Pleiades and Nyiru is Orion; he will never catch them.
