Introducing the 2025 Honu Pin: A Symbol of Hawaii's Spirit

The Aloha Shriners are proud to unveil the 2025 Honu Pin, the official pin of Illustrious Potentate Chris N. Kaminaka. Featuring the Honu, or Hawaiian green sea turtle, this stunning design pays homage to the cultural richness and profound symbolism of Hawaii.

 

In Hawaiian culture, the Honu represents longevity, safety, and mana (spiritual energy). Often regarded as an ‘aumakua—an ancestral spirit—the Honu offers lifelong protection, wisdom, and guidance to those it graces. Its presence is also a harbinger of good luck and peace, making it a fitting emblem for Illustrious Sir Kaminaka’s leadership year.

 

By choosing the Honu as the centerpiece of his pin, Illustrious Sir Kaminaka honors Hawaii’s native traditions and deep spiritual connection to the land and sea. This pin is more than a token; it is a reminder of the enduring values of protection, wisdom, and unity that guide the Aloha Shriners and their mission.
