Origin Story
“For the Mi'gmaq people, the eight-point star is significant because it shares the story of how life began and encompasses the teachings within all that is life. In the old way it was told in our community, a star fell from heaven and crawled upon the shore. This is how life was created. Glooscap then formed the landscapes and animals, and then the people. There are many legends about Glooscap's relationships with the elements, creatures, animals and humans, all of which share stories of the meaning of life and how to navigate wisely. My dad Gilbert used to say that Glooscap would come back one day. We keep the stories alive when we keep telling them in the ways we know how, with the gifts that we each have. Everyone is important and we learn from each other. Today we use the eight-point star as a teaching tool and symbol to honour life and our ancestors.”
