Ku'uaki made his preparations on the baseball field found within Odell Park.  He had a dish of water to catch the moon's refection. He placed it on a prepared white cloth.  Three candles were placed around the dish.  One white, one red, and one black.  Ku'aki was glad that he had brought his own supplies.  It was difficult to get black candles in Fredericton.

He sat before the dish, lit the candles,  and started his invocation:

"I call upon Hina-hanaia-I-ka-malam.  Lady Hina, you made your pilgramage to the moon on a night such as this when the boundaries between the spheres are weak.  You and your canoe were able to cross over.  Now you oversee the work of women and guide them.  I ask for your help to to protect the women in this city.  What can I do to avert disaster?"

Part of being a spiritualist was knowing when to stop talking and listen.  Ku'uaki clamed his breathing and waited patiently for an answer.

When it came, it was in the form of a silver cascade of light which whispered into Ku'uaki's heart and told him what to do.

Ku'uaki bowed his head and thanked the godess.
