In July 2025, Te Whare Ō Kupe-Ariki and Te Whare Atua Ō IO Tikitikiōrangi reopened Te Rangitūhāhā, Marae Vaeāra‘i, Ra‘iātea recognised as Stargate 13.

It stands as the connecting gateway that links the twelve other Stargates throughout Planet Earth, establishing a unified network within the multi-dimensional IO-verse.

Aotearoa, Te Ika ā Māui, is the first place within the multi-dimensional IO-verse to receive the light upon Te Maunga o Hikurangi on the East Coast of Aotearoa.

From this place, the light is carried forward.

We acknowledge ourselves as the carriers of that light and the responsibility that accompanies it.

Aotearoa, Te Ika ā Māui, together with Te Kōhanga Ō Ngā Kāhui Ariki (Castle Hill), holds the Manawa, Pūmanawa, Whatumanawa and Te Awe - the energy, frequency, and vibration of the central heart and soul of the multi-dimensional IO-verse throughout all infinite solar systems across eternity.

For Te Whare Atua Ō IO Tikitikiōrangi and Te Whare Ō Kupe-Ariki, this is why Aotearoa, Te Ika ā Māui is recognised as the Home of IO and why it is regarded as a place of profound spiritual responsibility, guardianship, and connection for present and future generations.
