Boorong / Wergaia
Chargee Gnowee
Chargee Gnowee is Venus as the elder sister of the Sun in the Boorong list.
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander astronomies widely distinguish planets from twinkling stars. Venus is often a person with a path along the ecliptic.
Yolŋu Barnumbirr is also Venus. That does not make Chargee Gnowee the same being. The switcher keeps the sister and the Morning Star in separate packs.
Planets wander, so /sky places a labelled marker on the ecliptic road rather than a fixed Hipparcos pin.
Mercury 91 is not affiliated with any Aboriginal Land Council, Torres Strait Islander organisation, museum, or Stellarium. This library cites published ethnoastronomy. It is not a partnership and not a single pan-Aboriginal sky.
