The Napaljarri–warnu Jukurrpa (seven sisters Dreaming) depicts the story of the seven ancestral Napaliarri sisters who are found 1n the night sky today in the cluster of
seven stars 1n the constellation Taurus. More commonly known as the Pleiades, Napaljarri–warnu Jukurrpa are seven women of the Napaljam skin group and are often depicted in
paintings of this Jukurrpa carrying the Jampijinpa man wardtlyka – the bush turkey (Ardeotis australis) who is in love with the Napaljarri–warnu and who represents the Onon’s Belt cluster of stars Jukurra-Jukurra.

The morning star is a Jakamarra man who 1s also in love with the seven Napaljarri sisters and is often shown chasing them across the night sky in a final attempt to escape from the Jakamarra the Napaljam-wamu turned themselves into fire and ascended to the heavens to become stars. The custodians of the Napaljarri–warnu Jukurrpa are Jampijinpa Junarray men and Napaljarn/Nungarrayi women.

Some parts of the Napaljarri–warnu Jukurrpa are closely associated with men’s sacred ceremonies.
