November 11th Month on the Gregorian Calendar, is second to last month of the year. It is the last month of fall in the Northern Hemisphere, also the last of the four months with 30days. On the Romulus Calendar 750BC it was the ninth month, then named ‘novem’ which in Latin means nine. Topaz and Citrine are colours associated with this month.
Metaphysically November acts as season for us to re-evaluate and refocus, so that we might best realign ourselves. The number 11 represents intuition, and a higher level of consciousness as well and the end of a fall cycle, wherein, we can raise our inner vibrations, re-discover, and re-energize ourselves, to meet our best potentialities.

October tenth month of the year, comes from an old Latin word Octo which literally translates eight, was the eight month in the old Calendar of Romulus c..750 B C. It was also called Winterfylleth by the Saxons, meaning fullness of winter, as it sets us up in preparation for the colder, darker months ahead.
Later it became the 9th month when two months were added to the then Calendar. Nine representing wisdom and a season of vast possibilities. Nine letters in its name!
There is something about August that raises hope, and generates a sense of fun and celebration; perhaps it is because we are heading towards the last days of expected sunny days as the year rolls over to the darker cooler season.
“Persons born in April is said to be very energetic and active. They have a great love for food, reading and travel. April folk laugh, and being full of life, they are fun to be around. Queen Elizabeth II and Shakespeare share this birthday. Some say is sacred to goddess Venus.”
