8 Birthstone Sapphire The cool blue sapphire is made of corundum, and when it is red, it is called a ruby. The most expensive sapphires are mined in Kashmir and Myanmar, but they are also found in Australia, Africa, and India. Sapphires are very hard and durable. Perhaps that is why they are associated with truth and fidelity. In ancient mes, it was believed that if the wearer was unfaithful, the stone would not shine. Sapphires were reputed to have healing powers that helped with eye and ear problems, bleeding, and inflamma on. Flower Aster The aster is named for its star-shaped flower. Also known as the Michaelmas daisy, it blooms in the fall with blue, pink, and white blossoms. Some folklore says that burning aster leaves will keep snakes away. The aster symbolizes valor, and it is some mes seen at the burial of soldiers. A 1918 Hungarian revolt is known as the Aster Revolu on because protesters wore the flower when they a acked government buildings in Budapest. In Victorian mes, the aster meant Take care of yourself for me. September, now the ninth month, was named for sep mus, meaning seven, its original place in the Roman calendar. (January and February were added in 46 BC.) September was called harvest month in Charlemagne s calendar. Anglo-Saxons called the month Gerstmonath, or barley month, for the crop that was usually harvested then.
