People born in August are either Leos or Virgos, and they have unique traits and characteristics that make them different from others. “Leos are confident,” Dr. Athena Perrakis said, an astrologist and CEO of crystal company Sage Goddess in the US. “They’re very strong people, physically and mentally — they’re very strong-willed. They’re also very proud and very charismatic. Virgos are very organized, very precise, and detail-oriented. They’re reliable and they’re also intelligent, practical people. They’re charismatic, too, but theirs is a quiet charisma.”
After understanding August borns’ personalities, let’s take a look at their birth flower and birthstone! August is the latest month to claim two birthstones: Peridot and Spinel. This green gem is often mistaken for an emerald, but it has its own hue and is just as pretty. It is believed to imbue the wearer with power and influence. Spinel is available in a brilliant range of colors and is believed to protect the owner from harm and provide relief from a bad mood.
The flower for this month is the Gladiolus. It blooms in a variety of colors like red, pink, white, yellow and orange. It stands for sincerity and symbolizes strength of character. It also indicates that the heart is being “pierced with love” if you send it to your lover.
Now, since we have known much information about those who are born in August, we can set about picking gifts for them. Whether you’re looking for a nice gift for your lover or a naughty present for your kids, these affordable but awesome gift ideas are guaranteed to please.
