We don’t know about you, but we can always tell when September has arrived. The air just instantly feels crisper, the evening a little cosier and we instantly have the urge to decorate our homes with adorable pumpkins. Those born at the beginning of this new season have the best of both worlds, getting to enjoy the remaining warmth of the summer with the cosy vibes of autumn. And they also get a super pretty September birth flower to go with it, the aster.
What is the September Birth Flower?
Unlike August’s double act, September keeps things simple with just one birth flower. But trust us, when that bloom is the aster, one is more than enough. With its delicate, star-shaped petals and a colourful late-season flourish, asters brighten gardens just as the year starts to fade into autumn. Their name comes from the Greek word for “star,” which feels fitting since these flowers look like little constellations scattered across the earth.
What Does the September Birth Flower Represent?
Like so many of the birth flowers, the aster has many rich layers of symbolism. For starters, the September birth flower is strongly tied to the traits of wisdom, love, patience and faith, making it a thoughtful tribute to those born in September.
In folklore, asters were even believed to hold magical powers, protecting against negative energy and bringing good fortune. And in Victorian times, gifting an aster was a romantic gesture, symbolising deep affection and loyalty. It’s a flower that radiates strength, devotion, and a touch of magic which we think is perfect for September souls.
