September is the ninth month of the Julian and Gregorian calendars, lasting for 30 days. In the Northern Hemisphere, September is the month of the autumn equinox and in the Southern Hemisphere, the month of the spring equinox. It is named after the Latin term septem, meaning "seven", as the month was originally the seventh month of the Julian calendar. Its birthstone is the sapphire, and its flowers are the aster, the forget-me-not, and the morning glory.
