November

and what better date to post the eleventh month’s* painting, but the …eleventh!

November the eleventh!

Autumn turning gold and colder.

November’s flower is Chrysanthemum [and Peony]

and birthstone: Topaz [and citrine].

Yes, the color is yellow – gold.

Chrysanthemum stands for joy, compassion, friendship, and love. [here’s to a joyful, loving and compassionate month!]

Eleven [the number], is very important in numerology, as it is the first of the Master Numbers.

and for a little number trivia…

• The 11th moon of Jupiter is Himalia.

• 11 is the number of spacetime dimensions in M-theory.

• Apollo 11 was the first manned spacecraft to land on the Moon.

• 11 is the atomic number of the element sodium.

• November begins with the sun in the sign of Scorpio and ends in the sign of Sagittarius (in western astrology).

…yes, I knew you’d like to know! ;-)
*The month’s name origin is from the Latin NOVEM meaning “nine” [Ninth month in the Roman calendar].

SO, here is…

there’s nothing to write about
