Gunmetal, the color given to November 14, is easy to warm to, with a voice that lifts. Its color words point to the center of the circle: you watch the edge of the group so no one is left outside. In print, this color shows a deep tone that absorbs rather than reflects light. Color words put the day's air into language — read them for flavor, not precision.
Try it: An easy accent for nails and small goods that lifts the room.

Ran culminates again on November 14. Trace the long bend of Eridanus west of Orion and this 3.73-magnitude star becomes a waymarker in the sparse winter dark. Sea goddess, harbor of worlds — its star words hold. Near midnight it waits at the center of the southern sky. The birthday color is Gunmetal (#55461B), whose word is the center of the ring. A star by a dark river, a color of quiet metal: the night has a calm core.
Two words — "north" and "greatness" — befit a giant among octopuses. The giant Pacific octopus is a large species taken in northern fisheries, beyond a hand's hold when its arms spread. Its fish words are "north" and "greatness": the weighty presence raised by northern seas, settled into its very name. The season peaks in December and January; the tender, sweet arms shine simmered or in oden. Today's birth color is Gunmetal (#55461B), holding the center of the circle at a late-autumn table.
