Goldenrod returns on November 21, paired with Pale Sallow (#C8CEAC) and the color word "the soil's memory." Success and protection are still the themes. The pale green-cream is a quieter color than the earlier yellows, like the field after the flowers have gone to seed.
On November 21 the honor goes to Menkib in Perseus — 'the shoulder of the Pleiades' in Arabic, though the star itself is a fiercely hot blue giant whose radiation lights the nearby California Nebula. Magnitude 3.98, star words shoulder strength and hot heart, culminating near midnight. The day's color cools the scene: Pale Sallow (#C8CEAC), a dried-grass tone read as the memory of soil. Heat above, remembered earth below; the ground keeps what the fire gave.
About as long as a finger, the Japanese smelt wears silvery, almost translucent skin and lives in shoals through the lakes, where fishing continues even under winter ice, it is said. Its fish words are "snow" and "lightness" — small, supple, brightening the snowy north. The season peaks in January and February, with November on the way: fried whole, it turns crisp and fragrant from head to tail. Today's birth color is Pale Sallow (#C8CEAC), adding a light note to a mountain winter table.
If you were born on Nov 21, your birth fruit is the Persimmon. The Persimmon is a berry whose peak runs Oct and Nov. Fruit words attach "happiness and autumn harvest" to the Persimmon. It is in season Oct and Nov. The color side of the day is Pale Sallow (#C8CEAC). The color word here is "the soil's memory". A seasonal fruit and a birthday color, sharing one date.
