Star words: mane, grandeur
Leo · γ1 Leo · mag 2.61 — Culminates around midnight
February 22 is another winter jasmine date, this time with Ukoniro (#FABF14) and the color word harvest. Blessing and elegance are still its hanakotoba, and it still peaks in February and March. This is a deep turmeric yellow, much closer to the flower's own color than the crimson of its first appearance, so the pairing is almost a match and the date feels warmer for it.
February 22 shines with Algieba — 'the forehead' in Arabic — the 2.61-magnitude star in Leo's brow.

The day's color is Ukoniro (#FABF14), a turmeric yellow whose color word is harvest. Twin golds above, ripe yellow below: the day is doubled in abundance.
The fish chosen for this day is the Arctic flounder, a slender flounder whose salt-grilled skin and the savor around its bones are said to stand out. Having finished its preparations for winter, its flesh is said to be at its tight, peak best now. Its fish words are "willow leaf" and "winter". The peak season is January and February. The birth color of the day is "Ukoniro" (#FABF14). A turmeric yellow of harvest, served hot from the grill.
