Ever wondered where they came up with the idea of the name for the month of august?

 

It was originally named after the famous Roman emperor Augustus

 

It was originally born Gaius Octavius and he was the Grand nephew of Julius Caesar which later in many texts was known as Octavian then after 31 BC when he defeated Marc Anthony and the Cleopatra he was given the name Emperor which is the honorary title of Augustus

 

The word August also means Majestic and inspires reverence coming from the word augury meaning the Act of divination

 

So enjoy this month as an opportunity to explore your own divination, your own ability to be the Emperor of your own life

 

As an ancient saying once reports ” may your August be filled with favorable Omens and devoid of unlucky circus clowns”

………

I love you
