And the intense brilliant green of the Emerald, May’s birthstone, is as refreshing to the eyes as a spring garden is after a rain. Within its depths are often tiny fractures or inclusions, which the French call “jardin,” or garden, because of their resemblance to foliage. The Egyptians were known to engrave Emeralds with the symbol for foliage to represent eternal youth, and to bury these jewels with their dead. In the Bible the Emerald was one of the 12 jewels on the Breastplate of the Jewish High Priest representing the 12 tribes of Israel. The Emerald is also mentioned twice in Ezekiel and twice in Revelation… One of your birth flowers not the best known but a great flower is the Hawthorn also known as the “Mayflower” which is from the Rose Family.

I just scratched the surface of it here… The other and best known Birth flower of May although not sure why it is, It seems like the Hawthorn would be the best one for the months birth flower as it is often known as the Mayflower but so be it, thus the most well known flower for the month is the” Lily of the Valley”. A Christian legend of the Lily of the Valley is that it was formed from the tears of Mary as she wept at the crucifixion of Jesus. However unlike the Hawthorn which is very good for you in so many ways The Lily of the Valley is very poisonous all parts causing cardiac arrest. Not so good. However unlike the Hawthorn flower, the Lily of the Valley had a wonderfully delightful fragrance. Just never ingest any part of it. The Lily of the Valley has the flower meaning of humility, chastity, sweetness, purity and is said to bring luck in love. It also means “the return of happiness” which is the reason why it is often used as decorations in weddings. Lily of the valley usually blooms in the month of May it is also sometimes called the May lily. ….. Other things about this greeting of your fabulous month the, Merry Month of May. May 1 is May Day as seen with little girl holding out flowers in the upper right hand. You can use any container and put some flowers it in and then go to a friends or neighbors door put the flowers down, ring their door bell, or knock on their door, then run and hide. The idea is that they don’t see you, however: if they do then they ask you to come in and sit down and talk for a while. May 5: Is National Day of Prayer. In the USA always the first Thursday in May shown by the praying hands on left hand side of greeting National Day of Prayer is an annual holiday that serves to encourage Americans to pray, meditate and repent. It is also used to draw awareness that we as a nation rely on God. The origins of National Day of Prayer date back to 1787, when Benjamin Franklin asked President George Washington to open each day with prayer, and to realize that prayer is deeply intertwined in the fabric of the United States. However, it was not until February 1952 during the Korean War that Reverend Billy Graham petitioned support of Representative Percy Priest to observe a national day of prayer. On April 17, 1952 President Harry Truman signed a bill proclaiming National Day of Prayer, to encourage Americans to turn to God in prayer and meditation. National Prayer Day is celebrated every year on the first Thursday of May. May 8 Sunday, is Mother’s Day where Mothers are honored shown below the praying hands with mother and child. Usually children wear a flower in honor of their mother. A red flower usually carnation can be a rose, is the color one uses to show Mother is alive.. it can also be a pink one. However a white carnation or white flower shows she is gone and one remembers her and honors her even though she is not here anymore. ….. … This year Memorial Day is on traditional Memorial Day May 30th in the United States it used to be called Decoration Day starting in 1868 three years after the Civil War it was started in honor of the GAR (The Grand Army of the Republic) to decorate with flowers all graves of those who fought for north and south alike, that died in the American Civil War. Did you know that both north and south soldiers are buried in Arlington National Cemetery? Later the name was changed to Memorial Day to honor all that died in all wars. It was always celebrated on May 30th until 1971 when congress wanted a longer holiday and changed it to the last Monday in May. This is found near the lower right hand corner of this greeting with Flag and the Eagle for Memorial Day. Many observances are also given on this day. Also numerous, businesses like activity parks and swimming pools etc. Open for the summer season on this day. ….. Of Course there has to be a birthday cake, in this greeting it is in the lower left hand corner and of course it has a candle waiting to be blown out and wish made.
