Description
March is the third month of the Julian and Gregorian calendars, lasting for 31 days. In the Northern Hemisphere, March is the month of the spring equinox and in the Southern Hemisphere, the month of the autumn equinox. It is named after Mars, the Roman god of war.
March's birthstones are the aquamarine and the bloodstone, representing courage. Like December, March's flowers are the daffodils (Narcissus). In regards to the western zodiac, March is under the sign of Pisces until the 20th, when the zodiac restarts under the sign of Aries.
Note: This should only be tagged when a monthly calendar is in the picture or when the picture is visibly March-themed. It should not be tagged for a themed art month (such as Inktober) or the month a post was originally created.
