Astrological data for July 19th birthdays:
In accordance with Western Astrology, those born on July 19th are born under Cancer, the sign of the Crab which is of Water Element, of Fixed Quality and ruled planetarily by the silvery white Moon. The constellation of Cancer holds some well known stars or star clusters such as the Kwan Kei cluster (Bright Fire), Praesepe or Beehive Cluster(the manger) and Asellus Borealis(the northern donkey). Cancerian folk are often described as very intuitive, home loving and deeply sentimental though they do need the attention and social interaction through community situations or individuals that they feel comfortable with and that they feel understands them or they will quickly “clam up” and retreat into their Crab shell never to be enticed out again for fear of repeated hurt-whether real or imagined in nature. Most Cancerian souls love to take care and provide a safe home or environment for others and they are fabulous hosts with warm homes you are invited into or lost souls wandering and depressing to be around if those needs are somehow not available. They love to do anything inside or out that has to do with the home, and often there is a prominent water feature on or near their property. Cancerians are usually very cheery, loyal and resourceful but often times inside very insecure which can cause struggle in relationships because there natural protective Cancer tendencies allow it remain inside until it manifests as a point of no return break instead of open communication that could have easily fixed it prior. Cancer folk tend to be very creative in any field they choose and also are easily influenced by the mother/mother figure in their life(male or female) or by the lack of at a very deep level as well as tend to be very adept at mothering others-for better or for worse benefit wise of both parties. They keep everything and refuse to throw out even their old tennis shoes that they outgrew in high school unless of course for the benefit of another then without question. Cooking, music and water recreation are oft times hobbies and pursuits of those born under the sign of Cancer.

Birthstone/Birth Flower specifics for July 19th birthdays:
The birthstone most commonly associated with your July 19th birthday is the glowing Ruby, root of which is found in Latinized “ruber” meaning “red”. Pearl and Moonstone are also less common stones for July births. It symbolizes courage, devotion, integrity, happiness and strength. The clarity of the ruby’s red color is reputed to energetically induce prosperity and enhance energy as well as to energetically effect and possibly lessen blood diseases and infections and for increasing metabolism and mind alertness. Rubies are found heavily in Asia Minor and Northern Africa but are also found in the South Eastern United States. The deep red ruby color accounts for the most popular of the precious gems desired but ironically the lighter a ruby’s “redness” is(some rare times even a translucent violet)-the higher the clarity of that particular stone, similar to sapphires and emeralds. The red of the ruby often was used in early Christianity to denote fire and today still signifies the powerful intercession of the Holy Spirit and Pentecost. The ruby’s hardness is second only to that of the diamond.
For those of you born on July 19th your birth flower is The Water Lily. Alternate and less common is The Blue Larkspur. Water lilies root deep in soil beneath a body of water but its full blooms float and open on the surface. There are two main groups of water lilies-tropical and hardy. A very temperamental flower, the lily is always “picky” about its surrounding climate with some varieties preferring the cool northern latitudes of Alaska and Canada, blooming only during the day while the more well known ones indigenous to warm tropical climates-this variety blooms both day and night and is fully fragrant. The Water Lily seed has an amazing fertility range with seeds remaining plantable and viable, surviving for up to 2000 years. The Larkspur is a clustering blue garden flower, gathered in a long fat dolphin shaped shaft upon its lengthy stem. Called Lark’s Heel by Shakespeare the clusters draw butterflies and bumble bees when in bloom like magnets. It is a beautiful flower for arrangements and grows throughout Northern America but is also toxic to farm animals when ingested in very large amounts (as with free grazing) so no tossing it on anyone’s salad even though it would take a truckload to make a human even sick-just look and enjoy its beauty! Unique fact: though it is toxic on a level-it also is/was used in many cultures to counteract the poison of a scorpion sting allowing the victim to escape the local muscular paralysis that accompanied the sting. The Larkspur symbolically means from Roman times an open heart and ardent attachment.
