4 Exceptional Gifts for a May Born
Since childhood, I always wait for the month of May. It is the time of year when everything around me is colorful (especially dominated by green). The transition from spring to summer is amazing. The fifth month in the Gregorian calendar represents the renewal and new beginning. As its spring in May in Northern Hemisphere, you can experience the beauty and calmness of green while in Southern Hemisphere, its autumn. So in both the cases, lucky people born in this month are bestowed with amazing natural scenic options to celebrate their birthday. Whether you or any of your loved ones is born in May, there has never been a scarcity of gift options to select. However, choosing something that connects you with your birth month is incredible.
From dramatic emerald jewelry to lovely bouquet of May flowers and anything that suits the personality of a May born, you have plenty of presents to choose. Even though my birthday falls in April, I never mind receiving something that symbolizes the gorgeous time of spring or summer.
Emerald Jewelry:
Who can resist a gift of emeralds? At least I can’t. Emerald is the birthstone of May. The lush green of emeralds represents love, peace and eternity. It is also a symbol of forever spring and youth because of its remarkable green color. Giving a woman something that denotes eternal youth is a wise choice. A woman can never grow old at heart so how could her style be! Like every birthstone, emeralds do have some myths and legends. It is one of the oldest known gemstones to humankind and has been a favorite of royals across the globe. With beautiful looks, soothing hues and exceptional significance, a gift of emerald jewelry is perfect for a May born. And even though you are born in any other month, you can still enjoy this charming gem. I have an emerald ring that is one of my style staples. If you are new to jewelry thing, you can start from simple studs or a solitaire pendant or a ring.
Fragrance of May:
A bouquet of May flowers is a lovely choice but I would prefer the fragrance in a different way because flowers don’t last for long. Perfumes are another great gift for occasions like birthdays and anniversaries. As Lily of the Valley and Hawthorn are the birth flowers for May, choose a perfume with any of the two fragrances. It’s really easy to find a suitable one and a May born will definitely love spring running out of the bottle. Diorissimo by Christian Dior, L.I.L.Y by Stella McCartney and Muguet Blanc by Van Cleef & Arpels are few options I found well to gift.
Bonsai:
A bonsai is a lovely way to remain close to nature. Like flowers, tree(s) also symbolize various characters of a personality. For example, Ash, Chestnut and Poplar are the trees for the month of May, and each of them represents some attributes of a May born personality. Additionally, they also signify different attributes. Chestnut tree represents a very long life, and said to have the ability to harmonize with ancient wisdom. Similarly, Poplar tree signifies deep courage and faith, and said to help in reaching for the heavens. We know it’s difficult to plant a tree with that little space available these days. But with a bonsai, anyone can live the fantasy of a green and oxygen rich space in the house. Bonsais are easy to get and maintain, require little space and can easily be shifted anywhere in the house. They are also lovely to decorate the living area or the terrace or balcony or even dining space. Planting and caring for trees also signifies more wealth and riches.
A Gift of Music:
Music is amazing. It’s a healer and a constructive force of nature. For someone born in May, classical music is very apt to attune natural beauty. With everything so pleasing around you, the melodious tunes can simply elevate the mood and distress mind and soul. Earlier, it was believed that only classical music helps in healing but various studies in recent years have proven that listening to your favorite composition has tremendously positive effects on overall health. These days I am regularly listening to Mozart. Every night before I sleep, I listen to his symphonies at low volume and I couldn’t believe I am getting sound sleeps. I really feel wonderful, energetic and relaxed. After this experiment with music, I can assure that a music DVD is a wonderful and healthy gift.
Conclusion:
With these four versatile gifts, you can definitely make the occasion more memorable. Individually or paid with other options like clothing, accessories, gift cards and decorative pieces, each of these gifts for a May born is perfect to cherish the special day and your association with them.
