July birth flower: the water lily
purity of heart
The water lily means purity of heart and rising above what you came from, since it roots in mud and opens clean on the surface. July's other flower, the larkspur, means an open heart and strong attachment, with each colour shading it: pink for fickleness, white for happiness, purple for first love.
If you were born in July
July people often carry a calm that has clearly been earned rather than inherited. The water lily suits them for the obvious reason: it opens every morning regardless of what it is standing in.
