August is an English name meaning "exalted, venerable" from the Latin augustus or possibly from the Latin augere meaning "to increase". It is a time of harvest and abundance, symbolizing prosperity and the fruition of hard work. For me, it is vibrant, warm, and welcoming—the moment when you smell the change in the air from Summer to Autumn.
The month of August was called Sextilis until the name was changed to honor Augustus Caesar.
