People who were persecuted by the Romans Flower of Saint Senna
Since ancient times, Christianity has had the habit of connecting saints with specific flowers. This is due to the fact that when the church commemorates the saints, they often decorate the altar with blooming flowers! In medieval Catholic monasteries, various flowers were planted like a garden center. Over time, the church combined the 366 days of saints with different flowers to form the so-called floral calendar. At that time, most of the monasteries were located in southern Europe, which had a Mediterranean climate and was very suitable for growing flowers and plants. Aster, a plant belonging to the Asteraceae family, was chosen to worship Saint Senna, who was persecuted by the Romans. She was martyred in anger after rejecting the marriage proposal of Dioctianus' nephew Maximianus.
The birthday flower of August 11th - Aster flower language: Chastity
The saint commemorated by the aster is the beautiful Saint Senna. She refused to marry the nephew of the Roman King Dioctianus (not to marry pagans), and she was martyred in anger. Therefore, its flower language is "chastity". Anyone born on this day will always have a consistent attitude towards relationships. Even if the person you fall in love with is not very happy, he will feel very warm. But there is just too much pressure, making falling in love a burden. It should be done in moderation and everything should be left to chance without forcing it.
