Four fascinating facts about February babies

If you were born in February or know someone who was, you might be surprised to learn that people born in this month have some unique traits and fun facts associated with their birth. 

They’re more likely to be artists

Studies suggest that people born in February tend to have creative and unconventional minds. 

A study published in the Journal of Social Sciences found that people born in winter months, including February, are more likely to be original thinkers and embrace non-traditional career paths. 

Famous February-born creative minds include artist Jackson Pollock and inventor Thomas Edison. 

They have two unique birthstones 

February babies have the beautiful amethyst as their birthstone, a gemstone known for its deep purple hue and association with wisdom, clarity, and calmness.

But they also get an alternative birthstone - bloodstone, a dark green gem with red speckles that has been linked to strength and protection. 

Both stones symbolise qualities that make February-born people stand out: intelligence, resilience, and inner strength.  

They could be very athletic

Research suggests that babies born in the winter months, including February, may have a physical advantage when it comes to sports. 

A study from the International Journal of Sports Medicine found that people born in winter tend to have greater strength and stamina, possibly due to the conditions their mothers experienced during pregnancy. 

This might explain why many top athletes, including Cristiano Ronaldo and Michael Jordan, were born in February.  

They have rare zodiac signs

February-born individuals fall under two zodiac signs: Aquarius (Jan 20th – Feb 18th) and Pisces (Feb 19th – Mar 20th). 

Aquarius is known for being independent, intellectual, and visionary, while Pisces is famous for its deep emotional intelligence and artistic nature. 

Both signs are unique and relatively rare compared to some others, making February babies even more special in the zodiac world.
