How we source these
Public holidays are taken from official government sources for each country and cover national holidays only. The United States, Canada and Australia all have significant state and provincial holidays that are not shown, and India’s system of state, optional and restricted holidays means only three days are observed nationwide. Where a government has not yet published a year, we say so rather than guess. Always check the official source for the country concerned rather than relying on this alone.
February 2nd through history
Selkirk taken off his island; London spends a penny
On February 2nd 1709 the privateer Duke, under Woodes Rogers, took a bearded Scotsman off an uninhabited island in the Juan Fernandez group in the Pacific. Alexander Selkirk, a shoemaker’s son from Lower Largo in Fife, had been put ashore at his own insistence four years and four months earlier after quarrelling with his captain about the state of the ship. Daniel Defoe published Robinson Crusoe ten years later.
The first public flushing lavatory in London opened at 95 Fleet Street on February 2nd 1852, fitted out by the Brighton plumber George Jennings, whose closets had drawn 827,280 paying visitors at the Great Exhibition the year before. A ladies’ equivalent followed on the 11th in Bedford Street. Despite handbills and an advertisement in The Times, 58 men used the Fleet Street rooms in the first month, and 24 women the Bedford Street ones, and they closed within six.
Stalingrad ended on February 2nd 1943, when the last German troops in the ruins of the city surrendered after five months of fighting that turned the war in the east.
Candlemas falls on February 2nd, forty days after Christmas, and is one of the Scottish quarter days, when rents fell due. The old weather rhyme holds that if Candlemas be fair and bright, winter will have another flight.
Born on February 2nd: star sign, birthstone and birth flower
James Joyce and Shakira — both named above — share this star sign with everyone else born in the same window.
Star sign
Aquarius — an Air sign ruled by Saturn (traditional) / Uranus (modern), symbolised by the Water-Bearer.
Birthstone
Amethyst for February.
Birth flower
Violet (primary), also Primrose — most commonly cited sources agree on violet as the main February flower.
None of this is settled fact in the way the history above is — zodiac dates, birthstones and birth flowers are conventions rather than laws, and different sources hedge them slightly differently. The birthstone is the most standardised of the three (set by the trade in 1912 and revised since); the birth flower is the least, resting on Victorian tradition rather than any governing body.

A small, themed starting point rather than a shopping list — amethyst for the stone, Aquarius for the sign, and the sky itself on the day.
