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.
March 8th through history
A day for women, and the last Stuart queen
International Women’s Day is kept on March 8th because of a strike. On February 23rd 1917 by the Russian calendar — March 8th by ours — women textile workers in Petrograd walked out over bread and conditions, and within a week the Tsar had gone. The date was formalised by the United Nations in 1977 and is now a public holiday in a good many countries.
Anne became queen on March 8th 1702, on the death of William III, who never fully recovered after his horse stumbled on a molehill in the Home Park at Hampton Court and threw him. Jacobites afterwards raised their glasses to the little gentleman in black velvet. Anne was the last Stuart to reign, and the first sovereign of a united Great Britain after the Union of 1707.
Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 left Kuala Lumpur for Beijing on March 8th 2014 with 239 people aboard and turned off course. Despite the largest search in the history of aviation, the aircraft has never been found.
The Wind in the Willows began as bedtime stories and letters to a small boy, written by a man who spent his working life at the Bank of England and rose to be its Secretary: Kenneth Grahame, born in Edinburgh on March 8th 1859. The actress Lynn Redgrave was born in 1943 and the musician Gary Numan in 1958.
Born on March 8th: star sign, birthstone and birth flower
Kenneth Grahame and Lynn Redgrave — both named above — share this star sign with everyone else born in the same window.
Star sign
Pisces — a Water sign ruled by Jupiter (traditional) / Neptune (modern), symbolised by Two Fish.
Birthstone
traditionally Bloodstone, or Aquamarine in the modern list for March.
Birth flower
Daffodil (primary), also Jonquil — most commonly cited sources agree on daffodil as the main March 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.
