With so much going on in life, especially as we balance responsibilities, it’s fun to enjoy a bit of trivia and not take things too seriously. So, for this Saturday, I’m offering some fun and surprising trivia to keep things light!
Did you know that September’s birthstone, sapphire, symbolizes wisdom and virtue? And here’s a quirky fact for all the space nerds out there: The first full moon of September is called the Harvest Moon, but if the full moon happens later, it’s called the Corn Moon.
On the pop culture front, in 1991, Nirvana’s iconic album Nevermind was released on September 23, marking a turning point in music history. Plus, for all you Stephen King fans, did you know the main character in 11/22/63 time travels to September 9, 1958, in an attempt to stop JFK’s assassination?
And while we’re on the topic of historical events, how wild is it that the first televised presidential debate between JFK and Nixon took place on September 26, 1960?
This weekend, take a moment to quiz your friends and family or just soak up some quirky facts. Whether you’re talking about history, music, or even astrology (hello, Virgos and Libras!), trivia has a way of making us appreciate the little things. It’s a reminder that life doesn’t always need to be about serious reflection—sometimes, it’s about enjoying the random, fun knowledge we pick up along the way.
