September is literally named as the seventh(septima) month, and even by modern counting, she's born in the latter part of it, BUT, by some earlier calender variants, September ended with the Autumn equinox, which is around 21st-22nd or so, putting her just a few days from the end of the month.

("he" doesn't disqualify in a society that has polyjuice just as one of several ways to shapeshift, not that it's even certain that "he" refers to the same person as the rest of the prophecy; nor is there anything demanding that the "mark" has to have happened at a specific time or in the past)
