At the "equinox"; "equi-" from "equal", and "nox" from the Latin word for "night". The equinoxes are generally on March 21 and September 21 each year, plus or minus one day because of the cycle of leap years. The US Naval Observatory has a web site for "Earth's Seasons" at which you can see the precise times of the solstices and equinoxes.
