The seasons are reversed.
When it is spring or summer in the northern hemisphere, it is the autumn (fall) or the winter in Australia.
This is caused by the northern part of the world being tipped the opposite way (towards or away) from the sun to Australia.
The seasons in Australia and other countries in the Southern Hemisphere are reversed from those in the Northern Hemisphere. When it is summer in the Southern Hemisphere, it is winter in the Northern Hemisphere, and so forth. For example, the Australian summer starts in December, while winter begins in July.
Being in the Southern Hemisphere doesn't really affect Australia's seasons. It has all the seasons that the northern hemisphere has. It just has them at different times of the year, at the opposite time.
Because the Earth is tilted by about 23.5°. During the summer months, a hemisphere is tilted towards the sun, but at the same time it is winter in the other hemisphere, because it is tilted away from the sun. As Australia is in the southern hemisphere, its seasons are opposite to the seasons of countries in the northern hemisphere.

The seasons are not reversed in Australia. They still follow the same order - summer, autumn, winter and spring. The difference is that, when it is summer in Australia it is winter in the northern hemisphere, and vice versa. This is because of the position of the sun in relation to the Earth. To put it in the simplest terms, because the Earth is tilted on its axis, during the southern hemisphere's summer, it is closer to the sun than the northern hemisphere is, so receives more heat. This is reversed during the northern hemisphere's summer.
The seasons are reversed in the Southern hemisphere as compared to the Northern. In the South, it is 21 June.
Because Earths axis is tilted.
During northern hemisphere summer the sun is in the northern sky in the southern hemisphere. Our sun in the northern hemisphere is almost always in the southern sky unless your south of the tropic of cancer so this is why you have to reverse the sundials if you move to the southern hemisphere.
when the northern hemisphere is tilted toward the sun, the southern hemisphere is away for this reason the seasons are reversed in the southern hemisphere.
Each hemisphere has cold winters and hot summers. This is because the seasons are reversed. E.g: In America (Northern Hemisphere) their Christmas is in winter and is very cold, but in Australia (Southern Hemisphere) their Christmas is in Summer and is very hot. See even though they happen at the same time they have completely different climates - the seasons are just reversed.
counter-clock wise as the Coriolis force is reversed in the southern hemisphere.
The seasons are reversed, AND the flow of water is reversed. When flushing a toilet in the northern hemisphere, the water goes down clockwise. When flushing a toilet in the southern hemisphere, the water goes down counterclockwise.
When it is winter in the US it is summer in Australia. When it is spring in the US it is autumn in Australia. The seasons are always alternating like this between the northern and southern hemispheres. The starting times for the various seasons are the same in both hemispheres: The solstices mark the beginning of winter for one hemisphere and summer in the other; the equinoxes mark the beginning of spring or of autumn, depending on the hemisphere.
In short, because of the axial tilt of the earth. In May - July, the northern hemisphere is tilted more towards the sun and gets more sunlight at a more direct angle. The reverse is true for the southern hemisphere. In November - January, the situation is reversed; the southern hemisphere gets more direct sunlight.
