The vernal equinox occurs in March and marks the start of spring in the Northern Hemisphere, while the autumnal equinox occurs in September and marks the start of fall. During these equinoxes, day and night are approximately equal in length all over the world.
The equinoxes are commonly referred to as the "vernal equinox" and the "autumnal equinox." The vernal equinox occurs around March 20-21, marking the start of spring in the Northern Hemisphere, while the autumnal equinox occurs around September 22-23, signaling the beginning of fall. Some cultures may also refer to them by names associated with seasonal changes, but these two names are the most widely recognized.
The places where the Sun crosses the equator are called the equinoxes. There are two equinoxes each year: the vernal (spring) equinox in March and the autumnal equinox in September. During these times, day and night are approximately equal in length all over the world.
