March 20 (UTC) - the same date is the "vernal equinox" in the Southern Hemisphere.
What else can I help you with?
What two seasons do the equinox occur?
The "Vernal Equinox" is the beginning of "Spring" and the end of "Winter". The Autumnal Equinox is the beginning of "Autumn" or "Fall" and the end of "Summer". In the Northern Hemisphere, the Vernal Equinox is in March and the Autumnal Equinox in September each year.
Is the autumnal equinox at the same time every year?
No, it moves slightly forwards and backwards in time, but within a 12 hour period due to the Earth's wobble that is separate from the Procession of the Earth's poles. So in some years it can occur on the 20th of September, and other years on the 21st.
When is the autumn exquinox?
The Autumnal Equinox will occur in the northern hemisphere, this year on September 22nd at 10:49am EDT.

When do the solstice and equinox occur in the southern hemisphere?
The summer solstice occurs around December 21st, while the winter solstice occurs around June 21st in the southern hemisphere. The vernal equinox occurs around September 22nd, and the autumnal equinox occurs around March 20th in the southern hemisphere.
When was the date of vernal equinox in 1978?
the vernal equinox is always on the 21 of march. that's the day I'm righting this. _______________________________ The equinoxes occur on March 21 and September 21, plus or minus one day because of the cycle of leap years. In the northern hemisphere, the vernal equinox is in March, and the autumnal equinox is in September; in the southern hemisphere, it's reversed. In 1978, the vernal equinox in the northern hemisphere was March 20, 1978 at 5: 10 PM GMT.
Exact time to the second of the vernal equinox?
The exact time of the vernal equinox varies from year to year. This year, the March equinox (the vernal equinox in the northern hemisphere, the autumnal equinox in the southern hemisphere) will occur on March 20, 2010 at 17:32 GMT.

Do equinoxes occur in both hemispheres at the same time?
Yes, equinoxes occur simultaneously in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. During an equinox, the sun is positioned directly above the equator, resulting in nearly equal day and night lengths across the globe. This phenomenon happens twice a year, around March 20 (vernal equinox) and September 23 (autumnal equinox). Thus, both hemispheres experience the equinox at the same moment.
Which will occur in December an Equinox or Solstice?
The December Solstice occurs in December. It marks the shortest day and longest night of the year in the Northern Hemisphere and the longest day and shortest night in the Southern Hemisphere. The Equinox occurs around March and September when day and night are of equal length.
When are there equal hours of daylight and night?
Equal hours of daylight and sunlight occur on a day known as the Equinox. There are two of these days every year - a vernal Equinox (in the spring), and an autumnal Equinox (in the fall).
