∙ 11y agoNo, the autumnal and vernal equinoxes are the days in September and March respectively in the northern hemisphere and March and September respectively in the Southern Hemisphere when the direction of light from the sun is perpendicular to Earth's rotational axis, resulting in just over 12 hours of daylight worldwide. The word equinox is derived from the Latin words meaning equal night.
