The Spring and Fall Equinoxes are the first days of Spring and Fall.

In the Southern Hemisphere, this is not the case.

The Spring equinox occurs around the 21st or 22nd of September, not the first day of Spring, which is September 1.

The Autumn equinox occurs around the 21st or 22nd of March, not the first day of Autumn, which is March 1.
