What does the Autumnal Equinox mark?
In the northern hemisphere, the autumnal equinox marks the first day of fall. An equinox happens twice a year, when the sun shines directly on the equator and the length of day and night is nearly equal.
An equinox occurs on the same day at the same time in both hemispheres?
Correct. The March equinox, which is typically March 21 but can vary by a day either way, is the spring equinox in the northern hemisphere, because the Sun us rising into the northern hemisphere. At that very same moment, it is the autumnal equinox in the southern hemisphere, because as the Sun is moving INTO the northern hemisphere, it is moving away from the southern hemisphere. The September 21 equinox sees the Sun moving south of the equator, so the spring equinox in the south, while it is the autumnal equinox in the North.

Where is the sun in the autumnal equinox?
Exactly straight over the equator. It's a tiny bit north of the equator just before the Autumnal Equinox, and a tiny bit south of the equator just after it. In other words, the sun is 'moving' south. At the Vernal Equinox, it's also precisely over the equator, but 'moving' north.

What time of year does the cirle of illumination pass through the North and South Poles?
The circle of illumination passes through both the north and south poles only twice each year, on the spring and autumn equinox. The spring equinox occurs around March 20 and the autumn equinox occurs around September 22.
Is the north end of Earths axis tilted away from the sun during an equinox?
During an equinox, neither the North nor the South end of Earth's axis is tilted away from the Sun. This is because during an equinox, the tilt of Earth's axis is perpendicular to the Sun's rays, causing equal illumination of both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres.
What latitude is the sun directly overhead at noon on the equinoxes and solstice's?

What are the places where the ecliptic crosses the equator are called?
The places where the ecliptic crosses the equator are called the vernal equinox (where the Sun crosses from south to north) and the autumnal equinox (where the Sun crosses from north to south). These are the points where day and night are equal in length, marking the beginning of spring and autumn, respectively.
