Solstice is the longest day of the year. Exuinox is the shortest day of the year.
Summer is the hottest time of the year. Winter the coldest time of year.
This temperature difference is a result of the diferent lengths of the day. Solstice is around the middle of summer then, just as equinox is around the middle of winter.
Of course there are other things to consider - living near the equator or further away changes everything to do with seasons and even soltice/equinox. In the Southern Hemisphere seasons are all reversed too.
Solstices and Equinoxes are points in the orbit of the Earth around the sun, hence directly related to seasons
No, March 21st is not a solstice; it marks the vernal equinox in the Northern Hemisphere, when day and night are approximately equal in length. The solstices occur around June 21st (summer solstice) and December 21st (winter solstice), marking the longest and shortest days of the year, respectively. The equinoxes, including the one in March, signify the change of seasons.

Early February is between winter solstice & spring equinox.
Seasonal equinoxes and solstices are both astronomical events that mark significant points in the Earth's orbit around the Sun, signaling changes in seasons. The equinoxes occur when day and night are approximately equal in length, while the solstices represent the longest and shortest days of the year. Both events are crucial in understanding seasonal changes and are celebrated in various cultures around the world. Additionally, they both reflect the tilt of the Earth's axis and its relationship to the Sun.
The equinoxes and solstices are the first days of seasons. On the equinoxes, night and day is the same length. On the solstices, the day is either the longest or the shortest day of the year, depending on which solstice it is and which hemisphere you are in,

The summer solstice in June and the winter solstice in December are the times during the year when the daylight hours are the longest (summer) and the shortest (winter). These dates are used to mark the official change of the seasons along with the equinoxes.
The four days that separate the seasons are; March 20th or 21st ~ Vernal Equinox, December 22nd or 23rd~ Winter Solstice, September 22nd or 23rd~ Autumnal Equinox, and June 21st or 22nd~ Summer Solstice.
A solstice is the longest or shortest days of the year. (December 21 is the winter solstice or shortest day of the year, June 21st is the longest or the summer solstice) Equinox is when the day and night are equal amounts of time.
No, the solstices and equinoxes mark the beginnings of the four seasons.
summer and winter
The two seasons that begin with solstices rather than equinoxes are summer and winter.

No relationship at all.
