VERNAL EQUINOX

The Vernal Equinox in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia was on Monday, 23 September 2019 at 5:50 pm AEST. On the two equinoxes every year the Sun shines directly on the Equator and the length of day and night is nearly equal – but not exactly. The Vernal Equinox marks the moment the Sun crosses the celestial equator – the imaginary line in the sky above the Earth’s equator – from North to South in September (in the Southern Hemisphere), marking the beginning of astronomical Spring.

  1. What a pretty and interesting collage! We also marked the Vernal Equinox, but since we live in the western US, it was the first day of fall.
