Happy first day of spring! In the Northern Hemisphere, the first day of spring usually falls on March 20th or 21st, known as the vernal equinox. This marks the time when the sun passes directly over the equator and the length of daylight and darkness are roughly equal.

Spring is a season of renewal and growth, as the weather warms up and plants begin to bloom. It’s a time to shake off the winter blues, enjoy the longer days, and embrace new beginnings. Whether you’re spending time outside, cleaning your home, or starting a new project, spring is a great time to refresh and recharge.

The vernal equinox, also known as the spring equinox, is an astronomical event that occurs twice a year, usually on March 20th or 21st in the Northern Hemisphere and September 22nd or 23rd in the Southern Hemisphere. It marks the moment when the sun passes directly over the Earth’s equator, resulting in a nearly equal amount of daylight and darkness all over the world.

During the vernal equinox in the Northern Hemisphere, the tilt of the Earth’s axis is inclined towards the sun, causing the days to become longer and the weather to become warmer. This is why the vernal equinox is commonly associated with the arrival of spring.

The vernal equinox has been celebrated by various cultures and religions for thousands of years. It is considered a time of renewal and rebirth, and is often associated with themes of fertility, growth, and new beginnings. Many cultures hold festivals and rituals to celebrate the vernal equinox, such as the Persian New Year (Nowruz) and the Christian holiday of Easter.
