Equinox

Equinox Means "Equal Night"
Translated literally, equinox means "equal night." Because the Sun is positioned above the equator, day and night are about equal in length all over the world during the equinoxes. Spring equinox occurs each year on Sept 22 or 23,in 2011,it will be on Sept 23 at 09:05 A.M. This date will mark the autumnal equinox in the Northern Hemisphere and the Spring equinox in the Southern Hemisphere.
