September Equinox 2037

The September Equinox usually falls between September 22 and 23 each year, when the Sun crosses the celestial equator from north to south, opposite to the March Equinox earlier in the year. This is the time when sunlight is evenly distributed between the hemispheres, making day and night nearly 12 hours long everywhere.

On this day, the Sun shines directly over the equator, balancing sunlight between the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. After this point, the Northern Hemisphere begins to receive less sunlight, while the Southern Hemisphere gradually enters its warmer season.

This marks the first day of autumn in the Northern Hemisphere and the first day of spring in the Southern Hemisphere.

Just like the March Equinox, on this day the Sun rises exactly in the East and sets exactly in the West, making it an ideal time to observe cardinal directions naturally.
