Equinox are the most unique phenomenon that are experienced in the sky in September and march every year. There is a distinction between the two equinoxes in terms of the position of the sun and equator (September equinox, n.d). The September equinox, the sun tends to cross the equator from from north to south. The event is experienced when the sun is exactly above the earth’s equator from north to south. Astronomers considers the event as the first day of the spring. In addition, it is important to note that the event is occurs during the same period of time over the world but the difference in time will be as a result of time zone (September equinox: All you need to know, 2021). At equinox, the day and night hours are equal and in some parts like northern hemisphere the sun tends to rise late and night is experienced sooner. Equinox is mainly caused by tilting of the earth on it axis and ceaseless orbit around the sun.
