Spring equinox is here. Is the vernal equinox significant to your culture?



The vernal equinox or spring equinox as it is also known marks the scientific beginning of springtime.

An equinox occurs twice a year, when the tilt of the Earth's axis is inclined neither away from nor towards the Sun, the center of the Sun being in the same plane as the Earth's equator.


For many cultures, the arrival of Spring is time for celebration.

    Not the equinox itself, but rather the Sunday after the first full moon that follows it. That is Resurrection Sunday.

    Sadly, yes the vernal equinox is a time for Americans to humiliate themselves.
