The Spring Equinox is a special day when day and night are almost equal in length all over the world. It usually falls around March 20th or 21st. This day marks the beginning of spring in the northern hemisphere. The sun's rays shine directly on the equator, bringing more warmth and longer daylight hours. It's a time when nature wakes up, flowers start to bloom, and the earth is filled with new life. Many cultures celebrate this day as a symbol of renewal and balance.
