Tomorrow, September 22, the autumn equinox will come. From Wednesday evening, 22:21 Greek time, it will come in the northern hemisphere, where Greece is located. At the same time, spring will come in the Southern Hemisphere.
At the equator, night and day have almost the same duration. Then, in the northern hemisphere, the day will become shorter and the night longer, until the latter reaches its zenith at the winter solstice in December.
In fact, in Athens, the “equality” of day and night will come in a few days, since on the day of the autumnal equinox it occurs only in places located directly on the equator. In other areas, located above or below the equator, the astronomical phenomenon occurs with a difference of several days. Thus, in Athens, which is located about 38 ° north of the equator, the equality of day and night occurs after about four days. From the second half of September 22, autumn officially comes to Greece.
The equinox and solstice phenomena occur twice a year, marking the change of the seasons. Since ancient times, they were glorified by the peoples, people gave them a certain mythical meaning.

What is Equinox? Astronomical concept
The time when the center of the Sun in its apparent movement along the ecliptic crosses the celestial equator is called the equinox. At this time, the Earth is in such a position in relation to the Sun when both hemispheres, from the equator to the poles, heat up relatively equally. This happens twice a year: on the day of the vernal and autumnal equinoxes.
Spring comes when the Sun moves from the southern hemisphere of the celestial sphere to the northern one, usually on March 20 or 21. The autumnal equinox occurs on September 22 or 23, when the Sun passes from the northern hemisphere to the southern one. On these days, for all places on Earth (excluding the regions of the Earth’s poles), day is almost equal to night.
