20th of March – Vernal Equinox

Vernal Equinox is a very special day. It is the middle of the season when the Sun crosses the equator in the sky equally, and thus the day and the night last the same period. It is also known as the Spring Equinox, as usually after the 20th of March the weather improves, the temperature rises, we see more sun, and nature starts to bloom.

In many ancient cultures, this was a very special day. Nowadays people don’t tend to pay much attention to it, but a long time ago everyone celebrated the new beginning, as the winter was stepping aside. Maya even builds huge pyramids and made bright festive in March to please the gods and to ask them to bring fertility to the lands.

The Vernal Equinox doesn’t always happen on the 20th of March. There were years when it was on the 21st or on the 19th. This happens due to the variety of the length of the year. Yet, each time the day and the night last exactly 12 hours.

Some people have funny beliefs connected to this day. For example, they think that only on the Vernal Equinox it is possible to place an egg on its end, and if someone fails, that is because it was done not in the very middle of the day. However, if you are skillful enough, you can make this trick any day of the year.
