Overview

The autumnal equinox is the sixteenth of the twenty-four solar terms in the lunar calendar. It is the same day as the spring equinox. On the day of the autumnal equinox, the sun shines almost directly on the equator. After that, the position of direct sunlight moves southward, and the days are shorter and the nights longer in the northern hemisphere. And on this day, there are several special phenomena: the direct point of the sun shines squarely on the equator. When people are at the equator, they will find that no object can find its own shadow. On this day, the sun can be seen at both the North and South Pole at the same time. At the 45th parallel of north latitude, the height of the object is as long as the shadow.
