Is the autumnal equinox the beginning of autumn?

The autumnal equinox does not mean the beginning of autumn, but the middle of autumn.
Autumnal Equinox, "fen" means "equal division" or "half". In addition to the meaning of equal division of autumn, it also means equal day and night.
"Collected Explanations of the 72 Solar Terms in the Lunar Calendar": "In the middle of August...the explanation can be found in the Spring Equinox." "Fen" means the time when day and night are equal. Just like the vernal equinox, on this day the sun shines directly on the earth's equator, and the day and night are equal. In the book "Spring and Autumn Fanlu·Yin Yang Out and In, Parts 1 and 2" it says: "Autumnal Equinox is when Yin and Yang are half and half, so the day and night are equal and the cold and heat are balanced." The Autumnal Equinox is exactly in the middle of the 90 days of autumn, which means "equally dividing the autumn colors", so it is called "Autumnal Equinox".
On the day of the autumnal equinox, the point of direct sunlight reaches 180° of ecliptic longitude (the autumnal equinox), almost directly hitting the Earth's equator, and the day and night are equal in length everywhere in the world (without considering the refraction of sunlight by the atmosphere and the morning and evening shadows). After the autumnal equinox, the sun's direct point continues to move from the equator to the southern hemisphere, and the days begin to become shorter and the nights longer in all parts of the northern hemisphere, that is, the day begins to be shorter than the night within a day; the opposite is true in the southern hemisphere. Therefore, the autumnal equinox is also called the autumnal equinox. At the North and South Poles, on the day of the autumnal equinox, the sun stays above the horizon all day.
