The Spring Equinox refers to the time when the sun is between 0° and 15° of the ecliptic longitude, that is, the period from the Spring Equinox to the day before Qingming Festival, which is approximately between March 20 and April 5 in the Gregorian calendar. In ancient times, the Spring Equinox was also called "the middle of the day", "the division of day and night", "the moon of mid-spring", and "the rising equinox". The significance of the Spring Equinox is, firstly, that the day and night are equally divided, 12 hours each; secondly, the Spring Equinox is in the three months of spring (from the Beginning of Spring to the Beginning of Summer), dividing the spring season equally.

What is the meaning of the Spring Equinox?

The day of the spring equinox is when the day and night are equal. In ancient times in our country, the Spring Equinox also symbolizes the equal division of spring. On the day of the vernal equinox every year, the sun moves to the ecliptic longitude of 0°, almost directly on the equator, so the length of day and night around the world is almost the same on this day.
On the day of the Spring Equinox, the sun is almost directly above the equator, and the day and night are almost equal in length around the world. This means that the Spring Equinox represents the fact that the day and night are almost equal in length. In ancient times, the Spring Equinox also meant dividing spring equally.
Every year on the Spring Equinox, people hold a memorial ceremony to worship the "Sun God". This "Sun God" refers to an ancient Emperor Yan. Because he provided people with enough food to fill their stomachs, people would worship him on this day to express their gratitude and their yearning for a better life.
