The meaning of the autumnal equinox

1. Autumnal Equinox, the sixteenth solar term in the twenty-four solar terms, usually falls on September 22 or 23 every year.
2. The Autumnal Equinox means "equal", and on this day the sun shines directly on the Earth's equator, making day and night equally divided over the 24 hours, 12 hours each.
3. "Chun Qiu Fan Lu" records: "The 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." In astronomy, the Autumnal Equinox is regarded as the end of summer and the beginning of autumn.
4. In ancient my country, the Autumnal Equinox was divided into three stages: "The first stage is when the thunder begins to subside; the second stage is when the hibernating insects begin to hatch; the third stage is when the water begins to dry up." The ancients believed that thunder was caused by the abundance of yang energy. After the autumnal equinox, yin energy began to flourish, so thunder no longer occurred.
