SPRING-AUTUMN EQUINOX 2012

The September Equinox 2012:
September 22,

14:49 (or 2.49pm) UTC (Greenwich time)  12.49AM Sept 23rd Melbourne Australia

There are two equinoxes every year – in September and March – when the sun shines directly on the equator and the length of day and night is nearly equal. Seasons are opposite on either side of the equator, so the equinox in September is also known as the "autumnal (fall) equinox" in the northern hemisphere. However, in the southern hemisphere, it's known as the "spring (vernal) equinox".
*******************
Why is it called equinox?

On the equinox, night and day are nearly exactly the same length – 12 hours – all over the world. This is the reason it's called an "equinox", derived from Latin, meaning "equal night".

However, even if this is widely accepted, it isn't entirely true. In reality equinoxes don't have exactly 12 hours of daylight

The September equinox occurs the moment the sun crosses the celestial equator – the imaginary line in the sky above the Earth’s equator – from north to south.

This happens either on September 22, 23, or 24 every year. On any other day of the year, the Earth's axis tilts a little away from or towards the Sun. But on the two equinoxes, the Earth's axis tilts neither away from nor towards the Sun.

BLUE MOON 31st August 2012

A blue-coloured moon is rare. 

Folklore has defined two different types of Blue Moons. 

A Blue Moon can be the second full moon in a month. 

It can be the third of four full moons in a season. 

The full moon of August 31, 2012 will be considered a 

Blue Moon.

It is now Spring time in the Southern Hemisphere

and Autumn in the Northern Hemisphere.

Enjoy your Seasons.
