Hi

--》The equinox in the Northern hemisphere occurs twice a year around spring and autumn.

--》It is the time the plane of Earth’s equator passes through the centre of the sun’s disc.

--》The solstice marks summer and winter seasons.

--》It is the times when the sun reaches its highest or lowest point in the sky at noon.

--》This marks the longest and shortest days.

--》The spring equinox usually takes place around March 20, marking the beginning of spring, when days are longer than nighttime.

--》The autumn equinox marks the start of autumn, as night becomes longer than the day. This usually takes place around September 22.

--》The solstice also occurs twice a year, but in the form of summer and winter.

--》Summer solstice occurs around the 21 June in the Northern Hemisphere, the longest day of the year.

--》During this time, the northern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun, resulting in increased sunlight and warmer temperatures.

--》At the winter solstice, the sun will be at its lowest point.
