What time is the autumnal equinox tomorrow, the autumnal equinox in 2022?

The autumnal equinox in 2022 is 9: 3: 3 1 sec on September 23rd. The autumnal equinox is the sixteenth solar term among the twenty-four solar terms and the fourth solar term in autumn.

The autumnal equinox solar terms mean that the golden autumn season of bumper harvest and fragrant fruits has arrived. At this time, the air is crisp in autumn, and the sweet-scented osmanthus is fragrant for ten miles, just as the ancients said, "The sweet-scented osmanthus trees shake, and the fragrance is all over the world."

As a festival reflecting seasonal changes, the autumnal equinox begins when the sun reaches 180 degrees from September 22 to 24 of the Gregorian calendar. It is the sixteenth of the twenty-four solar terms and the fourth in autumn.

Like the vernal equinox, on this day, day and night, cold and heat, yin and yang are equally divided, in a state of balance. The difference is that the spring equinox divides the spring equally. Since the vernal equinox, the days in the northern hemisphere are long, the nights are short and the days are getting longer and longer. The sun is shining and the weather is changing from cold to hot. On the other hand, the autumnal equinox divides autumn equally. Since then, the days in the northern hemisphere are short, the nights are long and the days are short, the yin is getting stronger and the weather is getting colder and colder.

During the autumnal equinox, although the temperature is gradually decreasing and the weather is getting colder and colder, the thick or light autumn colors begin to spread out like a palette, focusing on the yellow and red tones: chrysanthemum, ear of rice, orange, yellow and elegant, full and brilliant; Maple leaves, peppers and persimmons are red, unrestrained, free and easy, and * * are intertwined to create a colorful natural Qiu Jingtu.
