- Happy Vernal Equinox -
beginning of spring in Earth's northern hemisphere
beginning of autumn in Earth's southern hemisphere
Along with dawn, dusk, and phases of the moon, Vernal Equinox (beginning
of spring) and the Autumnal Equinox (beginning of autumn) are among the
few truly universal events observed and celebrated on this planet, and
not just by humans. After all, who hasn't felt like howling at the moon
now and then or,
sometimes, wake to see early rays of morning
light? So today is the Vernal Equinox. For the one moment sunlight
crosses the celestial equator moving from south to north, day and night
are of equal duration the world over. Have a lovely day, better yet, have an ordinary day. I don't know about you but these strange days I find myself longing for nothing more than an ordinary day.

To ordinary days!
(until, of course, it gets too boring.)
As always: wheee! roundy round we go. Why not.
I'm glad you like timeanddate. There is so much cool stuff there. It's one of my go-to places. Woo-hoo. Around we go.
