About September Equinox

The September Equinox marks the moment when the sun crosses the celestial equator, signaling the official beginning of autumn in France. On this day, day and night are approximately equal in length across the globe. It is a seasonal occurrence observed for its astronomical significance rather than as a public holiday or traditional celebration.
