The sun reaches its highest point, bringing the longest day and shortest night of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. Autumn (Autumnal Equinox) Starts: Typically around September 22–23 .

This system is more closely tied to actual agricultural conditions and temperature changes in East Asia.

September 1 to November 30 (Transition period of cooling temperatures)

You’ll notice that the astronomical dates are not fixed (e.g., “June 20 or 21”). This fluctuation occurs because a tropical year (the time it takes Earth to orbit the sun) is actually about 365.2422 days long. To correct for this, we add a leap day every four years, which shifts the precise moment of the equinoxes and solstices slightly.

If you live in Australia, New Zealand, South America, or southern Africa, the seasons are completely reversed because the Earth is tilted on its axis. When the Northern Hemisphere tilts toward the sun, the Southern Hemisphere tilts away.

Occur in spring and autumn when the Sun shines directly over the equator, making day and night roughly equal in length.

This is the warmest period of the year with the longest daylight hours. Autumn (Fall)

Based on the position of the Earth relative to the Sun. They begin and end on equinoxes and solstices.
