About First Day of Spring

The first day of Spring 2027 (the Vernal Equinox) is on Saturday, March 20th. Day and night are nearly equal in length, marking the astronomical start of spring. Expect blooming flowers, warmer temperatures, and longer days as the Northern Hemisphere tilts toward the Sun.

History & Significance

The Vernal Equinox has been celebrated across cultures for millennia as a symbol of renewal and rebirth. Ancient Persians celebrate Nowruz (New Year) on the equinox, while the Japanese mark the occasion with Shunbun no Hi. Many Easter and Passover traditions are tied to the spring equinox. The word "vernal" comes from the Latin for "spring."
