Happy Autumnal Equinox! 🍂🍁
Here’s to cooler days, colorful leaves, crisp evenings, and all things fall! Happy first day of autumn! 🎃☕🍎
The fall equinox is Tuesday, when light and darkness split the day evenly. It marks the beginning of fall for the Northern Hemisphere and the beginning of spring in the Southern Hemisphere.
