Spring Begins History

The beginning of Spring in Finland (Northern Hemisphere) traditionally marks the end of winter and the beginning of a season that signifies longer days and warmer temperatures. The first day of spring is also known as the vernal equinox. This marks the day that the sun's path is directly over the equator. This day also contains an equal amount of daytime and nighttime.

Spring occurs annually either on March 19th or March 20th.

March equinox Facts

The First Day of Spring is also called the Vernal Equinox.
The Vernal Equinox is the day of the year where there are exactly 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of dark in the Northern Hemisphere.
On the vernal equinox, the Sun crosses the equator into the Northern Hemisphere. This has the effect of making the days longer in the Northern Hemisphere until the Summer Solstice occurs.
The Egyptian Great Sphinx points directly at the Sun on this day.
