This week marks the first day of spring!
The spring equinox falls on Wednesday, March 20, 2019, at 5:58 P.M. EDT.
There will be a FULL MOON on the Spring Equinox!! The last time the Full Worm Moon happened less than one day of the March equinox was 19 years ago, in 2000, and the next time will be 11 years from now, in 2030.
But that’s not all: March’s full Moon will also be a supermoon, meaning that it will be slightly larger than most of the other full Moons this year.
The word equinox comes from the Latin words for “equal night”—aequus (equal) and nox (night).
On the equinox, the length of day and night is nearly equal in all parts of the world.
I'm ready for spring, are you?!
