We all know the meaning of both Equinox as the day in changing seasons where daylight and dark times are equal, but depending mostly on location weather changes may be more or less welcome. As to hours of light -more is always better. I’m a bird person who lives like a bird, so I love to wake up at or just before sunrise and retire very soon after dark regardless of the hour so I prefer summer (even tho’ here that is often over 100F) but my favorite times (because I try to save) are those when I use cross ventilation with no equipment and the house is lovely for sleeping and everything else.
About the equinox? Yes, it’s 12 hours day and 12 hours night. Just I wish we stop this mundane habit of changing the clocks back and forth every year from November to March.

What is the autumnal or fall equinox? And let me be the first to apologize, in advance, for this: Don’t equinox it if you haven’t tried it!

We’re enjoying a lovely Vernal equinox: 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of night… give or take a few seconds. Happy Equinox.

I glad you’re cartoonist and not a brain surgeon. No one with a half a mind would want to let you operate on them! LOL.
