Orbit and day count diagram inc cross-qtr. Finally got round to it.Īnd one with the cross quarter days calculated according to Merlin of England's method of defining two "equidistants" halfway between each pair of solstices (WS to SS and SS to WS) and then the cross quarter days being halfway between equidistants and solstices.
The term solstice can also be used in a broader sense, as the day when this occurs. And even though this is common wisdom, it isnt entirely accurate. In many countries, the seasons of the year are determined by the solstices and the equinoxes. Equinox in Latin means equal night, giving the impression that the night and day on the equinox are exactly 12 hours long. I've been meaning to do this diagram for a while, showing why equinoxes aren't halfway between solstices. Two solstices occur annually, around June 21 and December 21. Before looking at the differences between Equinox and solstice, let us look in detail at. Numbers of days between solstices and equinoxes Solstice is when people on earth experience long days and nights. Quick links to various main topics in my blog
