Equinox

Real World Example

Imagine trying to perfectly balance a see-saw with two people of equal weight sitting at opposite ends. This moment of balance is similar to the equinox, where the Earth's tilt and orbit align so that the Sun is directly over the equator, creating equal lengths of day and night. Just as the see-saw achieves perfect equilibrium when weight is evenly distributed, the equinox represents a point of balance in the Earth's journey around the Sun, where light and darkness are distributed equally across the planet.
