The September equinox, also known as the autumnal equinox in the Northern Hemisphere, marks the moment when the sun crosses the celestial equator from north to south. This event typically occurs on September 22nd or 23rd each year. In the Northern Mariana Islands, which are located in the Pacific Ocean and are a commonwealth of the United States, this equinox signals the transition from summer to fall.

  • Although there is less seasonal variation near the equator, residents still acknowledge the passage of time marked by this astronomical event.

History and Traditions:

  • The Northern Mariana Islands have a rich cultural history influenced by indigenous Chamorro traditions as well as Spanish, German, Japanese, and American rule through different periods.
  • Traditional celebrations specific to the September equinox are not widely documented for these islands.
  • However, culturally significant days such as Commonwealth Cultural Day may involve recognizing changes in seasons with festivals or communal activities.
