During the vernal equinox, which occurs around March 20-21 each year, Earth's axis is tilted neither toward nor away from the Sun. This means that the Sun is positioned directly above the equator, resulting in nearly equal day and night lengths across the globe. The tilt of Earth's axis remains at approximately 23.5 degrees, but its orientation allows for this balanced distribution of sunlight during the equinox.
