Yesterday's so-called "Super Worm Equinox Moon," a full moon, coincided with the vernal equinox, after which the northern hemisphere begins to tilt towards the Sun. For a short time, the days and nights are of virtually equal length (equinox means "equal night"), but just occasionally a total solar eclipse (always caused by a new moon) coincides with a vernal equinox to bring a brief night in the day. The last total solar eclipse to occur during September's autumnal or fall equinox was in 1922. When is the next 'Equinox Eclipse'? The next time an equinox and a total solar eclipse coincide is on March 20, 2034, when a path of totality will sweep across Central Africa and South Asia.
