The distance between the earth and the sun is shortest in January. Therefore, the earth completes the semicircle from the September equinox to the March equinox faster than it does the opposite semicircle. The seasons have a profound effect on plant and animal life. In spring, plants and trees sprout new leaves, flowers appear, birds migrate to warmer regions, and many animals emerge from hibernation. The seasons are still known by the names that dimly reveal primitive peoples' feelings about them.
Spring refers to the springing forth of living things.
The original meanings of summer and autumn are lost. Spring is a time of new beginnings. Of Hope and of fresh starts. Peace and contentment. Spring is a good time to really look at your life and decide what you believe and why.
