What is the difference between the Autumnal Equinox and the Beginning of Autumn?

1. The sun is in a different position
beginning of autumn:
At the beginning of autumn, the sun is at 135° of ecliptic longitude.
Every year on August 7 or August 8 of the Gregorian calendar, the sun will orbit to the position of 135° of the ecliptic longitude. From this solar term, my country officially enters autumn.
Autumnal Equinox:
During the autumnal equinox, the sun is at 180° of ecliptic longitude.
The autumnal equinox falls between September 22-24 of the Gregorian calendar every year. The autumnal equinox and the vernal equinox are opposite to each other, with the vernal equinox being 0° and the autumnal equinox being 180°. During these two days, the sun will be directly above the equator, and the day and night will be of equal length in most parts of the world.
2. Different meanings
beginning of autumn:
Fall has officially begun.
Beginning of Autumn is the first solar term in autumn, and it marks the official start of early autumn. The temperature at Beginning of Autumn is similar to that in summer, and then it will slowly drop from hot to cool, and from cool to cold. Therefore, Beginning of Autumn is a transitional season.
Autumnal Equinox:
Into late autumn.
The Autumnal Equinox is the fourth solar term in autumn. After the Autumnal Equinox, most parts of my country have entered late autumn. At the Autumnal Equinox, the sun revolves to the position of 180° of the ecliptic longitude. At this time, the day and night are equal in length. After that, it is late autumn, and a few solar terms will bring the beginning of winter.
3. Different climate characteristics
beginning of autumn:
The heat is unbearable.
The beginning of autumn is the hottest time of the year, when the temperature is high and the heat is unbearable, almost the same as in summer. There is also an autumn tiger after the beginning of autumn. During the autumn tiger, the temperature in some cities can reach 40° or above, which is very hot.
Autumnal Equinox:
The autumn breeze brings coolness.
It is already late autumn during the autumnal equinox, which is a great time of cool and crisp weather with golden breezes and the fragrance of osmanthus. There is a saying that goes “Every autumn rain brings a chill”, which refers to the Autumnal Equinox. The temperature is moderate during the Autumnal Equinox, and as long as it rains, the surface temperature and the perceived temperature will drop.
4. Different solar terms
beginning of autumn:
Beginning of Autumn is the 13th of the 24 traditional solar terms in my country.
There is an allusive story about the Beginning of Autumn solar term. When the Beginning of Autumn comes, the leaves of the phoenix tree begin to turn yellow and wither, so there is a saying that goes "When the phoenix tree leaves fall, the world knows that autumn has arrived."
Autumnal Equinox:
The Autumnal Equinox is the 16th solar term among the 24 traditional solar terms in my country.
The autumnal equinox is the 30th day into autumn. At the autumnal equinox, day and night are equal, each lasting 12 hours. There is no polar day or polar night anywhere in the world.
5. Other differences
The three signs of the beginning of autumn:
The first sign is the arrival of cool breeze, the second sign is the appearance of white dew, and the third sign is the chirping of cicadas.
The cool breeze arrives: The bleak wind from the west is called the cool breeze. It is when the temperature changes and the cool air begins to set in. "Zhou Yu" says that when fire appears, the cool breeze will prevent the cold.
White dew appears: After a heavy rain, a cool breeze comes, and the sky is white and misty, but it has not yet condensed into beads, so it is called the White Dew, indicating the white color of autumn gold.
The chirping of cicadas: The chirping of cicadas, in Er Ya, is called the cold cicada, which is small and bluish purple; Ma said that the sound of things born in summer changes.
The three phases of the autumnal equinox:
The first sign is that the thunder begins to subside, the second sign is that the hibernating insects begin to emerge, and the third sign is that the water begins to dry up.
The thunder begins to subside: Bao said: Thunder, sounds are made in the Yang in February, and subside in the Yin in August, and when it enters the earth, all things follow it. The ancients believed that thunder was caused by the abundance of yang energy. After the autumnal equinox, yin energy began to flourish, so thunder no longer occurred. Therefore, thunder not only marks the end of summer, but also the beginning of autumn cold. It is also a sign that all things are beginning to decline, and the weather is gradually becoming gloomy and cold.
The door of hibernating insects is blocked: The note in "Book of Rites" says: "The door of the hibernation hole is to enlarge the hole so that the bright place is slightly smaller. When it is very cold, it is blocked. As the weather gets colder, hibernating insects begin to hide in their burrows and seal the entrances with fine soil to prevent the cold from invading.
The water begins to dry up: The note of "Book of Rites" says: "Water is originally the result of Qi". In spring and summer, Qi arrives, so it grows, and in autumn and winter, Qi returns, so it dries up. This means that the rainfall begins to decrease at this time. Due to the dry weather and fast evaporation of water vapor, the amount of water in lakes and rivers becomes less, and some swamps and puddles become dry.
