After the spring equinox, the apparent movement of the sun continues in the direction towards the north of the equator gradually, and the tendency of the sun’s rays continues to increase, so the day length gradually increases and the night length decreases, while the opposite occurs in the southern hemisphere until the sun’s rays become completely perpendicular to the Tropic of Cancer (23.5) degrees north. Around the 21st of June (the summer solstice), summer occurs in the northern hemisphere, and winter occurs in the southern hemisphere, and the conditions of the globe become during the summer solstice.
To explain the reason for the occurrence of the four seasons, it comes as a result of the presence of the sun in an apparent orbit relative to the stars of the celestial background that appear fixed in the sky. Then fall.”
