Title

The Four Seasons of theYear, Thematic Issue

Description

Τhe seasons occur as a result of the yearly revolution of the earth around the sun and the tilt of the earth’s axis relative to the plane of revolution.

The four seasons divide the year into quarters which are marked by changes not only in ecology and weather but also in daylight hours. The seasons in the Northern Hemisphere are opposite to those in the Southern, thus the March equinox in the Northern Hemisphere heralds
the start of Spring and the start of Autumn in the Southern.

Spring, the most glorious of the four seasons, denotes rebirth and growth when nature celebrates the blooming of life in the valleys and in the mountains, when wild flowers burst from their winter slumber, when animals awake from their hibernation and when trees regain their green leaves. It is a time of joy, a time to rejoice in the wonders of nature and a time for Resurrection and hope. In many calendars important events coincide with a variety of cultural and religious observations and customs.

Cyprus in springtime is magical and the countryside the perfect setting for a picnic.

Summer harbours warm weather and longer days, and while autumn is a time of harvesting, winter is a time of storing and conserving as daylight hours grow shorter and shorter with every passing day.
