March

March is the third month of the year in the Gregorian calendar, which is widely used around the world. It consists of 31 days and is typically associated with the arrival of spring in the Northern Hemisphere and autumn in the Southern Hemisphere. The name “March” is derived from the Latin word “Martius,” named after Mars, the Roman god of war. Historically, March was the first month of the year in ancient Roman calendars. In various cultures, March is often associated with the onset of new growth, renewal, and change as the seasons transition from winter to spring. It is also marked by several observances, including International Women’s Day on March 8 and the Spring Equinox, which usually occurs around March 20 or 21.
