From astronomers’ perspective, spring begins today, March 20. The astronomical start of spring depends on the position of the sun. It is vertically above the equator only twice a year. And it is precisely at these moments that both hemispheres of the earth are equally illuminated by the sun, despite the angle of inclination of the earth.

Spring is here again, and with it regular sunshine. You can read about the effect of the sun on our mood and how important it is to protect ourselves from sunlight here.

Answers to 20 spring questions

  1. Why does the sun put you in a good mood?
    A good mood is caused by the sun stimulating the production of vitamin D in the body, which has a mood-improving effect.
  2. How much sun is good for me?
    The rule of thumb without protection is: no more than ten minutes for light skin types, no more than 30 minutes for darker skin types.
  3. Why do I get sunburned so easily now?
    During the winter months when the sun is low, the skin breaks down its own protection (pigments) and therefore becomes extremely sensitive in the spring months.
  4. Should I wear sunscreen?
    Yes, it is best to add it to day cream or make-up (at least protection factor 10-15).
  5. How long can I keep freckles?
    Throughout their lives, they only become light again after being left without sun for a week.
  6. What to do for sun wrinkles?
    Avoid midday sun, drink plenty of water and apply lotion. After the end of the season: Fruit acid peels at the dermatologist.
  7. Why do I get tired more quickly?
    Due to calcium deficiency caused by sweating and active glands. This is due to stronger UV radiation.
  8. What is the best diet right now?
    Vegetables and salads, eggs, fish, poultry. Cheese and other dairy products. And fruits rich in calcium, as well as bananas.
  9. When should people who are sensitive to weather conditions consult a doctor?
    If you have psychological problems, especially depression, you should definitely consult a doctor. This can often happen when people feel lonely or unattractive.
  10. Do I need to pay extra attention now?
    Yes! At least one full-body peel (which removes old skin cells) plus a daily moisturizer.
  11. What really helps against sweating?
    In addition to deodorant: Drink a tea made from lemon balm and sage leaves three times a day. If nothing works, you should go to a dermatologist.
  12. Does the sun really increase sex drive?
    Yes! Through more active hormones and messenger substances as well as more external stimuli (bare skin).
  13. Why is the risk of colds increasing?
    Due to strong temperature contrasts: hot in the sun, cold in the shade and wind. They weaken the immune system.
  14. How should I dress best?
    Layers, for example, combining a t-shirt with a sweater. This helps adapt to the temperature.
  15. Why is the desire to go to work decreasing?
    The air awakens repressed dreams: more freedom, fun, time for family, friends and ourselves.
  16. How can I lose weight quickly?
    Replace carbohydrates (potatoes, rice, pasta, bread, flour products) with vegetables as often as possible.
  17. What should people with pollen allergies do?
    Just air it out in the morning and change your clothes when you get home. Black seed oil or krill oil capsules can be helpful as home remedies.
  18. Why do we have spring?
    Due to the tilt of the Earth’s axis: The sun’s rays now fall more steeply and therefore have more power.
  19. Where does the name Bahar come from?
    It comes from the Middle High German word “vrüelinc”, used since the 15th century. Spring also appeared in the 17th century.
  20. How long does spring officially last?
    Meteorologically, summer begins on June 1. Therefore, spring lasts another 45 days.
