Sun Position by Month
How the sun changes through the year in both hemispheres.

Sun position in May

In May, the sun rises higher in the sky, and days continue to lengthen in the Northern Hemisphere as it moves deeper into spring. The sun’s path is at a higher angle, resulting in more direct sunlight and longer daylight hours, making it an excellent time for outdoor activities, gardening, and solar energy collection.

In the Southern Hemisphere, daylight hours begin to shorten as they approach winter, with the sun’s position lowering in the sky.
