Do you have the time to expound where 'what of the night' fits in with the Jewish feasts?

Sorry, I'm just flying by the seat of my pants here... lol
Are we in a night season? I think so. And the night comes before the daylight time. Interestingly, there is no solid, black and white, hardcore line between one day and the next, or between the "evening" and the "morning".
For example, the "day" begins with the evening. But not when it is completely DARK, but as the sun sinks below the horizon. Thus, the day begins with some fading daylight. Then the nighttime sets in...
The feasts were a yearly recurring calendar. The SACRED year began with the spring, and ended with the fall. Thus, Passover occurs in the first part of the "day" (the night time), just as it did in Egypt when it was at night that death came to Egypt (bringing deliverance to Israel)... and Tabernacles occurs in the "daytime" part of the year - fall...
BUT... the CIVIL calendar was reversed - where the year began in the fall... highlighted by Tabernacles... then moving into the spring and Passover...
Interesting how the CIVIL calendar is the REVERSE of the SACRED calendar...
MAN'S time is backwards from God's... God said we must begin with Passover season... but MAN says we must begin with Tabernacles and HARVEST season...
Perhaps what I am trying to express is my impression that manmade religion is getting the cart before the horse... wanting the presence of God dwelling with them but not starting where God said to start - DEATH and the Passover, the BLOOD, and the WEEK of Unleavened Bread... with the Wave-offering of the early Firstfruits in the midst of it... and thus being sustained through the long time of LABOR until Tabernacles came upon the horizon...
Or it might be the peanut butter and jelly sandwich I ate a few hours ago giving me trouble...
