    I'm guessing it means 'from that day' rather than 'on that day'. Literally "with that day as a watershed". But that really is just a logical guess. I've never seen it before. If you're not familiar with the AをBに construction then try this link: japanese.stackexchange.com/questions/20854/…

「その日を境{さかい}に」




「境」 in this phrase means a "turning point" where something changed.



What it is that changed must be explained (or at least implied) in the context before this phrase appears.




"Ever since that day..."
