The Date of Easter view detail comment email this

"The usual statement, that Easter Day is the first Sunday after the full moon that occurs next after the vernal equinox, is not a precise statement of the actual ecclesiastical rules." This site gives the rules, a chart of the dates of Easter for the years 1980-2024, and an algorithm that "will compute the date of Easter in the Gregorian Calendar system." From the U.S. Naval Observatory Astronomical Applications Department.

Moonwise: New Easter Dates 1997-2205 view detail comment email this

This site features a table of the dates for Easter in the Gregorian calendar and for orthodox Christian religions. It also explains the differing methods of calculating the date for Easter (based on the date of the full moon) and proposals for establishing one date for Easter. Designed in a rather difficult color scheme by a company that makes moon calendars.
