When is Easter




This is a trick question because the date of Easter is not fixed. Easter is the most important holiday for Christians, and it is celebrated to mark the resurrection of Jesus from the dead. The date of Easter changes from year to year because it is based on the date of the spring equinox and the full moon.
The spring equinox is the day when the sun crosses the equator, and the day and night are of equal length. The full moon is the day when the moon is at its brightest.
Easter is always celebrated on the first Sunday after the first full moon after the spring equinox. This means that Easter can fall on any date between March 22 and April 25.
In 2023, Easter will be celebrated on Sunday, April 9th.
For many Christians, Easter is a time of great joy and celebration. They attend church services, eat special foods, and spend time with family and friends.
Easter is also a time for reflection and remembrance. Christians remember the suffering and death of Jesus Christ, and they celebrate his resurrection as a victory over sin and death.
Here are some interesting facts about Easter:
  • The name "Easter" comes from the Anglo-Saxon word "Eostre," which was the name of the goddess of spring and fertility.
  • The Easter bunny is a symbol of fertility and new life.
  • The Easter egg is a symbol of new life and the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Easter is a special time of year for Christians and non-Christians alike. It is a time to celebrate new life, hope, and the victory of good over evil.
