Why is Easter not always celebrated on the same date?

17 April 2022

 

Today, 17 April, we celebrate Easter, but the date changes every year.

At the beginning of Christianity, resurrection was celebrated every Sunday and only later it was decided to celebrate it once a year.

It was difficult to choose an exact date on which to celebrate it.

After the Nicea Council, it was decided to fix Easter on the Sunday following the first full moon of spring.

Happy Easter!
