Best Answer

Easter Sunday is calculated by determing the first Sunday after the full moon after the Spring Equinox. Therefore, Easter Sunday falls on the first Sunday, following the full moon after March 21st. Easter Sunday in 2008 was March 23rd, as the full moon fell on the Equinox that year.

Why is Easter day always changed?

Easter is called a moveable feast because the date of Easter changes every year. Easter Sunday can fall on any date from 22 March to 25 April. The reason for this variation in the date of Easter is based on the lunar calendar (moon) rather than our more well-known solar one. Easter always falls on the first Sunday following the full Moon (the Paschal Full Moon) after 21 March. If the Full Moon falls on a Sunday then Easter is the next Sunday.
