Western Easter is in March, but Orthodox Easter is in April this year (2008). The Easter date is determined by four main factors. The first two have been established by Apostolic canon, making them binding, and the last two have been established by church tradition. The West no longer keeps the requirement for Easter to be after the Jewish Passover (see point No. 2 below), and that is why Western Christians had their Easter on 23 March this year. The Easter date is set according to the Julian or Old Calendar and this date must be: 1) after the Vernal (Spring) Equinox, and 2) after the Jewish Passover, and 3) with the first full moon in Spring, and 4) on a Sunday after 21 March. So Orthodox Easter in 2008 is on 27 April.

∙ 7y agoEaster is not a particular day of the calendar. The ecclesiastical rules are: Easter falls on the first Sunday following the first ecclesiastical full moon that occurs on or after the day of the vernal equinox. In 1989 that was at the end of March.
