Easter and other associated holidays do not fall on fixed dates, because they follow the Jewish Lunar Calendar and not the Solar Gregorian Calendar. Generally, the first Sunday after the full moon that falls on or just after Spring Equinox (March 21) is fixed as Easter. Easter, thus, is also known as a moveable feast, since it can occur on any date between March 22nd and April 25th.
In 1997, the World Council of Churches put a suggestion to restructure the methods of determining the date of Easter to remove this difference of dates in the Western and the Eastern Churches. Although this reform was to be implemented from 2001, it failed due to lack of support from these churches.
