Easter is after the first full moon after the first day of spring. They count backwards forty days, not including Sundays, for Lent. So it varies by a few weeks depending on the moon's cycle.

The usual statement, that Easter Day is the first Sunday after the full moon that occurs next after the vernal equinox, is not a precise statement of the actual ecclesiastical rules. See link for more info.

I agree that we should move it to being on the same day...like the 2nd Sunday in April every year.
I know that the moons and the vernal equinox and the win/loss record of the Angels has something to do with an equation that is so complex, the US Navy has a website about it...
