Lichtenberg, Heiner (2003). "Das anpassbar zyklische, solilunare Zeitzählungssystem des gregorianischen Kalenders". Mathematische Semesterberichte. 50: 45–76. doi: 10.1007/s00591-003-0063-0. S2CID 120639320. It is necessary to add them to the day of the solar year to obtain the correct day in the lunar year. Whenever the epact reaches or exceeds 30, an extra intercalary month (or embolismic month) of 30 days must be inserted into the lunar calendar: then 30 must be subtracted from the epact. Charles Wheatly provides the detail: Pope Gregory XIII (24 February 1582). "Inter Gravissimas". Archived from the original on 13 February 2006 . Retrieved 9 August 2017. As a result of the Irish Synod of Magh-Lene in 630, the southern Irish began to use the Dionysian tables, [21] and the northern English followed suit after the Synod of Whitby in 664. [22] The decision on how and when Easter should fall each year was made by the Council of Nicaea in 325 AD, the first major church council. Why did the Council of Nicaea need to intervene?

The golden number for 1573 is 16 ( 1573 + 1 = 1574; 1574 ÷ 19 = 82 remainder 16). From the table, the paschal full moon for golden number 16 is 21 March. From the week table 21 March is Saturday. Easter Sunday is the following Sunday, 22 March. The Easter cycle groups days into lunar months, which are either 29 or 30 days long. There is an exception. The month ending in March normally has thirty days, but if 29 February of a leap year falls within it, it contains 31. As these groups are based on the lunar cycle, over the long term the average month in the lunar calendar is a very good approximation of the synodic month, which is 29.530 59 days long. [30] The ratios of (mean solar) days per year and days per lunation change both because of intrinsic long-term variations in the orbits, and because the rotation of the Earth is slowing down due to tidal deceleration, so the Gregorian parameters become increasingly obsolete.

Easter is only ever celebrated by all Christians on the relatively rare occasions when the two calendars align,” she added.

The holiday’s mixed origins have resulted in some interesting traditions in the UK, including Brits gobbling chocolate shaped like eggs.

There are 12 synodic months in a lunar year, totaling either 354 or 355 days. The lunar year is about 11 days shorter than the calendar year, which is either 365 or 366 days long. These days by which the solar year exceeds the lunar year are called epacts ( Greek: ἐπακταὶ ἡμέραι, translit. épaktai hēmérai, lit."intercalary days"). [31] [32] Historically the paschal full moon date for a year was found from its sequence number in the Metonic cycle, called the golden number, which cycle repeats the lunar phase on January 1 every 19 years. [39] This method was modified in the Gregorian reform because the tabular dates go out of sync with reality after about two centuries, but from the epact method, a simplified table can be constructed that has a validity of one to three centuries.
