The Date of Easter
"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." This site gives the rules, a chart of the dates of Easter for the years 1980-2024, and an algorithm that "will compute the date of Easter in the Gregorian Calendar system." From the U.S. Naval Observatory Astronomical Applications Department.
