The calculation of the date of Easter in any specific year is somewhat complex as it uses both lunar and standard calendars.
First, the lunar month beginning with an ecclesiastical new moon falling between March 8 to April 5 called the paschal lunar month for that year.
Easter is the 3rd Sunday in that paschal lunar month. This is the Sunday after the paschal lunar month's 14th day. This is related to the convention that the 14th of the paschal lunar month is designated as the Paschal full moon even though it might be off by up to two days from the observable full moon by up to two days.
Easter is always celebrated on a Sunday, but the date varies from year to year depending on the Jewish feastof Passover, which is linked to the phases of the moon after the vernal equinox.
In short words, Easter Sunday falls on the first Sunday after the first full moon after equinox.
