How is the date of Easter calculated?

Have you noticed that Easter does not fall every year on the same day? Let's explain _____________ is like that! In the Southern Hemisphere, Easter Sunday is always the first after the first full moon in autumn. But the complete cycle of the phases of the Moon lasts about 29.5 days, that is, it is a broken account, which made that first Sunday after the first full moon of autumn not always fall on the same date.

This also influences Carnival: you count 46 days before Easter Sunday in the calendar to know when Ash Wednesday will be – after Carnival Tuesday.
