medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
February 4th is the earliest day, upon which Ash Wednesday can fall. When it
does, Easter is March 22nd, which is the earliest day upon which Easter can
fall. This happened just a few years ago, in 1818. I don't know when it will
happen again, but whenever that is, it will be sometime after 2089.
(The latest day upon which Ash Wednesday can fall is March 10th. When it
does, Easter is April 25th, the latest day upon which Easter can fall. This
last happened in 1886. It will happen next in 2038.)
Cheers,
Terrill Heaps
