📝 About Easter 2027
Easter 2027 celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ on a date determined by a formula tied to the spring equinox and the lunar calendar, established at the Council of Nicaea in 325 AD. Eastern Orthodox churches use the Julian calendar, so Orthodox Easter often falls on a different date. Beyond its religious significance, Easter has absorbed pre-Christian spring fertility symbols: eggs representing new life, rabbits associated with the Germanic goddess Eostre, and lilies. Over 16 billion jellybeans and 91 million chocolate bunnies are produced for Easter in the United States alone. The White House Easter Egg Roll, first held in 1878, remains one of America's oldest annual presidential traditions.
