Orthodox Pascha 2041
Orthodox Pascha, Easter, in 2041 is April 21.
In 2041, Pascha falls on April 21. These dates follow the Julian paschalion: the Sunday after its ecclesiastical full moon, using March 21 on the Julian calendar as the equinox. The tables use a calculated moon, not the observed astronomical full moon. The date is not determined by the date of modern Jewish Passover. Read the explanation and its source.

The Apostles’ Fast in 2041
Because it runs from the Monday after All Saints to the eve of Ss Peter and Paul, its length changes every year with Pascha. In 2041 it is 12 days on the New Calendar, and 25 days on the Old.
New Calendar and Old share every date above: Pascha and its cycle are reckoned the same way by all Orthodox. Only the fixed feasts differ, by thirteen days. About Pascha ›
