Q:This year (2017),both Easters are on the  same date.When does this happen?
A:The two dates coincide when the full moon following the equinox comes so late that it counts as the first full moon after 21 March in the Julian calendar as well as Gregorian .This is not a regular occurrence,but it has happened more frequently in recent years-in 2001,2004,2007,2010,2014and this year 2017,but after this,not again until 2034.
