4 Eclipses Not to Miss 2026–2029
Some eclipses, like this month’s partial solar eclipse, can be very elusive. We’ve compiled a list of upcoming eclipses you can get to in real life.
Many Orthodox churches base their Easter date on the Julian calendar, which often differs from the Gregorian calendar that is used by many western countries. Therefore the Orthodox Easter period often occurs later than the Easter period that falls around the time of the March equinox.
Is Easter Sunday a Public Holiday?
Easter Sunday is a public holiday. It is a day off for the general population, and schools and most businesses are closed.
In 2026, it falls on a Sunday, and some businesses may choose to follow Sunday opening hours.
It is common to crack or smash painted eggs on Orthodox Easter Day.
