Jesus conception is the Annunciation and it's on March 25. The conception and birth of Jesus are based in the spring equinox and the winter solstice. Easter is based on a lunar calendar which is why it moves around.
The equinox and the beginning of spring sound similar but they most certainly are not. The beginning of Spring is the arrival of new life. The equinox is the turning.
Easter is also tied to Passover so it has another facet.
