SUNDAY

9 APRIL 2023

IT'S EASTER SUNDAY.
I CELEBRATE PAGAN HOLIDAYS!

Easter was a celebration of the spring equinox for the pagans. Pagans lived their lives in strong accordance with nature's rhythms and patterns, and solstices and equinoxes were considered to be sacred times.

How do pagans celebrate Easter?

A part of the pagan celebrations of Ēostre, buns marked with a cross would be baked across pre-Christian Europe to celebrate the springtime goddess. The symbolism of the cross on the bun was said to represent the four seasons as well as the four primary phases of the moon.

What is Easter called for pagans?
Pascha, Easter and the goddess of spring

"Eostre was a goddess of spring or renewal and that's why her feast is attached to the vernal equinox," Professor Cusack said. "In Germany the festival is called Ostern, and the goddess is called Ostara."

Honored in the early spring, it praised the pagan goddess of fertility and spring known as 'Ostara', 'Eastre' or 'Eostre'.
