The meaning of Easter

Easter Easter wasn’t originally a Christian festival. The Anglo-Saxons used to celebrate the return of spring. The festival was named after their goddess of offspring and spring Easter. The Christian missionaries decided to spread the message of Easter slowly so that the Anglo-Saxons could celebrate their pagan festivals but in a Christian manner.

What does Easter represent? It’s the celebration of Jesus resurrection. On Good Friday we remember how Jesus was crucified and he died for our sins. On Easter Sunday we celebrate how Jesus came back to life. We give out “Easter” Eggs as a sign of new life. They can be chicken eggs Boiled and painted or coloured. Or as most people prefer Chocolate.

When Easter is Celebrated Easter is celebrated on the Friday to Sunday after the full moon that is on or after the vernal equinox. Before AD 325 Easter was variously celebrated on different days of the week, including Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Now we commemorate the crucifixion on Good Friday and celebrate the resurrection on Easter Sunday.

Liturgical Colours The Liturgical Colour of the Easter season is white

Symbols The Cross is the symbol of the Crucifixion, as opposed to the Resurrection. However, in A.D. 325, it was decreed that the Cross was the official symbol of Christianity. The Cross is not only a symbol of Easter, but it is more widely used, especially by the Catholic Church, as a year-round symbol of their faith.
