The Sweet Little Easter Bunny and History
Symbolism, messages and other Pagan festival mash up is created in some people’s minds when
Easter comes.
The occasion’s importance is relating Lord Jesus Christ’s resurrection after three
days of his crucifixion however the secular segment of the Christian holiday focuses on the
various eggs colored in bright hues, fuzzy baby chicks and surely, the cute little Easter bunny! Is
it not amazing that how all these aspects came to be a part of the similar holiday? This period
comes from a festival denoting the Spring season that the Ancient Saxons would celebrate so as
to honor Easter.
She was the goddess of fertility, dawn and Spring.
The symbol that was used by
her was the rabbit.
Christian missionaries did not try to attempt converting the Pagans into
Christians by creating Easter cards.
Rather, holidays were amalgamated in order to make
Christianity seem even attractive to those who had been opting to convert themselves into this
religion.
