The Easter season has arrived so it is time to start thinking about how to decorate your lawn or garden to celebrate the beginning of spring and the season of religious rebirth. Easter is celebrated for different reasons in different parts of the world depending on individual spiritual beliefs.
Easter was named after Eastre who was a pagan saxon goddess. Eastre was the Anglo- Saxon goddess of fertility, dawn and spring. The first day of spring or at the vernal equinox a celebration would be held each year in the honor of Eastre. The first Sunday after the first full moon following the vernal equinox was a sacred day for Eastre as well and was given her name. The full moon represented the fertile season. New life is the wonderful gift of the spring season as a result of the warm sun and rainwater that comes with the season. Eastre's symbols were the rabbit or hare and the egg which represent fertility and new life. Anyone who has had the experience of caring for a rabbit will know that they selected the perfect symbol. The Easter rabbit and Easter egg are a tradition for this reason.
The Eastre holiday continued to be celebrated through the years and over time became a holiday celebrated by Christians. The spelling of the name was changed to Easter. The Christian celebration of Easter represents rebirth through the Resurrection of Christ. Many Christians prefer to decorate their homes or gardens during the Easter holiday with Sacred Heart of Jesus Statues or Madonna statues.
