The resurrection of Christ is what Easter is all about also making it the ultimate essential of all Christian holy days. However, at present the importance of the holiday is covered by decorated eggs and bunnies. Easter can fall anytime between March 22 and April 25 since is occurs the first Sunday following the full moon. Easter is also connected to the Jewish Passover in symbolism and it's location in the calendar. What's with Rabbits and eggs and Easter? Well the rabbit is a well know sexual symbol of fertility. Religions connected with Babel connect the rabbit with periodicity, both human and lunar. The Mother Goddess Semiramis (Easter) is linked with the moon. Therefore, the Easter bunny characterizes the Mother Goddess and is linked with once a year Spring time fertility rituals worshiping the Mother Goddess. Painted Easter eggs are a part of the festivities too that came from the egg which was a sanctified symbol among the Babylonians. They assumed that a amazing size egg fell from heaven into the Euphrates River from which the Goddess Semiramis was born. It makes you wonder how many of us honestly think about the actual meaning of this holiday other than the resurrection of Jesus Christ. It has grown to be another retail holiday and over commercialized. However, it is a time for families to unite and observe the day.
