Easter festival is what started at Holy Week of Palm Sunday. Palm Sunday is the day Jesus and his disciples entered into Jerusalem. When Jesus enters into Jerusalem, people lower the palm leaves. Today, our parish hosts a large celebration, a parade is held, the palm trees are lifted, and the pastor blesses them. This is the longest gospel. The whole passion was read aloud, and pamls became the cross. Today: The next important day is Maundy on Thursday.
How is Easter? Yes, Easter is based on ancient pagan festival celebrating the spring equinox (spring). The word Easter comes from the German goddess Eostre, which is actually said to have been celebrated at this time of the year. Easter bunnies and easter eggs are also symbols of infertility and therefore are traditions of infidels (New Life / Spring). Indeed, when the church held power in Europe, officials adopted many pagan traditions and festivals and decided to make them a Christian holiday. If people want to completely deprive people of their traditions and beliefs, people feel that the possibility of conversion is low. The church may also try to abandon many of these ancient traditions, but people feel very strong about them as they continue to pass from generation to generation.
Let's talk about Easter's habit that does not get so confused. In Poland on Easter Saturday it is usual to hold a basket full of traditional Easter Festival foods (boiled eggs, sausages, salt, pepper and so on) blessed by pastors. Traditional breakfast offers blessed dishes the following day. Morning celebration begins with the desire to share eggs and interact with family and guests.
