1、Easter is not only a holiday, but a season in itself. For many religious indivials, it signifies a time of miracles and a reaffirmation of faith. From a more secular perspective, it is a celebration of the end of winter, a time to anticipate the warmth of the approaching summer, and an opportunity to swap the heavy garments of winter for the vibrant colors of spring. Long before Easter became the holiday it is today, the spring festival was celebrated by people around the world. The origin of the celebration was based on the lunar calendar. The name "Easter" is derived from the Saxon goddess Eostre, who is synonymous with the Phoenician moon goddess, Astarte. Eostre was a Germanic goddess of spring and the deity who measured time.
