Now let’s talk about Easter—or rather, the origins and truth that mainstream culture tends to gloss over.
🐣 Easter: Beyond the Bunny
Most people associate Easter with Jesus' resurrection, pastel colors, bunnies, and egg hunts. But did you know that Easter as we know it is actually a blend of ancient pagan traditions and later Christian reinterpretation?
The word "Easter" is believed to be derived from Eostre (or Ostara)—the Anglo-Saxon goddess of spring, fertility, and new beginnings. Her sacred symbols? The hare and the egg, both timeless emblems of fertility and creation. These traditions were celebrated during the Spring Equinox, when light and darkness are in perfect balance, and Earth begins to bloom once more.
So, when you see decorated eggs or bunny symbolism around this time of year—understand that it has nothing to do with a crucifixion and everything to do with honoring life, rebirth, and divine feminine energy.
🌼 The Sacred Feminine & the Return of Light
Before patriarchal systems took over and reshaped spiritual stories to fit their power structures, spring was a time to honor the Earth, womb energy, and nature’s regenerative cycles. It was a time of ritual, planting seeds (physically and metaphorically), and embracing transformation.
This is why spring—and the energy around Easter—is such a potent time for:
-
🌱 Manifestation & Fertility Rituals
-
💧 Spiritual Cleansing & Renewal
-
🔥 Awakening Inner Fire & Purpose
-
💎 Working with Crystals to Align with New Vibrations
🧠 Myths, Misconceptions & Woke Awareness
Let’s be real—many modern holidays have been commercialized and stripped of their esoteric and ancestral significance. Easter is no different. The concept of resurrection wasn’t unique to the Jesus story—it shows up in ancient myths across the world, including Osiris (Egypt), Dionysus (Greece), Tammuz (Babylonia), and Mithras (Persia). All divine beings who “died” and were “reborn” around the spring season.
So for our awakened community: don’t be afraid to question, dig deeper, and honor the original energies behind these celebrations. The truth is, Easter is a cosmic reminder that we, too, are always evolving, shedding, and blooming.
🌙 Come Celebrate With Us!
Let’s honor this season of awakening together. Catch us at the Magical Roots Market at True Roots on April 7th.
Remember: you are the egg, the seed, the spark.
This is your time to rise.
With love and light,
Gigi & Carmen
