So Easter has arrived! The Easter egg serves as a representation of the spring celebration, along with the Easter cake and cottage cheese Easter. The egg signifies life, renewal, and the custom of dyeing eggs for Easter has origins in ancient times. According to legend, Mary Magdalene gifted the very first Easter egg to the Roman emperor Tiberius to proclaim the miraculous resurrection of Jesus Christ. In another tale, the tradition of dyeing eggs is said to have been initiated by the Virgin Mary, who colored eggs to amuse Jesus Christ when he was an infant. The hue of an egg is determined by the substance used for coloring it, and the color itself holds significance: red is a regal shade, symbolizing God’s love for humanity, while blue represents the Blessed Virgin and is associated with compassion, hope, and affection for others. White embodies a heavenly color, representing purity and spirituality, whereas yellow, along with orange and gold, signifies wealth and success. Green, a blend of blue and yellow, symbolizes prosperity and rejuvenation. Vibrant and decorated eggs bring joy and serve as the foundation for Easter festivities. Everyone enjoys participating in activities related to Easter eggs, particularly children. It’s time to unleash our creativity. Let’s prepare paints and brushes.
