What is the reason why Easter is related to spring?
Easter is also closely related to spring because the two encapsulate renewal, renewal and new life. Spring is the end of winter and the start of a warm, blooming season, so spring was the perfect time to remember the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Easter is in Christian belief a celebration of the resurrection, which represents a new beginning and the triumph of life over death. It is also the spring when flowers bloom, animals rouse from hibernation, nature awakens from winter’s slumber, in a manner that resembles resurrection and optimism.
The Easter-spring link is also manifest in the appropriation of seasonal symbols (such as flowers, eggs and newborn animals), which stand for transformation and eternal life. This match between the season and the holiday enriches Easter’s religious value as an act of self- and nature-rejuvenation.
