EASTER’S LEGEND

An ancient Germanic legend tells the

origin of Easter as the symbol of spring.
According to legend, Eostra, the Anglo-
Saxon goddess of fertility and rebirth,
saved a dying earth bird.
 Eostra transformed the bird into a mighty
rabbit, called Emily and bequeathed her the
destiny to become the symbol of hope and
fertility.
As the queen of spring, Emily represents the
four elements of Earth, Air, Fire and Water.
Her flamed ears are of the Fire element, her ocean
eyes of the Water element, Her bushy tail of the
Earth element.  And finally her red paw reminds us
that she was a bird, masters of the Air element.  
 The egg symbol connects the infinite cycle of
the spiral and the power of the crescent moon.
