The Pagan Easter

The Pagan Easter Cover
The Easter Fire is a custom of pagan origin spread all over Europe. It is a symbol of victory, the victory of beautiful and sunny spring over the cold days of winter. The fire is lit usually on the top of the mountains - Easter mountain, Osterberg - and it is obtained from wood by friction. In Germany, the Easter fire consists from gathering all the Christmas trees and burning them into a huge fire, a sign for everyone to leave behind winter and prepare for spring.
