Even its name is borrowed from a pagan goddess- astra, Anglo-Saxon Goddess of Light and Spring. Vastra’s name is derived from the old word “ostra,” meaning “rising,” conferred on her because she symbolized the season of the car when nature arises anew The custom of giving egas ai Kaster s also very ancient, and of pagan origin Among the ancient Persians, eggs were give at this time of year because they are the na- tural symbol of new life. ‘This custom and the aster Festival were Christianized after the Resurrection and are now world-wide, em- braced by every nation and race. In Russia the common people color their eggs scarlet; the gentlefolk gild theirs, At the aster ferival they kiss and exchange egg: At Thera, in Greece, red eggs are exchanged, the red signify- peu blood of Christ. Two friends meet; one takes the other's egg, strikes it at one end with his own and says, “Christ is risen”; the other friend does likewise, saying “Truly He is risen.” To the fair Goddess Eastra we are also indebted for our delightful custom of fea- turing the “bunny,” or rabbit, in our Easter celebration. The hare, to which family the rabbit belongs, was the emblem of Eastra, just as it was the emblem of Aphrodite in Greece. A game called “Catching the Hare," was the chief feature of the festival 10 Eastra which was held each Spring. Throughout the world Waster is now, to use the words of Browning, “Queen of Days—Festival of Festivals,” a time of flowers and gladness, symbolizing to Christians exactly what the Goddess Eastra symbolized to her pagan worshippers—“Light,” or Understand- ing, which broke upon the world with the Resurrection, and “Spring,” the Resurrection being a fulfilment of the promise of renewed life.
