Hello witches and Wizards ...


Very soon it will be Easter (Ostara) and millions of lambs and other sentient beings are dying to end up on the tables, just to satisfy our taste.


Those who love animals do not eat a friend!


Being a lover of nature means respecting it and whoever wonders if a vegan kills a plant, I answer ... of the plant we eat the fruit, the seed that would fall to the ground anyway and the plant does not in any way be upset, therefore the plant does not it suffers no maltreatment, if I cut a branch to the plant it grows backwards if I cut a leg to a lamb this will not happen.

 

However, this cannot be used as an excuse to continue killing animals !!!

​

 The plant does not suffer if it feeds on its fruit of its seeds, but what is a fact without any doubt is that an animal suffers and dies!

​

​

 

 

No matter what religion or creed you belong to it is not important!

​

What matters is if inside you you feel compassion for our life partners, those who are the most like us who like us have two eyes, a nose, cry and have fun ... and who are here on this planet with which we have more in common.

​

At Easter do not eat life but love life!

​

May it be a Happy Easter but for Really and for All !!!

Curiosity:


The period that coincides with the feast of Easter, is the main moment of the victory of Light over Darkness: this symbolism, which brings us back to ancient customs of Celtic origins.

​

In the Celtic Tradition to every festivity corresponds a divinity, a "subtle force" that acts in a particular moment of the lunar cycle.

​

At Easter or Ostara corresponds the goddess Belisama, the goddess of Harmony and Beauty .

The Egg symbolically represents the Uroboros, that is the primordial Serpent that is usually represented while biting its tail, creating the geometrical figure in the shape of an "egg".


 The Egg represents not only the beginnings, but also the symbol of Life embodied in the figure of the goddess Belisama.


The custom of exchanging chocolate eggs on Easter morning and sending the children to the garden to look for the colored eggs that the Easter rabbit had hidden, are reminiscent of archaic times.

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

In Germany, for example, there is the custom that children, on the morning of Easter Sunday, called Ostern (but in Old Norse was called "Ostara"), go to search in the gardens of the houses for the eggs hidden by the "Easter bunny", in England fans of colored hard boiled eggs are rolled on the road until the shell is completely broken.


This tradition is linked to the cult of the goddess, in fact in pagan traditions the return of the goddess was celebrated by going to exchange "sacred" eggs under the tree considered "magic" of the village, a custom that connects Ostara to the fertile tree deities.


The symbol of the goddess is the hare or the rabbit which actually represents the same divinity that becomes immanent and conceives itself as a divinity of the woods.

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

 

 

 

 

 

The egg thus becomes a powerful talisman of fertility and life as evidenced by the customs of sacred Russian or Ukrainian eggs where the eating of this food would celebrate the rebirth of the sun and the return of the seasons of abundance.

​

Easter is a feast of ancient origins and is connected to natural rituals and the sacredness of trees, it would be nothing but another form of veneration, of that rural principle based on the death and rebirth of the spirit of vegetation often represented in the killing and resurrection of the Goddess Belisama.

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

 

 

 

 

 

The explanation of a ritual believed to be Christian, but which has its roots in paganism, opens up as if by magic.


Even the symbolism of the lamb or rather of the "kid" would be closely linked to the arboreal cult in the same meaning as the hare for the goddess Eostre, from which the festival takes the name of Ostara.


In fact, the goat gnaws at the barks of trees, damaging them considerably, so only the god of vegetation feeds on the plant it personifies, and therefore the same animal can only be sacred.
