    How do I celebrate Easter as a pagan?
    Community Answer
    Community Answer
    The Pagan equivalent (and origin) of Easter is Ostara, the Spring Equinox Sabbat. Pagans don't celebrate Ostara on the Christian day of Easter, but can enjoy the bunnies and eggs with those who do as it's in the same time period. If your parents celebrate Easter, you can have chocolate and enjoy their party (minus the possible churchy parts), knowing the true roots and meaning of it.

    You don't have to decorate your room, this is only if you want to. You can't decorate your room, but maybe you can manage to decorate other places in your house? You should ask your parents/roommates first before you do so.

    Litha is a celebration of the Sun King reaching the peak of his power and beginning to decline. Depending on the mythos you follow, this may be the day he dies. Try decorating with roses, watching the sunset, and possibly having a bonfire.

    The first thing you need to remember is that you are a very lucky individual to be able to celebrate the holidays with loved ones, it is a thing to be cherished and celebrated. Remember that the holidays are all about loving, caring, and giving unto others. If you focus on that, you will forget all about anything else.
