Easter, celebrate or no?
Well since today is Easter, I was wondering if any Christian Witches participate in the holiday; and if so, how? Do you add anything on to it? Simply curious

Re: Easter, celebrate or no?
Hello 
I am a Spiritual Wiccan, and I celebrate Easter with my family. They don't know I'm a Wiccan but even if I was out of the broom closet I would still celebrate with them. It really is just Ostara with a Christian theme. I mean, Easter is a celebration of the rebirth of Jesus, sort of like Ostara's celebration of the the Earth and the Maiden Goddess. I think Christian's chose Easter in the spring near Ostara, so they too would be able to celebrate the life of their "savior". I thank Erin Dragonsong for that insight.
Blessed be
