Thus, Easter may fall between March 22 and April 25. In spite of this, western and eastern Christians have different dates for Easter. The West lives by the Gregorian calendar and the East uses the Julian calendar which is 10 days behind the Gregorian. Easter is the queen of feasts. True Christians everywhere celebrate the resurrection.
Easter is prime time for rejoicing.
It is the church's happy day. The Lenten fast is ended, and there is rejoicing not only for a return to normal eating but for the fact that now there is no reason to fast. Easter means eternal life for the believer in Christ. This is symbolized by the abundance of flowers used on Easter. He is now the exalted Christ, the eternal Christ not touched by death.
