Happy Feminist Easter/Eostre/Ishtar! Easter was actually a pagan - TopicsExpress



          

Happy Feminist Easter/Eostre/Ishtar! Easter was actually a pagan holiday, linked to the spring equinox & moon phases. The erasure of the mother goddesses once celebrated was key in the subjugation of womankind. So heres some Easter history: Sumerian goddess Ishtar was hung naked on a stake and then resurrected & ascended from the underworld. Eostre, also Ostara, is a powerful mother goddess of fertility (her symbol was the rabbit). Every Easter I like to remember Eostre, Ishtar, Ostara and all the mother goddesses. Women symbolized life and were revered instead of punished for it at one point in time. Fighting to restore that world again! Happy Eostre, everyone! #KnowYourGoddesses #KeepinItPagan
