Easter is one of the most significant Orthodox holidays, both in Russia and among Christians around the world. Along with Christmas, Easter is celebrated on a "grand scale", with all the "breadth of the Russian soul."

This Bright holiday is endowed with its own traditions and special dishes, which are prepared exclusively on this day.

When Easter 2018 is celebrated: date and traditions

One of the features of Light Easter is that it does not have a specific date for celebration. Only the day remains unchanged - Sunday. Every year, the Orthodox celebration is celebrated either in April or in May. What determines such a spread in dates?

To find out what date Easter will fall on, use the lunar calendar. Determining this is not difficult, the main thing is to know the schedule of all the cycles of the moon. On the first Sunday, which comes after the first spring phase of the full moon, an Orthodox holiday falls. On this basis, church calendars are compiled.

Holiday traditions

What does the Bright Holiday of Easter bring with it? It is always light, faith in the best and infinite superiority of life and goodness over the world of darkness and death.

The celebration is accompanied by Orthodox traditions dating back to ancient times. Of course, many of them have outlived their usefulness or have radically transformed, but many still remain relevant to this day.

The commemoration of deceased relatives, friends and loved ones on this holiday remains unchanged. In some regions of Russia, on this day, visits are made to cemeteries to honor the memory, despite the fact that, according to tradition, this action is performed a week after Easter.

Another traditional action is the observance of "Maundy Thursday", which takes place 3 days before the main celebration. On this day, Orthodox people put things in order in their home, their thoughts and body, that is, they bring cleanliness.

But, perhaps, the most important and beloved tradition for all is the painting of Easter eggs and the baking of Easter cake, which are symbols of Easter. Many now make it easier for themselves to prepare for the holiday by simply buying ready-made Easter cakes, the choice of which is huge on store shelves.

Another of the symbols of the holiday is Great Lent, which, according to tradition, should be kept for 48 days, and its completion falls on Easter Sunday. Fasting is observed for spiritual and physical cleansing.

However, few at present strictly observe all the prescriptions of Fasting, since the modern rhythm of life and refusal of food are incompatible things. And the Orthodox Church is now loyal to the fact of refusing to Fast, believing that the main thing for a person is to purify his thoughts.

On the eve of Easter night, services are held in temples and churches, accompanied by the consecration of festive food - eggs and cakes, which are then placed on the table. By the way, there is a fun tradition in the egg-breaking competition, the meaning of which is who will break them the most.

Another Christian tradition during the celebration of Easter is to say "Christ is Risen!" as a sign of greeting.

These symbolic actions, timed to coincide with the celebration of Easter, are happily observed by millions of Orthodox Russians.

Easter is also the day of the end of Lent, so the festive table abounds in various dishes. But, the main symbols of the holiday are present on every table in every home. These are Easter colored eggs, Easter cake and Easter cottage cheese, which are prepared with various tasty, sweet additions.

What to cook delicious for Easter? Since eggs are the “nail” of the festive menu, they can be used in various dishes, for example, salads, pies and pies, make aspic out of them, stuff with various fillings.

Also, the presence of meat dishes from beef and poultry will not be superfluous. The baskets filled with various fruits and sweets make a great addition as a treat.

In most Russian families, it is customary to cook for Easter:

• aspic;
• jellied meat;
• all kinds of salads;
• pickles;
• sausages;
• pies.
