The practice of making Pysanky, Ukrainian Easter Eggs, dates back to ancient times long before the Christian era when Ukrainians worshipped the sun god Dazhboh, which they saw warmed the earth and nurtured new life. Eggs decorated with nature motifs became part of spring rituals. Later Christians embraced the egg as a symbol of the rebirth of all creation
realized through the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
The tradition of making Pysanky was prohibited by the Soviet Union along with all religious practices but with Ukrainian independence in 1991 it was revived. This craft in the meantime had also been maintained by Ukrainian Canadians.
To give a pysanka is to give a symbolic gift of life,
something we all deeply desire for the people of Ukraine.
