I learnt this week the peacock was an early christian symbol for eternal life. The legend was that the peacock flesh didn’t decay. I like this symbol. I have always found Easter to be a time of letting go of older, worn out ways of being or thinking. I like the theme of regeneration and immortality.
Although I am not religious in practise, I have usually had some kind of insight or renewal of self at this time of the year. Now I look forward to it.
No it’s not just all about the hot cross buns and the chocolate, yet I wouldn’t be without those either!
