For many people, Easter isn't about the Easter bunny or coloring eggs to hide then gather in a pastel be-ribboned Easter basket. It is a major Christian feast or holy day centered around the cruxification and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Different colors are used at different times in the celebration of Easter and it varies by religion. However, the colors most closely associated with Christianity and Easter in particular are red, purple, black, white, and gold.
Red can denote joy and celebration. Purple is associated with royalty and spirituality. White is purity. Black is the color of death and mourning. Gold represents something of value or high quality..
