Easter is the oldest Christian holiday and the most important Solemnity of the Church year. The Church dates and celebrations are arranged around Easter. Our Easter meal usually includes lamb, cakes, breads, and eggs
—foods that symbolize Christ's Resurrection and use ingredients typically not eaten during Lent. The season of Easter begins after Easter Sunday and lasts for seven weeks, ending with Pentecost.

The Paschal Candle is used during the Easter Vigil on Holy Saturday night and remains in the sanctuary during the Easter Season (it's lit each day throughout the Season for Mass).
The candle represents Christ, the Light of the world. The pure beeswax symbolizes His sinlessness; the wick, His humanity; and the flame, His Divine Nature. The five grains of incense embedded into the candle represent His five wounds (in His hands, feet, and side). Sometimes the incense is placed into wax nails embedded in the candle. The first and last letters of the Greek alphabet (Alpha and Omega) signify Christ is the beginning and the end.
