In the midst of Ostara with rituals and symbols of fertility everywhere.  The egg represents the beginning of life with the yolk representing the sun and the white representing the moon.  Ostara is always held after the Vernal Equinox when the hours of sunlight exceed those of the night.  A chicken will not produce and lay an egg until sunlight exceeds 12 hours.  I always wondered why the rabbit is chosen as a symbol of fertility while other species are far more prolific than rabbits.  I guess it wouldn't do  though, to have an Easter Rat delivering tiny birds eggs produced by sparrows. Coming up though, in a few days, it will be the first Sunday after the first full moon after the Vernal Equinox.  For most everybody in this country; It's known as Easter Sunday.
