Eggs are common during Easter time as they symbolize the empty tomb of Jesus. Though an egg appears to be like the stone of a tomb, a bird hatches from it with life; similarly, the Easter egg, for Christians, is a reminder that Jesus rose from the grave, and that those who believe will also experience eternal life.

The custom of the Easter egg originated amongst the early Christians of Mesopotamia, who stained eggs red in memory of the blood of Christ, shed at his crucifixion.

An egg symbolizes many different things like; the roundness of an egg resembles the earth and the life on it which is constantly moving in a circular path.
An egg also resembles life - since all of us were born from an egg. An egg is also said to be the customary food for mourners and was brought to Jerusalem after the demolition of the temple. An egg also represents the spring period since Passover is celebrated during the season of spring.
