Forty Triangles Forty Triangles
Forty Triangles

Explore #499 - March 23, 2008 (My Birthday Present) Psyanky, or decorated Ukrainian Easter eggs symbolize nature's rebirth in the spring through Christian symbolism. This particular design, called the Forty Triangles, symbolizes Easter through the significance of the number forty, representing Christ's forty days in the desert, the forty tasks of every day life, and the forty-day Lenten period which ends on Easter day. It holds special significance for me this year, as this is the one and only time my birthday will fall on Easter... my 40th Birthday.
