Does Japan celebrate Easter?
The Buddhists in Japan do not celebrate this holiday. Easter is a pagan holiday celebrating the goddess Ishtar, or goddess of fertility. That is why there are such things as eggs (fertility) and bunnies (which make lots of babies). Easter is not when Jesus rose from the dead. That notion was started by the Catholic Church as a way to control what they saw as pagan practices. They spread this myth so that the pagans and the Christians would not go to war with one another.
What are the wiccan gods?
It depends on the type of Wiccan. Gardnerian/British Traditional Wiccans believe in a Goddess,commonly 3-faced (Mother,Maiden,& Crone),and a God.Dianistic Wiccans only believe in a Goddess(still 3-faced). If you want more information,see the Wikipedia article at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wicca Answer Also, depending on the tradition, many Wiccans will choose to work with a particular pantheon, be it Greek, Roman, Chinese, Hindu, or Celtic. I find that the Celtic gods work for me because Wicca has its roots partially in the Celtic pagan religions of old.

What is the spring holiday celebrated by Wiccans?
I believe that you are talking about Ostara, the vernal equinox. Ostara is a pagan festival and is believed to be the origin of Easter, the same way that Samhain was the origin of Halloween. Wiccans dedicate this festival to the goddess Eostre (Goddess of Fertility). Wiccans pull up flowers and dance around in a circle. They eat "vegetables, dairy foods, pumpkins, sprouts, and certain flower dishes". The special flowers/herbs that they use are "Daffodils, Jonquils, Woodruff, Violets, Gorse, Olives, Peonies, Irises, Narcissus, and various other spring flowers." They use special flower incenses, especially Jasmine, Rose, and Strawberry incense. Many Wiccans also start a Magickal herb garden, or they talk long walks as they reflect on the beauty of Mother Nature.
