In the traditional liturgy and in the modern liturgy, the Ceremonies of Easter Vigil (held on Holy Saturday) were initially either black or purple for the blessing of the New Fire, and the Pashcal Candle. After that, at the procession of the candle and the singing of the Exsultet, the vestments were changed to white/gold to celebrate the rising of Christ from the Dead.
