I assume this is the pink candle on the advent wreath. The pink candle is lit on the 3rd Sunday of Advent. It represents joyful hope and joyful waiting for the coming of Jesus.

Why does the priest lit the paschal candle outside of the church on Easter?

During the Good Friday service (and in some traditions the Maundy Thursday service), all the lights are removed from a worship space, with the light of the paschal candle being the last to be removed/extinguished. Because the paschal candle specifically represents Christ's living presence among the people, by extinguishing the candle, we signify Jesus' death. Then, on Easter a fire is lit outside the church and the candle first lit to symbolize Christ's resurrection (usually with a new candle to symbolize new life). That light is then carried into the darkness of the church and from there the light spreads throughout the worshiping community. The symbolism would be ruined if you used a lighter or another candle to light the paschal candle in the worship space because it would no longer serve as the source of all light and life in our midst.
