Cross with Pussy Willow

This is a diasporan design adapted from a pysanka featured in Ukrainian Easter Eggs and How We Make Them (Egg No. 2).

On this pysanka:
Pussy willow: anticipation of spring
St. Andrew's Cross (X): Patron saint of Ukraine
Baskets: knowledge and motherhood (diasporan)
Ram's horns/curly cues: strength, leadership, creativity
Eight-pointed star: sun symbol, God's love
Ladders: rising above small problems
