MYSTERIES OF ELEUSIS

The Mysteries of Eleusis celebrated Persephone’s return to the world of the living, thus the beginning of spring. Since she ate seeds, a symbol of life, during her stay in the underworld, the return is symbolic of the rebirth of all plant life in spring and in the larger context of all life on earth.
