Catholic AnswerThe Solemnity of Mary on the 1st of January was instituted by Pope Paul VI after the Second Vatican Council. This is the Octave day of Christmas, and has always been a major feast, originally it was the Maternity of Mary, but it was moved and 1 January became the Feast of the Circumcision for the entire Church in the 16th century. It has been a holy day of Obligation since the Second Vatican Council.Wiki User
