The Assumption - August 15th. This is when we believe that the soul AND body of the Virgin Mary were raised to heaven having completed the course of her earthly life. Interestingly, this leaves open the question of whether she underwent bodily death.

(The Annunication is not a Holy Day of Obligation - The Annunciation - March 25th. Celebrates when the Angel came to Mary to announce the birth of the Saviour of the World. Catholics hold it in such esteem because of Mary's selfless decision to allow God to do his will in her life.)

The Immaculate Conception - December 8th. Celebrates the conception of Mary of her mother Saint Anne as Mary was preserved from all stain of Original Sin and given the grace normally conferred in baptism.

.

Roman Catholic AnswerThe major feast day of the Blessed Virgin Mary is Solemnity of Mary which is the Octave Day of Christmas - 1 January. The Assumption and the Immaculate Conception are also Holy Days of Obligation that primarily are honoring the Blessed Mother.

How do Catholics honor Mary on her feast days?

There are several ways of honoring the Blessed Virgin Mary on her feast days (as laid down by the Roman Catholic Church) firstly attending Mass on that day has become a tradition for Catholics as is leading a procession for Mary sing Marian hymns (prayerful songs especially composed for Mary) or praying the rosary (a set of prayers allegedly taught by Mary to St Dominic in an apparition). Special prayers are offered on this day asking for Her intercession, help and guidance in issues such as, praying for another child, praying for peace or praying for a husband..Roman Catholic AnswerCatholics honor the Blessed Virgin Mary at all times, but especially on her feast days. We do this, as we should be doing everything, in imitation of Our Blessed Lord, who, as the Sacred Scriptures tell us, honored her and obeyed her His whole Life. The only thing that the Blessed Mother has ever said is summed up in the Scripture verse of St. John's Gospel, 2:5 "Whatsoever He shall say to you, do ye." In other words we honor her specifically by obeying Her, by following Her Son, and obeying Him, Our Blessed Lord.
