Best Answer

It is called the Annunciation, which refers to the announcement of the Archangel Gabriel to the Blessed Virgin that God had favored her to be the mother of Our Savior. The Blessed Virgin's answer, in Latin, was Fiat. "Fiat" in Latin which tranlates literally as "let it be done" in English. So people speak of "Mary's fiat" to refer to her agreement to be the mother of her Lord.
